Trollmia Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 I'm not the most active member in the forum - and I'm myself is the first to admit that... Never the less... but going back in the archives of stories... I realize... there's something a miss here... Something that you can see for sure if the author is DONE with the story or NOT. A "complete"-button so to speak. Sure this will not make do for the writers that left us and left their stories uncompleted here, but those that are still active and have made a complete story, there should be something to MARK IT as complete... Is this a bad idea? Personally - I would love such a mark of some kind. And of course - there should also be a button for Unfinished stories (Work in progress) or a mark as well. Here's an idea to make space in AFF-servers. If the author does not update an unfinished story in 2 years (I know I will be a target for it too)... check it together when the author was logged in... (if it has been more than a year since the author has logged in)... why not remove the story...?? It gives those with new stories and ideas more playroom... Well, this is just me fooling around with ideas that pops up... Good/Bad... or perhaps even - damn it's horrible... It is still just ideas.. So what do you say folks? Sincerely Trollmia or Atropa (which ever you prefer - it's the one and the same person in the end)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sincerely Trollmia or Atropa (which ever you prefer - it's the one and the same person in the end)... That's a great idea and I agree! Frequently, I'm entering '+completed' in the search in both the title and the summary area to try and located fics that are done. That'd be very helpful...Maybe when the person marks it something, there is some kind of icon, color or marking that makes those fics stand out?

DemonGoddess Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 As you all know, the current software doesn't have that capability. But, we already have planned that for a tool in the new stuff. Should make for better search options, at the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
