  1. and Sympathy for the Devil is DONE! Final two chapters are off to the beta. Time to celebrate!

  2. *starts cackling evilly then cracks knuckles and gets to work*

  3. Alright, first and foremost, I’m going to say I’m a blunt being. That’s why I don’t chime in on many of these threads as people take what I say, and how it’s said, wrong. With that being said, I’m going to jump into this. Starting off, I’m going to stay one thing very clearly. Dyslexia is not an excuse to put out anything that is poor in quality. Period. End of story. I’m dyslexic and I don’t do such a thing. I’m also published. Yes, it’s a struggle to work with it but it’s not an excuse to do so. It just takes you slowing down and going about things differently. Help from a beta would also assist in cleaning up mistakes you make on such things because of it. There are ways around it; all you need do is look for them. The other thing I’m going to say is this; though I know you’ve had problems with trolls, especially on The Pit, the realism is that if you can’t handle such things, writing isn’t for you. Trolls are like ants at a picnic. They happen. And, the thing is, the more they know they’ve gotten to you, the more they are going to do it and push harder. If there is a site that doesn’t rein in such beings, get off it and go to other ones. If they follow, report their ass. It’s that simple. They might not be able to do much but they can help. Beyond that, you ignore them. Trust me, I’ve had my share of the beasts. When you don’t respond or let them get to you, they get bored and move on. Now, I’m going to say something that you might not think is supportive or what you’re looking for but it’s factual… If you can’t handle the concrit reviews or someone telling you that you’re doing something wrong, writing isn’t for you. You are going to get them. Though you might not like what they say, the realism is that you probably need to listen. Especially if it’s been said by several people. Writing, and how you do it, is an ever evolving thing that you should nurture and make grow. It changes a great deal over time. You can’t change if you don’t realize you are doing something wrong and just stick to what you are over and over. Now, you said you had one you wanted to publish. I’m here to tell you from experience that if you can’t take the reviews, don’t submit it. First, there are something most authors will get at least once over their life; rejection letters. Then, if it is picked up for publication, the edit process you have to go through to get it ready will about kill you. I’ve been through it five times now. Some of the editors are very nice about it and some make the overly harsh concrit in the archive for stories look nice. It’s bad, even if they are nice. It’s horrific if they aren’t. You do it and go through it, though, to put out the best product you can. Dealing with some in the archive is nothing compared to that process, trust me. If you can’t deal with the concrit or other things, you won’t survive this and will be in tears over the whole thing. I’m not trying to be mean here, just lay out the facts of how it goes. Please try to take it that way.
  4. Thank you! I would kiss you if you were here...
  5. Vore (erotic cannibalism) and extreme violence. Doing the sweep, we're running across both of these a lot and they are something that needs a warning on.
  6. if ti's a joint in my body, it hurts this morning >.<

      We should! we can send him here. Even trade if you ask me...

  7. Harry Potter with a side of Heather Dale; the perfect way to start the New Year!

  8. Heaven forbid, though, if we point out to someone that they make mistakes or need help. After all, this isn't a professional writing site and we shouldn't treat things in it as such. Or we hold the written word that people post to a standard of readability that doesn't want to make you spork your eyes out or you need a version of Babel Fish to figure out what was said. And, sorry, not buying the dyslexia excuse for poor writing either as I am one that suffers from it and i sure as heck don't put that kind of horribly written stuff out there! Sorry, all the excuses out there for poor writing are just that... excuses! There are ways to get help or fix it if you want to, most just think they don't have to bother. </rant> *goes back to hiding*
  9. Happy Birthday, Apollo

      Ooops! I meant Dec. 28th. I was looking at the date Dany posted the original.

  10. OK, I think I found it. If it's the story located in Games this is the disclaimer you have... that doesn't have any of the points we need in the disclaimer. Here is the FAQs on Disclaimers and what is needed.... http://www2.adult-fanfiction.org/forum/index.php/topic/3560-what-is-needed-in-a-disclaimer/
  11. where is the story located, such as Anime, Harry Potter, Originals, etc? We can't do much without knowing where it is so we can go look
  12. listens to the thunder outside and whines that i don't want to go to work in this mess

  13. make sure you're not using the center login box to sign in. There is a known issue with it. Beyond that, try dumping the cookies and clearing the cache. If that doesn't work, our head tech will get with you as soon as she can. it's a holiday so it may not be until tomorrow sometime. Sorry!
  14. I pulled Kryptonite off the web everywhere, sorry.
  15. And we has Tom Bakker as Dr. Who! HUZZAHSSSSSSSSSSSS

    can you give more details? That's a common plot in those threesome fics. I can think of a few right off the top of my head with that going, including a couple of mine. So, more details are needed.
  23. OK, we'll take a look and see what we can determine! Just some FYI; if they are what we call 'current', uploaded within the last week, we'll get to them on our normal sweep of the archive. But this one appears to have been missed and we'll handle it.
  24. very good question! And, yes, you should. To report them, please send the story link or ID number to tos_team@adultfanfiction.net or hit the lil report link on the bottom of the story, whichever is easier. Make sure you tell us what the issue is on them so we know what to look for. Or, if it's easier on you, you can report em here.
