As the user has been added to the Hall of Shame for repeated Terms of Service violations, well above and beyond, what is normally allowed; any links and information about this user will be deleted. Should the same users persist in posting that information, they will ALSO be banned.

The summary is limited to no more than 240 characters, including spaces. If you've already used all that up, it won't allow you to add anything more. As the summary displays on a single line for editing, you need to use the arrow key to scroll to where you want to edit.

There may not be ANY fiction added to the archive where the person is under the age of 18, when writing about real people. Any such stories will be deleted as they're found.

she states on her FFN that she's "retired". She's also deleted her LJ

Have any of you checked with her in her yahoo group?

We understand that, and no, nothing you've ever posted has been untoward or in any way an issue. Nothing in the topic in and of itself was in any way flame baiting, bad mouthing, or any such a thing. Having said that, considering we Hall of Shamed this person for repeated violations, this is why the topic was removed. Any references to her presence elsewhere will be removed for that same reason. Users are not added to the Hall of Shame for no reason, and definitely not frequently. In April it will have existed for 5 years, and there are only 64 entries. The bulk of them are plagiarists. However, the user was WARNED that this would happen should she persist in ignoring the Terms of Service and Content Guidelines. Having been warned in such a fashion, I was put in a position of having to back up what was said, by the user's own actions.

Sure thing! Next thing I would need from you is the email (or whatever communication you used) forwarded to tos_team@adult-fanfiction.org, and a link to the story to be adopted. Once we have the proof on file, I then transfer the story from the account of the person giving it up, to the user who adopts it.

LOL. I'm in the process of moving the manga based stories from anime to manga anyway. The subdomain was created a few years ago, as we had writers who'd been asking for it for years.

Subcategory already exists. Yes, we DO differentiate between the two, which is why there is a manga subdomain

FictionPress, just like Fanfiction.net (its parent company) does NOT allow MA/NC 17 content.

By the way, before I took this final step, which the user had been warned would happen, I let slide another 2 instances, rather than the action I'm taking now. I considered the user's age (she's quite young), and HOPED that she'd finally get the hint and actually abide by the site rules and guidelines. It didn't work... Archive profile After my first deletion, this is what I had to say: "Ok, My entire account was deleted and I am not sure why. I tried to sign on and it just wouldn’t work, I searched for my story and it wasn’t their, I searched for my pen name, and it wasn’t there either, so IDK what that’s all about but I am soooo annoyed." This is what I sent after my eighth deletion: "My stories have been hidden from Adultfanfiction because they are saying I am under age and this is the fourth time this has happened. I'm not underage." Want to know when those accounts were created? Here's a list: JenMarie – registered May 17, 2009 – 15 years old DarkDesire – registered June 1, 2009 – 15 years old JenMarie – registered June 6, 2009 – 15 years old openmind – registered June 30, 2009 – 15 years old JennMarie55 – registered October 25, 2009 – 16 years old JennMarie – registered October 25, 2009 – 16 years old dontforget1 – registered December 11, 2010 – 17 years old XxScriboxX – registered July 16, 2011 – 17 years old XxScriboxX – registered May 27, 2011 – 17 years old But I didn't stop there. Afer they told me they had deleted all my hard work that I wrote while I was a minor, and posted on an adult site with no thought whatsoever to the possible legal consequences to the actual, real, human people that run the site or the owner of the site, I created another account. And another. And another. I'm also a review whore. That means I won't update unless you review. And I tell my readers lies. Yep. I tell them that I was of age, and that the site moderators "don't like me." And if I'm not telling them that, I'm telling them this: "I was over eighteen when my account was deleted (but seventeen when I made the account) and lost all of my work." See that list above? The account I'm referring to was JennMarie. I was 16, not 17. But, we already know I can't count (reference how many times I say I was deleted, and how many times I actually had been). So, then I decided that I would just violate other rules. Like flaming. That's right - I decided to flame the site. "And on a side note, I hate, hate, hate, HATE, this effing site." You know what, though? Posting here's a privilege, not a right, and I won't be able to anymore. Because not only did I do this, I was warned: "From this point, you will be monitored for any further Terms of Service and/or Content Guideline infractions. Should staff find any more, you will be Hall of Shamed for the chronic violations and permanently banned." That was after I admitted that I shouldn't have uploaded two versions of the same story. This is what I was told: "Normally, the fourth account gets you permanently banned. It certainly has any other user who persisted in returning to the site prior to their 18th birthday." And that's absolutely true. I was given a chance that all of those other children weren't, ONLY because my account was deleted after I had turned 18. And this has been addressed ad nauseum by the moderators in the forum - just go here: http://www2.adult-fanfiction.org/forum/index.php?app=core&module=search&search_in=forums and type in JennMarie or Traded and you'll get a ton of threads about my inability to have consideration for the legal repercussions of my actions. I told the site admin that I was "unaware" of the risk my presence posed to the site itself while I was underage. But you know what? I tell everyone I'm a history major, and history majors have to read - a LOT. So, I should have been able to read "By entering these Archives you are stating that you are 18 years of age or older and that you are allowed to view adult material in your area." "By accessing AFF and/or creating an account I agree that I am at least 18 years of age and legally allowed to view adult related material." And I should have been able to read the entirety of this document: http://www.adult-fanfiction.org/guidelines.php I should have paid attention to the last paragraph of the Terms of Service: "You understand that if any of the above requirements are violated that your account and/or submissions are subject to being hidden, edited, deleted, or being taken control of by the administrators of the site, without notice. You understand that your ability to return to the site after these actions are taken is solely at the discretion of the site's staff and is not subject to discussion." But I didn't. And those failures are my own, no matter how much I want to blame the staff for them. I received a warning that I would be banned, something that in the past has only ever been sent to still underage children to warn them to keep away from the site if they want the privilege of being here once they're adults. So because I've decided that I'm entitled to break the rules and regulations of the site, and because I've decided that their warnings meant nothing, I'm not allowed here anymore. I'm permanently banned. You'll never be able to read my works here again. Ever. Any flames in the forum or to TOS or admin mail about the banning of this user can and will result in repercussions on the flamer's account. Any flames sent to staff members individually will be addressed in the same manner as well. Take note of the Terms of Service you agree to by accessing the site (no flaming is allowed), and understand that those regulations are universally and equally applied.

Out of curiosity, which build of IE are you using?

I've got the March 12th build installed on my machine. Tried to duplicate the issue, and was unsuccessful. You may need to check your browser setting for 3rd party scripting. If that's not allowed, you'll have problems.

Seeing as how I don't write, I'll still answer as a reviewer. As busy as I am on any given day, if I take the time to read your work, I'll ALSO take the time to review it. Being the sort of person who tends to answer things short and to the point to begin with, I don't think I've ever left a super long review.

Are you in the process of writing a story for it, or do you have a story ready to add?

The old profiles will be deleted soonish. At this point, the fields are still in place while we still have returning users who need the data. Once certain parts of the upgrade are completed, those fields and that page will disappear entirely.

I submitted the site for retest to them again. As I said, it's all clean. It tests clean, NO ONE has been in the files except for me (I can tell that with date/time stamps among other things), so there is no reason for this.
