    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?

      I’m 90% sure he is already.

      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.

    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.

    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.

    The category has been added.

    This is actually a thread for locating existing stories, and not a request or challenge thread.

    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.

    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.

    The account has been deleted per your request.
  9. BronxWench
    I’ll take your word for it and make the new category.
  10. BronxWench
    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?
  11. BronxWench
    We have a category for Roswell in Television. Is this is same franchise?

    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?

    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.

    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.
  15. BronxWench
    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.
  16. BronxWench
    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.

    Has to be a custom story, since the party stories go in Originals, I thought. I had an idea involving my noir flashfics but they’re in Books, so nuts to that for me.
  18. BronxWench
    I’ll go take a look and find them, thanks!

    So, just when I think things are settling down, and life is beginning to approach normal once more, my car decides to die. This is not simply a case of spending a week with its favorite mechanic. Oh, no. This is a case of the computer no longer talking to any of its sensors, resulting in a very large paperweight that looks quite a bit like a Jeep. 

    The daft one and I are going car shopping tomorrow. Hide the whiskey...

      Seriously, it’s looking better and better. Everything I wanted to look at was gone, except for one car, which didn’t have a roof rack and smelled like something had died in it. With under 9,000 miles, it should NOT smell that bad unless the previous owner was a sweet little old serial killer who only dismembered victims on Sunday, after church services were ended… Yeah, I’ll pass on the dead person special. :lol:

      Only a hearse should have dead-people smell!  (That’s the ticket, buy a hearse, cause I heard they’re a hoot to park outside the emergency at the local hospital.)

    The category has been made. If you link me to the other existing stories, I can move them into the new category as well.
  21. BronxWench
    I’m glad everything is working again!

    I’m showing you as registered and active, with your last login today: http://members.adult-fanfiction.org/profile.php?no=1296775843 There are 6 stories under that account, all in the Anime subdomain. You shouldn't need to reactivate the account at this point. Once you’re logged in, if you click “My Profile” under your pen name, on the right of the menu bar, you should be brought to a page that shows your bio, and any public information. On the left, there is a menu, and in the top box is an option for “Stories Written” which should show you the stories under your account. If you want to edit any story, or post a new story, then you would need to select “My Control Panel” from the dropdown menu under your pen name on the top menu bar. Where are you searching for your stories?

    Hi, We have a FAQ for that, right here: http://www2.adult-fanfiction.org/forum/topic/64151-how-to-fix-the-black-diamond-issue/
  24. BronxWench
    Okay. So, Original Fiction is subdivided by genre, but none of those apply to your stories? I’d think Original-Erotica would be the category, with either the General or Het sub-categories being a good fit. I’m trying to ascertain, I guess, if this is something that’s better defined by a tag, rather than creating a category for a particular fetish/kink.
  25. BronxWench
    Generally, if we’re going to create a category for a subdomain, we would like to know that there are stories for it. Do you have a story (or stories) you’ve written, ready to be posted to that category?
