Guide to writing:
Rule #1: When refering to people in writing, use their names, not abbriviations used to refer to them in IRC. (Example: When refering to Warmaker in writing, do not use WM, use Warmaker. Using WM is fine for talking in IRC, but would your character be saying that? Not likely.)

Rule #2: When using words like 'are' and 'you' type out the words, do not use 'r' and 'u' in their place. The same goes for '2' and 'to', 'two', or 'too'.

Rule #3: Learn the correct uses of words like 'their', 'there', and 'they're' and 'to', 'two' and 'too', and use them correctly when writing.

Rule #4: Use a spelling and grammer checker, if the majority of your text is underlined in green and/or red (MS Word references), its a safe bet you can delete the whole thing and start over.

Rule #5: Be aware of what your character can and cannot do. (Example: Average pilot CAN shoot down several Rebel craft. Average pilot CANNOT single handedly destroy entire Rebel squadrons and then finish off the Rebel mothership.)

(more to come, thanks to the Elite Griffen Sect for some of these)
