Thank you! Yes, the email just never did arrive to my hotmail. Now however I’m afraid having another issue and it’s once again the regenerating age verification thing. It’s back and I can’t get past it. Already followed all the steps, cache clearing, close screen, force refresh. Following the https://www.adult-fanfiction.org./ link just puts me in the loop again. Using a laptop and the browser is firefox.

Thank you for the answer. I used a different browser and now things seem to work, but there’s just one issue: when I try to sign on as an author, it tells me it’s sending a confirmation email to my email that I need to confirm before it’ll allow me to log-in, but I’ve waited a couple of hours and the email hasn’t arrived.

Hi, I just have a little something to add here, it’s that I recently tried to sign in, but before I could see anything, the steps I had to take or any of that (I heard something in the forums about cache resetting?), I clicked the green I Am Of Age button over and over, and it’d flash, disappear for a moment, then reappear again and the whole back of the page would be dark again. I got rid of it with the Zapper element but it still meant the links on the upgrade complete tutorial were unclickable. It’s only because I had a thought of trying to visit the forums that I was able to come here and get further information. Now I need to figure out what the cache reset steps are, I still don’t know how to access that link or if someone has posted it here. I can access the forums but not the website proper. Edit: Oh, and just going directly to the front page https://www2.adult-fanfiction.org/ just gives me a totally blank page. .

Thanks so much for the prompt attention! I’m glad anonymous reviews are still allowed. Thanks again. I just checked while not signed in and anonymous reviews still aren’t allowed on any of my stories.

I'm not really certain where this should go, but hopefully this subforum is okay! The thing is, I’m having an issue where I’ve tagged on my story options that I’d like to allow anonymous reviews. Some of them are a few years old and indeed have anon reviews, but relatively recently I received a very sweet review from a user. The issue was that he commented about how he’d registered an account just so he could leave it. After checking it out, it seems like my stories now require an account to leave a review. I checked the story options and anonymous reviews are still enabled. I’m not certain if this is a bug or simply a sitewide admin decision and the option to enable anonymous reviews just hasn’t been removed yet, but in the case it’s the second, well...I realize it’s very presumptuous of me, but I would really really like to implore the staff to allow anonymous reviews again! I feel like interaction between author and reader is already necessarily lesser on AFF and places like it compared to other more mainstream sites, and I just don’t think it’s wise to add another hurdle someone has to jump through on top of that simply so they can leave their thoughts on a story. A lot of reviews are left on a whim or a passing spasm of energy and forcing someone to register an account before they can do so really reduces the amount of readers that can be bothered. Now obviously I’m still extremely grateful that a site like AFF exists and I do prefer it over all others, heck, I’ve been visiting since the original ff.net purge from 2001. But this decision in particular just doesn’t seem like a good idea to me. I hope you guys receive my plea with the humility with which it is intended. I just want things to be the best they can.
