FAQOkay, so most of these questions haven’t be asked but they’re either generally the kind of questions clubs like this get asked or just should have been asked.

General

Q. What is yuri and shojo-ai?
A. Shojo-ai is Japanese for ‘girl love’ and is a general name for the romantic relationship between two girls in a fictional series (Generally anime or manga). Yuri is more hardcore, focus around sex, which isn’t generally allowed on DA. But since yuri is the word generally used by most for girl love and is shorter it gets used in the club’s name.
Q. Why make a club about YGO yuri?
A. There are already about three clubs dedicated to YGO yaoi but no one had started one for yuri, so I thought it’d be a good idea. Although the yuri fans in YGO are few hopefully this club will help to bring them together. ^^
Q. Are all girl/girl YGO couples allowed?
A. Yep, any you can think of.
Q. Are girls from YGO R and YGO GX allowed?
A. Yes they are. I just didn’t list them because I don’t know much about those series.
Q. Are you allowed to pair an official girl with a female fan character?
A. Yes, that’s fine.
Q. Are you allowed to pair a YGO girl with a girl from another series?
A. Yeah, crossover couples are welcome. ^^
Q. Are shippings that involve two girls with one or more boys allowed?
A. I thought for a while over this but unfortunately I’ll have to say no. The reason being that most yaoi communities don’t allow relationships that have two boys with one or more girls so I think we’ll keep the club to all girls. Even though members should try to be open minded to male characters and relationships involving them.

Q. How do I send in pictures/fanfics?
A. I get this a lot from people new to the Internet, but if you want to send in a picture/fanfic follow these instructions:
1. Click on the link to the picture/fanfic you want to send in
2. Highlight the address in the white bar by right clicking on it
3. Then select “Copy” from the list that comes up
4. Go to the club’s account and select “Send Note”
5. Right click in the box where you type your note and choose “Paste”
6. If you’re successful the link to your picture/fanfic will be put into the box. You can then type whatever message you want with it and send the note to the club.
Q. Do you have to send in pictures/fanfics?
A. No, you don't have to. It's only if you want to.
Q. Can het and/or yaoi couples be present in pictures/fanfics?
A. Sure, as long as at least one yuri couple is present. ^^
Q. Do the pictures/fanfics have to be on DA?
A. No, but it’d be better if they are.
Q. Can you draw/write about female versions of yaoi (E.g. female versions of Ryou and Yugi)? Or het couples where both members are girls (E.g. Anzu and a female Otogi)?
A. That’s fine.

Supportive Paragraph Related Questions
---
Q. Do I have to send in supportive paragraphs?
A. No, it's just if you want to express why you like a certain relationship.
Q. Can I send in a paragraph bashing a couple?
A. No, that's not the point of supportive paragraphs. The point is to write why you like a couple.
Q. Can I say I like one couple because another couple is stupid?
A. No. It's fine to not like a couple but we'd prefer to keep couple hate out of this club.
Q. The shojo-ai relationship I want to send in a paragraph for isn't on the list; does this mean I can't send in a paragraph for it?
A. You can send in a paragraph for a relationship even if it isn't on the list.
Q. Can I send in Official/Fan Character or YGO Girl/Crossover Character paragraphs?
A. Yep.
Q. Do I send supportive paragraphs in via notes or comments?
A. Notes are preferred but comments work to.

Website Related Question
---
Q. Can you list my website/Message board/fan listing?
A. As long as it's related to a YGO yuri relationship and doesn't bash other couples.
---
Contest Related Questions
---
Q. Do I have to enter a contest?
A. No, they’re optional.
Q. Can I suggest a theme for a contest?
A. As long as it's sensible and doesn't bash any other couples, but I'm not short of ideas usually. ^_^

Members and Affiliates Related Questions
---
Q. How come you don’t add people who watch the club without noting to the members list?
A. Because I’ve had problems with this in the past. Originally when someone watched the club without noting I’d note them asking if they’d want to join. But not once did I ever receive a reply to these notes, which I thought was quite rude. Since then I’ve decided to just ignore those who watch the club without noting.
Q. Do you want to affiliate with my club?
A. Usually I say yes to this question but if you run an anti-club the chances are the answer will be no (Unless it’s an anti-theft club or something along those lines, then I’d be more then happy to affiliate). This might seem biased but the club is against the promotion of hate in general.
