  1. One of the tricks to passwords is that they have to be between 8-12 letters and/or numbers. Any longer or shorter, and the password fails. If you use anything other than letters or numbers, the password fails—no punctuation or spaces or special characters are permitted. The password is also case-sensitive, so if you used a capital letter anywhere in creating the password, you must always use a capital letter. As far as the password reset, it could be as simple as clearing cookies for AFF. An old or corrupted cookie string can wreak all sorts of mischief. You might also want to make sure our email address is trusted by your email client, so we don’t wind up in the Spam or Junk folder.
  2. Hi! First, I’ve moved this to a more appropriate thread, since Site Announcements is pretty much for our admins to make announcements about things like code updates and such. AFF is still very much an active archive. We have new members joining daily, new stories being posted, and we don’t plan on going away anytime soon. So, if you are interested in joining AFF, the place to start is by making an archive profile, which is a prerequisite for a forum membership. Both memberships are free to make, and free to use. We have some wonderful FAQs on how to create an archive profile, and what’s needed to join the forum. And of course, we’re happy to answer questions, either here in the General Staff Questions thread, or via email. You can reach us via email at tos_team@adult-fanfiction.org and we’ll get back to you promptly.
  3. A big Happy Birthday shout-out to the one and only @DemonGoddess, my fellow cranky old broad. Here’s hoping for a good year! :hug:  :wub:  :bday:  :party:  :wish:

      Happy birthday DG! I hope this year proves far more relaxing than the last.

      Happy birthday, DG :hug::balloon::bday: Hope you had a good day, and that the coming year will be better. 

  4. This is an animated movie, and would more properly be placed in the Cartoons subdomain. It has been added here: http://cartoon.adult-fanfiction.org/index.php?cat=2076
  5. There have been some spambots posting in the forums. I delete spam reviews as I encounter them while sweeping the archive.
  6. Unless they have an email address publicly posted on their archive profile, there’s no way for you to contact them directly. We recommend using the forum to create a review reply thread, which is a much easier venue for authors to discuss reviews, and any story requests, with readers. Readers don’t need a forum account to read or post to those threads, although the author must have a forum account to create the thread.
  7. We don’t have a story alert feature per se. What I have done is to add stories to my “Currently Reading” list, which lets me look quickly to see if there’s been an update. Another method, if the author posts in our “Promote A Story” thread, is to follow that thread. You’ll get a notification when they post about a new update.
  8. I’ve tagged my administrator for this one, since I have a feeling it requires access to the database which I don’t have. We’ll get this solved!
  9. I’d really like everyone to think a little before posting a request like this. You’re asking for the name of the doujinshi that caused PornEater to pull his stories. That’s utterly baffling to me, both as a moderator and as a writer. Why would you support the work of a plagiarist—a thief, to put it plainly? So, here’s the moderator portion of this post: ANY POST WITH THE NAME OF, OR A LINK TO THAT DOUJINSHI WILL BE DELETED.
  10. M Denis Villeneuve had best be working on Dune Part Two, or I shall hunt him down, remove his liver with my bare hands, and offer it to the Morrigan.

    And yes, Part One was an enormous improvement over David Lynch’s effort, although I might had chosen differently for the role of Lady Jessica. But by and large, c’est incroyable!

      So you’re giving it your mark of approval?

      So you’re giving it your mark of approval?

      I am, actually! I read the books initially a very long time ago, and they stayed with me. I’ve reread them periodically, and I was SO excited when David Lynch was making the movie back in the early 80s. My brother and I were at the theater to see it the first week, I think, wide-eyed and breathless, but while the special effects were (for the time) amazing, and the film was gorgeous to look at, there was no passion. None. The best part of the movie was Jurgen Prochnow as Duke Leto Atreides, and perhaps Sir Patrick Stewart as Gurney Halleck. But the entirety of the first book is too vast to be covered in one movie, even if you were to show it as a three hour film. Denis Villeneuve left us on a cliffhanger, but he chose a perfect breaking point and I have high hopes that Part Two will be as wonderfully done.

  11. I do believe that you need to open the extension, or enable it, from Chrome’s Settings menu. Go to extensions, click on the encoding changer, and make sure it is set to “On.” It should then be possible to scroll down and look under “Extension Options.” Set the default encoding to Windows (CP-1252). That should do away with all the black diamond characters.
  12. My first question would be about the password reset. I’m assuming you did receive the email for the password reset, which means you should also be able to receive the validation email. That’s likely not the issue. Password requirements have changed, and a password not meeting the requirements will cause failure to log in. Passwords must be between 8-12 letters and/or numbers long, with no punctuation, spaces, or special characters allowed. They are also case-sensitive. If the password doesn’t fit those requirements, it might be the issue.
  13. The category has been added.
  14. This is actually a thread for locating existing stories, and not a request or challenge thread.
  15. Protonmail claims to be safer than Gmail, and so far I haven’t had anyone complain to me that they can’t complete registration using Protonmail. Microsoft email clients tend to have issues with our site due to Microsoft’s security protocols. Outlook.com, Hotmail.com, and Live.com accounts are all experiencing issues with password resets and validation email. (I think it’s the “adult” in our name—scares them, it does...) We don’t allow disposable email clients, so those are out. Having said all that, I actually get far less spam on the gmail account I use for this site than I do on other gmail accounts I have. I keep a unique account for this site, and with strong passwords, premium antimalware, and a proactive approach to teaching my spam filters what to screen out, I haven’t had an issue.
  16. Dragon Ball is in a separate subdomain: http://anime2.adult-fanfiction.org/index.php As far as the other categories requested, if you will only have one story for each of these categories, I would quite honestly prefer to have them placed in the Misc Anime category, with the appropriate fandom noted in the disclaimer. If you have multiple stories for each anime, then I’d be happy to create categories.
  17. The account has been deleted per your request.
  18. I’ll take your word for it and make the new category.
  19. It looks like we have two new postings to the existing category. If the storyline is different, then I think a new category is justified, but otherwise, it might be less confusing to have just the one category. Would that work for you?
  20. We have a category for Roswell in Television. Is this is same franchise?
  21. Eureka! I have a car again! Picked it up tonight, and I am utterly delighted with my gently used Jeep. :wub:

      Yay ! Brava ! Congrats on the Jeep find !

      Congratulations, love! :D so happy for you. Our wee one still insists that you need to do a funeral for the old Jeep, though. I’m trying to tell him that a Buddhist cremation might not be the best idea… :tomato:

      Put this old jeep on a wooden raft, set it ablaze as it drifts out across the water!  (Evening is likely the best time to do this.)  Maybe even some celebratory fireworks?

  22. Sadly, the only way to deflect them is to turn off anonymous reviews, which is an account-wide function and not just by the story. But @Desiderius Price is absolutely right about not following the links. Delete the reviews, and click NOTHING. As I sweep the archive, I delete things like that on sight.
  23. Setzuka has a profile here: http://members.adult-fanfiction.org/profile.php?no=1296771669 However, that particular story does not appear under the account at this time. I’m not seeing any staff action with respect the the Babylon 5 story, so it is possible the author chose to delete the work.
  24. I believe what happened is that during one of the code modifications, the word “Beast” was moved from the summaries to the tags field in the older stories. Thank you for pointing this out. I’ll make the necessary corrections manually.
  25. If you are offering this story up for adoption, please provide the link to the story and the rest of the information required as listed here: http://www2.adult-fanfiction.org/forum/topic/21142-how-to-use-this-forum/ If this is a search for an existing story, you’re in the wrong place.
