American Red Cross There are so many ways we can help these people, whether it's time, blood, or a small donation.

jj, you got it exactly right. Subdomain names are what they are. However, what tells you what "lives" there, is actually the menu. For example, when the changes I've asked opinions on for comics and xmen sub domains are implemented, the subdomain names will remain the same, whereas, the MENU option itself will change to reflect it.

The menu in the archive clearly says "anime", and then "Gundam, Beyblade, DBZ, FMA". The subdomain is named anime2, where Gundam, Beyblade, DBZ, and FMA exist. Look at your browser bar, and you'll SEE the subdomain names.

While moving stories around in the buffy subdomain (and I sorted crossovers as well), came across a BtVS/InuYasha one. Sorry, animated characters with real people just doesn't work.

For now, until we get there to sort that mess, I could probably just change the fantasy top level to Fantasy/Science Fiction, and then subdivide it further once we get there for sorting and cataloging. Reason being that one of the reqs I set for something to exist at the top level, was that it must have at least 200 stories attached to it. Since we've not sorted it yet and seen whether or not the misc stuff has a bunch of sci-fi and other categories to get a count, I think you can see why I'd rather wait and do this as an alternative for now.

Well yes, but as I said, this is very rough what I'm throwing at you. Once I GET there, is when I start looking at exactly how it can be put together without it making a worse mess than already exists. But, this is exactly what I asked for, because I do need to figure this out, LOL. So, the more input, the better, as then I'll start plotting it out in a way which'll work with the 3 levels of categories and the database itself. Of course, once I come up with something much more than a very rough draft, I'll put it up so we can all discuss it further, and refine it. THEN I can implement. Make sense?

Well sure. And here's another thing. You have the various cartoon incarnations of DC and Marvel titles as well, which is why I was looking at this big of a change too. Say for example I did this... We'll work with xmen.. It would become "Marvel Verse" and from there, you'd have the titles, and etc, that are all Marvel Verse. Then going to comics... It becomes "DC Verse" and other stuff DC Verse being the top level, Cartoons alphanumeric listings the others. I'll work with the two most popular titles, and give you an idea of what I'm looking at. In a DC Verse top level in comics, you would have DC Verse>Batman>Movies DC Verse>Batman>Cartoons DC Verse>Batman>Comics Or, I could go...(all for top level) DC Verse Movies DC Verse Cartoons DC Verse Comics which would then be followed at the second level by Batman, Superman, Wonderwoman, and etc or something very much like that. Third level would be pair types, of course, as is what I set as the standard format throughout the archive. The same would be in the xmen subdomain which would become "Marvel Verse" for ALL Marvel titles. But then again, I also have to look at my having only 3 category levels to work with as well. So it definitely needs more work, but I think you see what I'm after. I dunno, as I said, I'm still working this out. Now, since we're sorting in cartoons, I can probably get a feel for what I need to move around and such starting there. In any case, it gets complicated, because as you see it involves three separate subdomains.

Jeez I need to check my math...had the wrong total with the first post, wrong count in some places too . Here we go with an update 899 total looked at to date Breakdown as follows Unable to find conclusive proof one way or another - 265 Returned (1 or more times) - 28 Confirmed as 18 or over - 209 Old minors (from before the current mod team) - 193 Minors deleted, now 18 and can return - 61 Over 18 users posting for minors -7 Confirmed and processed first time minor - 123 Pending minor - 1 Minor accounts taken over (4+ returns) -12

LOL, it's not a problem, glad I could help.

as it's in the same sub domain, there's no need for a merge. You simply edit the story, and change the placement. I've linked you to the FAQ which explains how to do it. So what you need to do here, is move the story within the sub domain to the correct spot, and delete the newer upload.

I've been kicking this around for months. What I've been seeing, and what I think needs addressed is the following: In movies, you have Marvelverse and DCverse type stories. I'm thinking that once I get to comics, I should make it DC Verse, and other comics. Xmen should become Marvel Verse. What I see with that, is that it helps for continuity. For example, you have Spiderman comics, and then movies, same for XMen. Batman, which is DC verse, also has comics, movies and some graphic novels. As I'm working in a specific sequence, this makes it so that as I get there, I have a better idea of what, exactly, my crew and I are up against.

Okay, it's all migrated. Have a topic in comics, that I'd like for you and any other writer you can get to, to look at, and give me an honest opinion please.

Not a problem, bed time for me, my eyes are bleeding from hunting minors, lol...

Sure, you can delete the new one if you want, saves me an extra step! I'll get this moved a bit later, still processing plagiarists that have been reported.

Archive profile I've only screened 3 examples, but that's plenty enough. WORD for WORD type story theft. First story...original by The Simi plagiarised copy by boolinder Another authored by The Simi plagiarised copy by boolinder And finally, the original story was by Disgruntled Minion and the plagiarised copy by boolinder

Because it's between two subdomains, I have two options here. I can either move the old story in its entirety to the correct subdomain, or I can move the associated reviews and data from the old story to the new. With the age of the story, the first option is likely the best one.

That's user generated, most likely. Often, the user exports from a word doc, to html, and the data gets garbled.

Archive profile This one is bold, even shows the stories as not hers in the story summary All but TWO of this author's "stories" were someone else's work. List of authors she stole from Pillows (Original is Pillows by kawaii-kirei) You stole it, give it back!!! (Original is Stealing Hearts by kawaii-kirei ) Marriage (Original is Marriage by kawaii-kirei) Craving the warmth (Original is Craving the Warmth by Kurenai Tenshi) Strawberrie Deoderant (Original is Your Love is Like Strawberries by naturalli) Only If You Want Me To (Original is Only If You Want Me To by kawaii-kirei) The authors she stole from, are all on fanfiction.net In any case, this person needs to ...disappear...from here... Which of course, I've done with all the stolen stuff. Other than leaving her profile up with what she did.

Not a problem, I do try to answer these questions as quick as I can, but some days I have other things which require my undivided attention. I apologize if I was not quick enough in response.

Where possible, I have mirrored the structure for the top level Angel category in tv, to match it to the top level Angel category in buffy. I've also moved almost all the stuff OUT of the buffy subdomain that did not belong there. Still working on one more, but it's 42 chapters, and that TAKES awhile.

Flaming is flaming. It's where someone states something in an effort to cause an argument (flame war), and/or to hurt the person they're posting to. In other words, malicious posting. So, yes, flaming as you know it for the forum, would also apply to review boards. Having said that, one does have to take a long hard look, to be sure it's not, in fact, a harsh criticism rather than a flame. While those can also be offensive, they're not necessarily flames, although to my way of thinking PERSONALLY, I consider them flamish. But, that's one of those things which are irrelevant when it comes to looking at something. Personal feelings/thoughts aside, I have to look at ALL sides of it.

The support link goes to direct to email. I changed that yesterday, and tested it out. I sent your user information on to Jaxxy yesterday, as well as linking her to this topic. I've also sent the additional email you showed in your last post to her, just a minute or so ago.

Out of the first run, I gotta say, II and VI are my faves.
