We're in the process of upgrading the archive code. We tend to roll any upgrades out slowly and carefully, so we don't disrupt the normal functioning of the archive. One of the things being worked on is the ability to search by tag. Not being the coder, I can't tell you if the function will be able to search shorter tags. I can tell you that it's in the works, however.

Thank you!

Just pointing out, because I'm heartily tired of the misconceptions about D/s, that Naruto as described above would be many things, but he would not be a dominant. The reason there are no stories with heartless doms might be because a dom can't afford to be a complete bastard. The submissive always, always, ALWAYS has the right to end a scene or walk away. They are not slaves, nor are they powerless in the relationship. In fact, the submissive shapes the relationship, not the dominant. I don't mind fiction, but portraying a lifestyle this incorrectly is just wrong, folks.

There is actually no "add story" link under Member Tools. You would need to go to the Author Panel option under Member Tools once you are properly logged in. That will take you to the page with a list of subdomains down the left side, and you will see the link to add a story under each subdomain. Just select the link in the correct subdomain, and follow the directions on the new page. If you need to see this laid out, we have a FAQ: http://www2.adult-fanfiction.org/forum/index.php/topic/3552-how-to-add-a-story-using-rte/

32499 S'okay. I'm not terribly superstitious about numbers

32497 Always happy to be the sacrifice to karma!

I'm not coming up with anything in the records by that title. Do you have an author name?

We absolutely understand the need to edit older stories, especially to fix formatting issues, and we're fine with that. The practice we don't allow is when people go in and regularly "edit" the same story every other day to keep it at the top of the listings. Obviously, editing an older story might take more than one pass, and we would not automatically assume you were intending to just alter the story's rankings. And of course, now that you've let us know what you're planning to do, we'll be aware not to worry.

I think he did just that, which is the only reason they're even running FO out his way. They tend to not bother for one subscriber, but if a whole block or subdivision yells, they listen. And knowing magus, he had the troops mustered.

There are hoards of absolutely silly pronouns meant to replace the usual gender-specific run. Personally, I think it's taking the notion of politically correct to an unspeakable extreme, and it's verging on offensive, since I quite happily refer to myself with female pronouns and don't want to be called "sie" (instead of he/she) or "hir" (instead of him/her) as I saw in one otherwise excellent article. Of course, even "sie" is in disfavor, and "zie" is preferred. Here's a good blog on the topic: https://genderneutralpronoun.wordpress.com/ CJ Cherryh has a race, the stsho, who are hermaphrodites and have three sexes. There are varying pronouns for the male sort of role, the female sort of role, the third gender who is most often the publicly seen gender, and those who are past sexual (neutral) and those who are between stages, since stsho can switch genders under stress or to complete a mating triad. (http://www.shinyfiction.com/cherryh-fan/chanur/stsho/stsho-gloss.html ) She covers the differences in conversation, or casually in a character's reflections, and it feels natural that way.
