Elfwood Review Board
Bio:The Elfwood Review Board (ERB) was formed to ensure compliance of Elfwood Rules & Regulations by all members. Elfwood is already a huge site and continues to grow even larger every day. As such, more and more cases of plagiarized art or galleries not in concordance with the guidelines are reported each day. To make life easier for everybody, the ERB was founded to assist Thomas in enforcing of the Rules & Regulations of the site.

The ERB does not deal in censorship. If an artwork or story was removed, it was in violation of the Rules. The ERB is NOT responsible for quality control. They deal only in subject matter, not how good or bad the artwork is (this, however, does not mean you can insult their intelligence by uploading stickmen knights into your gallery).

***IMPORTANT***
The ERB has NOTHING to do with the Moderators!

The Moderators are responsible for reviewing every piece uploaded to Elfwood, to make sure that it follows the rules. The ERB are responsible for removing works that violate the rules of Elfwood. If you have a question or complaint about Moderator decisions, please use the support form or reply to your moderation email. Do NOT use the ERB form, this will NOT get you an answer to your concern.

ERB personnel are made up of Elfwood Members. Names will not be published. The people also vary over time, as it is stressful work. The ERB has been given full authority by Thomas Abrahamsson to carry out their duties in enforcing the Rules & Regulations. Each member has been personally selected and approved by him.

The ERB's line of work includes but is not limited to:

- Reports of stolen or plagiarized material
- Reports of Inappropriate Material
- Harassment among Elfwood members

The ERB receives and deals with dozens of reports in a day. Because of the sheer number of people we deal with and the variety of personalities and lives, conflicts unfortunately do arise above and beyond merely rule violations.

Here's a few useful tips to remember:
- Make sure your report or message is complete, clear and concise. Supply all the relevant names, URLs and your reasons for contacting us.
- We prefer it if there is a way for us to contact you. In some cases, people send us incoherent messages and we can't help them because we don't understand what they want and we can't email back for clarification because there is no email address.
- Be patient. It often happens that the problem is a program-related bug that we too are unaware of. When in doubt, ask again.
- Please don't be a hypersensitive whiner. We don't have time to write flowery formal letters with full salutations. We DO use form letters. If there is a need to contact you, we'll go straight to the point.

If you wish to contact us, you can use the report form found here.
