Why did you write a fanfiction?
I am a huge fan of Dragon Ball, and was inspired to write my own fan ifction when I stumbled onto this Wiki. I clicked on one of the recently updated pages and read the story. The storyline was absolutely dreadful, and for awhile I thought that fanfictions were stupid. But, I started thinking about the Wiki, and I wanted to write my own. I had already thought of plenty of ideas I wished had been put in the original storyline, so I built my sagas and villains around them. And thus, Dragon Ball ST was born.

Why did you call your fanfiction Dragon Ball ST?
Originally, I wanted to return to the Dragon Ball-style of adventure, where they had to go on a great journey again. I wanted this journey to be traveled on by only Goku and Vegeta, and so, I decided to use the letters ST to distinguish it. ST stands for Saiyan Tales, and as you can see, I meant for Goku and Vegeta to become great legends, more so than before. When reading the early sections of the Buu Reborn saga, you can see how I originally planned this out, with Goku and Vegeta travelling to the dead planet.

Why did you end Dragon Ball ST the way you did?
I wanted it to end in a way that meant the Z Fighters would be very hard to write into a story where they are the main characters. Otherwise, everything just gets too overpowered and repetitive

Why don't you have movie characters in your story?
The official Dragon Ball trilogy series doesn't have movie characters in them (except for Cooler's cameo in GT), so I wanted it to be like that. I consider nearly all movies non-canon, and so I think that they shouldn't be included. I don't mind movie characters in fanfiction specials, as they are often non-canon to the fanfiction, but I generally don't like it when movie characters are in the main plot.

Why are making another sequel to the Dragon Ball series?
For starters, I know that I have already said that I want the series to finish completely. What I meant by that was I wanted the story of the Z Fighters to finish. I originally had several ideas for a sequel to ST about halfway through the Creation Saga but dismissed it as I intended for Dark Kai to be the final villain. Then, after writing Terror of Makros, I thought, "What if I made a fan fiction where the main characters aren't the Z Fighters?" And so the idea was born. My new project will be a spin-off sequel to ST, and will be set 200 years after the end. The main characters will not be related to the Z Fighters, and will be original creations of my own.

What's your favourite fan fiction on this site?
Honestly, I'd have to say Dragon Ball Z: The Forgotten. It is set in a time period where there isn't much history that can be put to good use with a good imagination, and I think KidVegeta has done an excellent job with that. The original characters are well crafted and interesting, as well as keeping true to the already-existing characters' personalities. It is truly a great and enjoyable read, with the style of writing very different when compared to other fan fictions. If I had to rate it, I would give it 9 out of 10 fire trucks.

Will you make me an administrator??!
No. We aren't currently looking for a new administrator and will not promote any users that ask.

Why did Hyper Zergling post that ugly template on my page, and can you block him?!
Hyper Zergling has permission to post that particular template on your page without permission, so don't go around saying he's a vandal or something.

The template posted on your page would most probably have been the NCF template (Not Canon-Friendly). That template lets you, the author, know there is a canon conflict in your story that needs to be resolved. This can be be done in one of two ways; post a template at the top that says your fanon is Alternate Universe (AU), or go back and resolve the problem manually by rewriting certain passages.

But it's Fanon!! We can do whatever we want!
Yes, you can post whatever you want, but it should be within the constraints and limitations set by the Dragon Ball universe. When you break those constraints (ie. saying Krillin is a Saiyan ) you are no longer writing Dragon Ball Fanon.

If a smaller event, such as Pikkon and Goku's fight, is contradicted, it can be easily fixed and it's done with. But, if a larger event, like Goku surviving the Cell Games but still fighting Pikkon in the Otherworld Tournament, then it must be corrected.

Now, crossovers are a different story. Usually, one can tell when a story is a crossover but it's better to post a template at the top stating it is a crossover. These aren't classified as non-canon as it is different.

If you have more questions, ask me on my talk page and I will answer you, as well as post it here.
