This post should answer your question. There isn't a character limit.

you're very welcome! Was manta2g who fixed it.

story link It's a darkfic, so you all know that for starters. Great plotline!

story link I normally don't read stuff like this, but I must say, I certainly liked your story. It was a VERY different way of portraying the temptation sequence. What sparked this idea?

Yep! You helped me solve something that just looked OFF with the colors. Got a few more ideas kicking around in my head for more skins..... and..was wondering if you guys would like fandom based skins possibly as well?

MUX are the same as MUSH or MUD. This link oughta help explain it a bit better for ya.

to Calanthee, hisbabybird, moranos, AmyMcClair, Tennak, Zimraphel! Hope you all have a great day today!

*sighs* dunno if we're planning on doing that, but it'd be a long time before it would happen, if so. We have loads more work that MUST be done before adding something like that as a feature. Aside from that, there is the question of protecting the member db at large from spam harvesters, among other things. Which is why email addresses themselves are hidden currently. Plus, we have no way in that piece of software to allow for secure mail, like you can do here in forum. By that I mean that if a user wants send another mail, the forum automatically masks your sending mail information and shows it as coming from the forum. So, as you can see, there is much to just mail funtions in programs like this in general that has to be looked at.

Let's see.... There's this entire section. Devoted to nothing BUT contests. Then of course in the fan fiction forums there are individual challenge forums for the different archive components. Anime forum category with linkage to the subforums within......you'll notice a subforum specifically for challenges/requests. Non Anime forum category again, see the contained subforums....each particular forum category (i.e. hp, lotr, etc) ALL have a forum for posting challenges and requests. And so on throughout most of the rest of the fan fiction subforums. I'm not quite finished with that setup yet, as it is being done concurrent to the long term project I've got going, so there is some more tweaking/adding you'll be seeing in the near future. If you've got specific contest ideas you'd like to see us implement, pm manta2g with your request/suggestion as she is the listed moderator for the contest sections both here and in the archive.

banned fer being my next victim!

The archive does not support email updates of stories at this point in time. The software itself doesn't have the capacity to do that.

Unfortunately, some of it you won't see for quite awhile. There are other things that have to be done to facilitate much of what many of you would like to see. Like stories in their right categories, easier tagging for stories, that sort of thing. Lotta background work that has to be done before we get to doing many things. That being the case, you won't necessarily SEE it, 'til it's actually done.

Are there stories for it? That's part of how the restructure is being done you know. Categories with pre-existing stories, and it would really need to be more than say one or two stories ya know.

make it a gif or jpg and then try again. A jpg is usually smaller than a png, file size wise.

That section is a mess ain't it? That (which is very much a WIP) is what is likely to happen structurally once we're able to go more than 3 levels of categories, which we currently cannot. Of course, that's also a long term project, in terms of the initial scripting revisions and then the actual work involved moving the stories around so that they still remain linked with their reviews. In the meantime, so we have a record of 'em, there's already a forum for misplaced stories. Just post linkage so we know right where to look to get started, in moving fics from categories they don't belong in.

that sounds something like shepherd's pie. Which is very similar...

In your profile view, it no longer displays your birthday. It only displays your age.

My thoughts in doing this modification are not to browbeat anyone into donating. Far from it. It's more a convenience thing. Meaning, I could easily set it up once the modification itself is done for one time type with different specified amounts, or a recurring thing, or whatever. Kinda depends on what the users would need it to do as far as how I'd go about setting that all up. I 'spose if I do this, I'll have to put somewhere that this IS optional, and certainly not a requirement.

*snickers* Something that comes up from time to time with my husband is something he calls "left nut logic". In other words, I can't know, or understand, because i don't have said equipment. Requires left nut logic to GET it. 'spose you gotta be there, but it's usually pretty funny when he goes off on one those tangents.

hehe good for you! Maybe I should create some medals for achievements like this. Could display the images using the awards modification.

You got the right idea! You could put a link in the beginning of your chapter as well to let your reviewers know where to find you to discuss it. Of course, it would have to be a link they could copy/paste, because it won't work otherwise.

If you all don't mind, I'd love to see pro and con answers to this. It'll help.

Actually, as I said to begin with, that one sentence (at the end of your original post) is what made me look twice at what you were attempting to do with this topic. I've been administering/moderating various forums for well over 8 years, so sentences like that are an automatic red flag, which means I will watch. Period. That sort of sentence is CLASSIC flame baiting. As to playing favorites? Sorry, not in my nature to do so. Of course, you can believe what you like with that. Think about it though. IF I was playing favorites, this topic would've been locked already, the participant who I was "targeting" to support my "favorite" would be moderated and unable to post were I supposedly took offense on behalf of another user who I was being percieved as playing favorites with. It hasn't been though, has it? Nor have any users posting abilities been restricted. You would have felt up close and personal why it is I have a reputation as a HAMMER in other forums, now wouldn't ya (if I was playing favorites)? Anyway, moving on... The topic has great potential to bring up concerns which can be addressed and looked into. There's already something that came up as a result of this which could, in fact, make it easier on users in the future for general searching and a quick overview before even clicking a story link. I won't say more about it, until I'm told whether or not it's doable in future archive versions. I expect that it will be. Techically, it's just another form field after all.
