You turned 18 in July of 1991. You created the profile in March of 1991. Further, in the forum profile, you lied about your age.

We don't customarily notify minors when we've deleted them, even once they've turned 18 and we find out after the fact. That's why you were deleted.

Hi there YuJe, The profiles are merged, you can proceed with activation

Read With all the uninsured in this country, and someone in prison can get a sex change operation?? What the hell?

We don't have a subscription option, but what we do have is a current reading list you can populate with the stories you're reading. When you click that link in your profile, you'll be able to see when the story is updated. Details on the feature here

Read, Review, Enjoy is perfectly acceptable and not a demand ya know.

added. Once we have infinite cats, remind me to add the book specific ones?

And we are once again straying from what has everyone so bent out of shape. There are people who like to think that I am obligated to leave content up, regardless. I'm not. When it comes to MINORS, I am OBLIGATED to delete them AND their content. Whether or not the young user is talented is irrelevant. What matters is how old that young user was when he or she created the account and started adding to an 18 years old and older archive. THAT is the issue. Yes, I will continue to delete them. This topic is closed

thank you! It's fixed now

Prompt: Sweltering Please remember to follow the rules as outlined here: Rules Happy Writing!

Once again, guest who won't identify yourself, do you honestly expect the real people behind the site to have to face LEGAL REPERCUSSIONS because we don't actively pursue and delete underage accounts which DO NOT belong on and 18 and over site?

The problem was this user's age at the time of account creation. He couldn't wait until he was 18 to create an account and post. Yes, he is no longer under age, but I gotta say, you have to be blind not to see the age policy which is plastered all over the site. Users who login underage know full well we look for them, and no matter how long it may take, when they're found, they're deleted. It's unfortunate when they're talented young writers as well, but you know, WAITING until you're old enough to use an 18 or older site means you don't get deleted when caught.

You're going to find where someone has been victimized in this manner before, that they will most likely be AGAINST any such an option. I'm not a writer, so I've not suffered plagiarism of my written stuff; but I have been victimized on the art end. Not pleasant, and yes, still testy about it. Like most artists, I'll share my stuff, if asked. Was I asked? Nope. I'm glad we don't offer that as an option, personally. If it helps even in a small way to prevent someone's work being lifted, it's worth it to NOT allow downloads.

I expect politicians to lie, and lie often. What scares me is that so many will BELIEVE it, facts not withstanding.

Not familiar with it, but the category here is small, only 14 stories.

Erasmuss was deleted from here for being underage

As DrkDreamer is a published author, that wouldn't be a surprise.

Right end of the title bar is s toggle for collapse/not collapse any given section. Depending on the skin is what'll be there. It should be a +/-, as that's default with almost every skin I've ever seen. What skin are you using?

That's be awesome! Of course, most of of 'em are that write for the movies have NO idea how much is involved with the books....

Read and discuss

Yep, AFF started life as a buffy archive

I can get in to more detail here as to why the outright deletions for minors. It is ILLEGAL for them to be on site. It is illegal for their CONTENT to be on site. So, I am obligated to remove ALL of it where a minor is concerned, and the content is posted underage. There are remnants of where the story was left and modified, and author deleted from the archive yonks ago, but as we find those, I delete those too. With plagiarists, I take over the profile most of the time. I don't leave the stories, as they take up space unnecessarily. With the database at 8.3GB and growing daily, I don't leave the stories in these affected profiles.
