Update; I can now click it but comes back up asking me again

I activated your account manually, so you should be able to proceed.

Thank you both for responding. In my (partial) defence, if I click on ‘archive’ at the top of this page it takes me to the age-verification page where I’m stuck. I see that the page is titled ‘News’ in the tab identifier but it’s not what comes up when I searched for news on the site search tool and it’s no use for getting to any information if you first have to pass the age-verification WHICH DOES NOT WORK. Given the complications and my personal lack of sophistication, and that there is only one story on this site that I’m currently following, I think I have no alternative but to leave it unless or until I find another browser that I can start afresh with. I might just say as farewell that I have followed literally hundreds of sites in 30 years of using the iinternet and this kind of problem has never arisen before. Thank you for all your efforts.

As @BronxWench said, there is a difference between clearing cache and clearing history. You want to clear the cached images and files.

I activated the account. Now try it.

Given the current tech market, might be the way we’re all heading.

I’m sorry it took me a few days to get to this, but I discovered that @GeorgeGlass left a review for Meaningful Gifts! Thank you! 😊 It took me longer than anticipated to write it, even just considering this year, but I’m glad the extra time paid off! Thanks again! This in particular means a lot to me because it was one of the main focuses during the writing process. I don’t want to repeat what I said responding to JayDee too much, but the thing that kind of made this story, at least when it formed in my head, was that it’s the story of a life together. Lexi and Drew are siblings who, partly due to an unpleasant childhood, have been developing into a couple over the course of many years, so all of those little moments of deepening intimacy between them were an integral part of the story for me, and I’m really glad that worked for you. 😄 Yeah, I was trying to sketch out differences over the siblings, and when I wrote in Lexi drinking coffee as the mandatory Folgers Christmas commercial reference, it felt like a perfect opportunity to describe her little brother finding it gross. I’m really happy I finally got to show it to you all. Thanks for the review!

I’m showing your account as not having been reactivated after the last software upgrade. Try starting from the home page here: https://www.adult-fanfiction.org/ If you are able to get past the age verification, you’ll need to request the activation link to be sent to you.

didn’t work

You all are making me miss my IBM PC XT, with its blazing fast 8088 CPU, 64k of RAM, and that spanky 10MB hard drive. And talk about operating systems? MS-DOS, baby! (I blew up 2 XTs and an AT before they gave me a PS 2, guaranteed not to faint under pressure.)

Humour me and try directly from the home page https://www.adult-fanfiction.org/

On my tablet, I did the reset steps but when the age verification screen comes up and I click the green one, nothing happens.

If you can’t get it by FTP, is it even worth getting?

Hi! Apologies to Jashley for somewhat hijacking his thread, but… The home page of the archive is headed “Latest News” which is also linked to the Site Announcements on the forums. I think the cookies issue as far as losing everything is valid. Chrome (my browser of choice) used to allow me to delete specific cookies. It may well still do so, but I just threw in the towel and deleted everything. As far as the historical cache, Chrome differentiates between browsing history and cached images and files. I deleted the cached materials, but not the browsing history, and I was able to log in. I just had to do it a couple of times, because I was also in and out of the beta version, which was also setting cookies and cacheing files. When browsing in incognito mode, the browser will not allow cookies to be saved, so that’s why we ask that you turn off incognito mode until you’ve logged in and set the new site cookies. Once you’ve logged in, you can go back to incognito mode. I don’t know if this helps, but I do hope it will at least clarify.

Thank you for responding but … Sorrry to sound/be stupid but when you say ‘News’ do you mean ‘Site Announcements’? And if so, is this what we have to do? ==” Posted Monday at 01:04 PM There are many having issues at the moment. We are aware, and there are things that a user has to do in order for everything to work correctly. First thing, before you proceed. DO NOT use anonymous browsing for this part. You can go back to it afterwards. No matter WHICH browser, you must clear cache and cookies for ALL TIME. After doing the clear, close and restart your browser. Finally, you need to force refresh. (Press Ctrl+F5) “ If it is, I’m somewhat perturbed. I use this browser for a number of activities, some of which involve signing in, referring to memberships and all sorts of historic data. Do I have eto throw all that away to regain access to this site? Or is there a way in which I can clear the cache and cookies and so on that relate to just this site? If I really have to erase ALL my past history of ALL sites that I’ve used this browser on … well! I undestand that my problems are no skin off your nose but I may not be the only one confronted by this challenge! Or perhaps I’ve misunderstood and there’s a different ‘News” forum wiht much more logical instructions?

God we all missed you here, JayDee. It really must be said. 😄

I imagine there are people who would be into chanting and incantations. Not to mention demons and dragons for some fun. I believe there are a couple stories on here which write about that.

46015! Behold what was once can be again.
