Welcome to the Fullmetal Alchemist Yaoi Community, hosted by Dreamwidth! This community is for the posting of yaoi fan fiction, fan art, and/or discussion dedicated to the anime series Fullmetal Alchemist.

Yaoi, in short, is male/male (gay) relations. This can range from fluff to erotica. With that said, it is possible that the community will host content that is unsuitable for browsing at work, younger readers, or those with tender sensibilities. Please use discretion and read all warnings. We cannot be responsible if you choose to view something inappropriate.

A few rules, taken from the original fma_yaoi community, since it said it well:

1. Respect Others. In this community there is no spamming, trolling, flaming, stirring up trouble, wanking or being disrespectful to other users. Period. If you don't quit, you'll be banned.
2. No Spamming. Spamming includes off-topic entries, 'looking for a fic' entries, entries without content ('content' means fan material like fanfics, requests/challenges to produce fanworks or discussion) and posting multiple entries at once. People caught spamming may be banned.
3. NO ADS. No ads for other communities, sales, auctions, etc.
4. Use the LJ-Cut. Some people are on really slow dial-up, may be checking the community from work or school, or just don't want to clog their friends pages. So, when posting a long fanfiction, a big picture or more than a couple small pictures: use the cut. If you don't know what the cut is, it is < lj-cut text="More..." > YOUR CUT POST < /lj-cut > without the spaces by < and >. (Dreamwidth supports the LJ-Cut feature as posted before, so no worries!)
5. Icons/Graphics/Doujins. Stolen fan-art is not permitted in this community. Not giving credit to the artist in your post will be cause for ban. This includes doujinshi where the scanner, scanslator or circle has not been credited.

When posting fanworks, please use the following or a similar format for easier tagging and reading:

TITLE OF FANWORK
Author/Artist: username/penname
Pairing:
Rating: (G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17)
Warnings:
Summary: A quote from the fanfiction.
(An LJ-Cut or link/fake cut to the Work)
