Everyone is still quite welcome to partake in Halloween 2022!

For all our members who use yahoo.com, the initial run of emails triggered Yahoo’s security protocols. Some of the emails were delayed or just not delivered, because Yahoo decided we’re spammers.

If you never got the email, please let us know in the Software > Archive Tech Support thread, in the pinned post, READ ME.

I adore you all, but it’s after midnight here, and I need to sleep so I can be up again at 6am.  🛏️

Well, the admins of AFF are so skilled they scared the crap out of me.
The other day I got an update that I would need to verify my email or something to that effect, since the site was at long last coming out of Read Only mode.
...only problem was, I received this email at an address I didn’t think you all knew.
 

Merry Christmas!
Happy Krampusnacht!
Enjoyable Yule!
 
The holidays before the end of the year!

Happy Winter Solstice Everybody!

My day job has been a gong show of late, troubleshooting AFF's woes has remained on my mind.
Hoping to start the first phase of unlocking the site this week.  So don't be surprised if you get an email asking to re-verify your email and to change your password. 

Happy Halloween everybody! Happy Samhain and All Saints Day!
We wish you safe tidings as the unseen and seen brush together this year.
For today is the day where monsters and men intersection and one may be the other and none shall be what it seems.
So have fun y’all spirits benign and malign and ghoulies! <3
 

So, like everyone else, I would really, really like to put this nasty hacking crap behind us.  Unfortunately, it does take time to find the likely culprits, whether individuals, or what they used.  I am making progress, but please understand I’m reading these things line by line by line

Our cats have access to two cat beds, several chairs, a couch, a couple boxes, a footrest, a beanbag, countless pillows and blankets, a sunny windowsill with a blanket in it, our bed, and a cat tree. The cats are permitted to have a cuddle, nap, or lazy moment in all of these places. If we don’t catch them first, there’s even a couple baskets of clean laundry that might be comfy.
…and Woozle wants to sleep on top of a flat of toilet paper jammed into a storage shelf.

Cats, man. You just can’t make sense of them.

Sitting in read only again for a bit, Ass hat hacker attacked again. I need to get a couple of hours sleep before I look at the code. Had to roll back 24 hours  

Story Manager is now Live!!!!

Well, I achieved success… my halloween story now has a name!!!!

Update 2! Reviews are under the new code and functioning.

“Okay Google, in 30 minutes, remind me to put lube on my bike chain."
30 minutes later, I get “Put boob on my bike chain.”
Sounds uncomfortable.

Watching the Expanse.  Imagine having the actor credit of “puking diplomat” on your resume?

Ever have a story idea so stupid that you had to write it, just to see if you could pull it off?
I have had such an idea. It’s a furry story about four boys from a racoon-like race whose island home is under occupation by tiger-like invaders. The boys manage to find an ancient artifact that they hope will give them superpowers to drive the invaders away.
Instead, the artifact turns them into a boy band. 
God help me, the story going to be called “Band Together.”

I’m not sure what CAUSED the outage, but it’s now fixed.  It looks like our ISP had to reboot the server after I opened a ticket
