Actually, anyone we find "perjuring themselves" to be on this site will find themselves removed, and if they return, they will be banned for life. Feel free to look at the moderation report to see how seriously we do take that. In fact, here's a link. While some people may find it amusing, and think it's funny to subvert that age requirement, there are real life consequences. Those of us associated with the site can be fined, or serve jail time, which would require us to be registered as sex offenders. I don't find that particularly funny. I have a lively sense of humor, but I look lousy in jailhouse orange.

We're not turning in to a funnel in to an ad site. No, I don't have to feel bad about that. They're not supposed to be here anyway, and the page is part of the deterrent. As to when it'll change, that's up to the coder. Sure, I could tinker with it, but, I also would have to make sure that any changes I make to it are compatible to the old code it's linked to. I've got plenty enough to do as it is, without having to make adjustments to a cookie setter. @Anesor - I'll have to check that, as the query I ran to update the post data SHOULD have made the changes in those posts too.

A: Nobody should have to be in jailhouse orange that adminsd for AFForg simply because some dimwits have become gung-ho about thier flagrant disregard for the rules thanks to FFnet's oh so infamously lazy moderators. You, DG, and all the rest of the Admin crew work way too hard to provide us with a nice place to share our love of writing. I for one am grateful to you guys for giving me a safe haven for my controversial stories. Far as I'm conscerned, I'm all for the age verifycation blue page remaining annoying. Children are often imatient, so it is a great deterent I am pleased to deal with as necessary. If it helps to keeps bratty children from causing me added grief, and protects everyone from unreasonable sex offender charges, it is the best thing about AFF.org in my books.

Something to keep in mind regarding story codes (also known as 'tags'). When you're uploading your story, you're required to include the appropriate codes (such as m/f, m/m, oral, etc), which get added to the end of the summary field. The potential problem is that the summary field accepts a maximum of 240 characters, so if you have a long summary for your story, you might run out of room to include all of your story codes. The answer is to simply manually type them into the header part of your story, after the title information and before the story begins. AFF has a limit of 600 words for author's notes per chapter, but story codes aren't included in that count, so add all that are appropriate.

Many writers include author's notes - myself included - which are good ways to impart information that you feel is important for the reader to know, either before they've read the story or chapter, or after it. But some people take it to extremes, so we do have rules on them. Stories are restricted to 600 word author notes per chapter, which should be more than enough. What is not included in that word count, though, is disclaimers or additional story tags. Author note chapters are expressly forbidden. Just to explain further, some people will upload a chapter which is made up entirely of author's notes and contains no story at all. People often do this so they can reply to reviews that people have left. This is also not allowed. If you wish to reply to reviews then you can set up a review reply topic in this forum. You can find more information on how to do that here.
