"*sigh* EVERYONE back to the one word per post rule unless it is a compound word or a proper noun - which must be captilaised."
Um... No.
for 65 pages we had that rule - and now you want to change it? Ptth!Where does it stop? Lee just had "Awoke with a jerk" - if you wanted to just allow things like 'a' and 'the' fine but Awoke, with and jerk are all points where different posters could change the outcome of the story.

It's not that they're hard to add. It's just that it sucks to be the one to have to post "the" or "on" or whatever when the guy before you would probably have done so himself ANYWAY.

I agree with that - but do we limit to the 'most used' ten prepositions and conjunctions. As I found there are more than just the or to or on or a... Then we, as I said get into words that carry a heavier weight in dictating the course of the story like: beneathe, beside, outside, until, during, except etc. It opens a Pandora's Box!
