InBrightestDay's (Originals) Review Reply & Discussion Thread
BronxWench replied to InBrightestDay's topic in General
Having had the extreme pleasure of reading the first chapter of The Woman in the Statue, I’m really, REALLY looking forward to more stories from you! -
Not here on AFF, no.

account access problem and deletion request
BronxWench replied to RRS1's topic in Archive Tech Support
The email above links to this profile: http://members.adult-fanfiction.org/profile.php?no=1296993900 The profile for RoyalRed shows a Yahoo email address, which would explain why you can’t log in. There are no posted stories under that profile at this time. I can delete that account for you, if that’s what you wish. -
Thank you! I don’t write a lot of fluffy fiction, but this was actually kind of fun to do. I’m not sure I can be that fluffy again, mind you, but it was fun! I do love wolf society, so yes, I was definitely leaning on the alpha wolf behavior for Ben. But I’m glad you enjoyed my bit of holiday cheer. Sorry about the White Castle thing, though!

We do ask that there be at least 5 stories already written before we create a category for that pairing.

@Red Ghost I’ve emailed you. I’m really not sure if the issue is linked to hotmail accounts and/or Outlook, but I do know we have, historically, had huge issues with Microsoft browsers. Edge seems to be working well enough, but Internet Explorer was dreadful and kicked in so many issues. It doesn’t seem very far-fetched to think the Microsoft email products would have conflicts with our site, too.

Hey, sometimes I have to take off that moderator hat and just play, too! If I read something for my own enjoyment, I make a point of trying to leave a review, because I like reviews, and I figure if I leave some, the good karma might outweigh the moderator karma. And I meant your debut in our anthology collections, but you knew that.

What would be the subdomain for this category?

So, who here got sidelined in the government shutdown?

Honestly, it’s just that sort of pure blind luck I seem to have. I’d worked for the government before, they were recruiting, they made puppy eyes, and I said okay. I went through all the paperwork, and vetting, and clearances (I’m shockingly clearance-worthy). I was sworn in on October 29, and I’m now having a lovely little unpaid vacation.
In truth, I work because I’m bored otherwise. I’m not dependent on that paycheck, so I’m fine. BUT there are far too many other people who do depend on that paycheck, and this was simply wrong. I feel worse for the people who have to work without pay. My hat is off to Senator Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada, however. Once again, as she did in the last shutdown, she is donating her salary during the shutdown to a Nevada charity. I admire the gesture.
I’m not going to dip my toes into the actual politics. I’m fairly moderate, and view both the far left and far right with the same sort of wary distaste generally reserved for things best not discussed in the drawing room. I will say that if one does not have a grasp of economics, or even the patience to read a one-page precis, one should not attempt to govern. Governing from the gut tends to fail miserably, which one knows if one reads their history.

I swear, that thing is shut down more than it’s up, and even when it is running, it never feels like it’s running ‘well’.

As you requested, the account has been deleted.

I do both, so blessings of the Solstice, and yay, the days are finally getting longer again!
-
Ah, the joys of old posts, and disappearing posters. Trust me, I’m sure I’d know it if you were seriously bitching me out, and I’d probably deserve it because, well, I can be a bitch!
-
Thank you! I’m not quite sure it deserved to be called literary, but it was surprisingly fun to write something with no ulterior motives, no hidden agenda or sneaky trap for the unwary reader. Or maybe that was the trap? Who knows? It was just fluffy! But yay for good sex, because that’s clearly the best part of writing fluff. One has to have really good sex to make up for the lack of blood, or betrayal. And from SinfulWolf: Thank you! I’m not sure I can do a whole lot of sweet stories like this one, but it’s always good to challenge myself. I was very proud of not leaving any actual bodies, not even those who might possibly have deserved it. And I am very glad the exposition wasn’t too boring. It’s freaking hard to set a stage without a body!
-
I’m still having issues, but so be it…
-
I’m glad to hear from you, and to hear you’re alright! I know the new stories will be very well received. I’m looking forward to reading them myself!
-
How does that work? That might be a temporary work-around until we find out what’s happened.
-
It’s entirely possible that the author got more negative comments, and decided to remove the story. Unfortunately, the links in my records don’t work, either, so I can’t see an author name. I was hoping I might be able to find more information that way—sometimes authors leave notes on their profiles about why they removed a story. But there’s literally nothing in the forum except this request and the notation about the flame review on the story. No review reply threads come up, no recommendations, nothing.
-
I’m not seeing any staff action with respect to this story, other than an incident back in 2011 where a reader left a flame review on the story, which was deleted by staff. The story itself had not been warned that I can see, however. Do you remember the author?
-
Let me see what I can find out for you. I’m actually having the same issue, and it’s frustrating. (But we need more Cullen around here, so I’m motivated.)
-
Oh, love, that’s fine! I left a review the other day in my “work” name and had to delete it and repost it as me.

Are you registering for the forum or the archive? The archive format is yyyy-mm-dd, so a birthday of August 7, 1980 would be entered as 1980-08-07. I believe the forum uses a drop-down menu format.

For The Scapegoat: Many thanks! This is a wonderful compliment, and I’m so pleased you liked my little story.

I suppose most of my urban settings are an amalgam of the big cities I like best in the world—New York City and London. For some reason, they make me ridiculously happy, although I really, really liked Toronto when I was there a million years ago. Anyway, I’ve actually not gotten one of those notes, although there was a knock on the door, once. Apparently my partner at the time and I won the headboard-banging-off-the-wall contest that month, according to his upstairs neighbor. I might not look at my top hat in the exact same way again, though… And yes, Ben is certainly not a big talker, is he? But thank you so much, and I’m glad my brief venture into WAFF territory was at least fun!
