The already IS a tf_betas community - been around since last year.

And I'm perfectly aware of that. In fact, they link here. However, that does not mean that a list here wouldn't be useful as well.

There's also a list of Betas for Transformers on FanFiction.Net. I still plan to keep this list here.

I didn't realize anyone would complain about this.

How to contact me: Either PM me on FF.net (I have the same pen name there) or email me at Aquamarine.of.sea@gmail.com.
Ratings I'm Willing to Beta: G - NC17 (The higher the better--I don't have much patience for a very long story if it strains to stay good for kids.)
Characters/Pairings I'm Willing to Beta: If it involves Perceptor, I will beta it. No exceptions.
Characters/Pairings I Will Not Beta: I'm very loose about what I will beta. Basically, if it involves Perceptor, I'll read it. If it doesn't, I will still beta if it is short or I am interested in the plot.
Warnings I Will Not Beta: I will beta anything. Seriously. You name it, I'll beta it. Pedophilia, explicit sex (heterosexual or otherwise), graphic violence, child abuse, controversial views, inflammatory works... really, the only thing I can think of that I wouldn't beta is a story that is too cookie-cutter, close-minded, or conservative in mindset.
Strengths: Mostly content. I'm good for keeping people IC, but I'm also good about giving leeway for alternative character interpretations. I'm also good for keeping realism in things and working with the mechanics of writing, such as spelling, grammar, etc.
Weaknesses: I'm slow and I am more of a big-picture girl. I will pick at a couple little things, but I generally give big suggestions and leave you to decide what you want to do about it if anything at all.
Other Notes: Seriously, it's not a bad thing to just ask me. I'm always available to ask.

It's nice to see that I'm not the only one who likes Perceptor. I currently have a story in the works but it's not yet ready to be beta'd. It features Perceptor as a major character. The rating is high, so no kids allowed. Also, if you ever want to debate about something or discuss Transformers, I'm here.

That's cool. Keep me in mind when you're done. ;)

How to contact me: E-mail me at spooky_puss@hotmail.com or through ff.net on ~sybertyger.

Ratings I'm Willing to Beta: Everything(includes slash).

Characters/Pairings I'm Willing to Beta: Any and all... especially Prowl and Jazz.

Characters/Pairings I Will Not Beta: I'll beta any pairing.

Warnings I Will Not Beta: Nothing. Gore and interfacing don't bother me one bit.

Strengths: Grammar, Spelling, Punctuation, flow and plot holes.

Weaknesses: None that I know of.

Other Notes: OC stories are a personal favorite of mine :D
Also, I find long stories more fun than short stories, but I am still more than happy to beta short ones.


I hope I can help someone out!
