Guest Donkingkong Posted January 19, 2023 Report Posted January 19, 2023 Is there any way we normies can support the site @WillowDarkling ? Donations? PayPal? Quote
WillowDarkling Posted January 19, 2023 Report Posted January 19, 2023 Thank you so much for that, Donkingkong. I know that before all of these attacks we had a donation link in the Archives, and all donations went towards hosting costs and such things. But I don’t know what the status of that is at the moment. We’ll have to ask @DemonGoddess or @manta2g or @BronxWench about that, I’m afraid. But I am certain, whether it be now, or after we’re back up and running, all donations would be so greatly appreciated. We’re all volunteers here, so all donations go towards the site in full. We do not get paid for maintaining the site. BronxWench 1 Quote
BronxWench Posted January 19, 2023 Report Posted January 19, 2023 The Donations link should be working. It’s under the Site section of the new menu. As Willow said, all donations go towards the hosting costs and to defray the costs of updates to the site. No one, from the owner on down, ever gets any money for doing what we do for AFF. We donate our time because we all believe in what AFF stands for—free expression and acceptance. WillowDarkling 1 Quote
Guest LHunt Posted January 22, 2023 Report Posted January 22, 2023 All, I was able to donated last month at least using the site...and it was received, confirmed by DemonGodess also! Quote

CrossroadsMk2 Posted January 22, 2023 Author Report Posted January 22, 2023 Same. The PayPal donations go through to Jennie Salva (which I assume is one of the real people responsible for making the site run). Quote

And yes, that is DemonGoddess061, since PayPal frowns on pen names. Quote
WillowDarkling Posted January 22, 2023 Report Posted January 22, 2023 Thank you both so much for the donations. We greatly appreciate the help. Quote
Guest GhostOfCovid Posted January 27, 2023 Report Posted January 27, 2023 It’s crazy to think that in two weeks the site has been on read mode for four months im so glad that the last chapter posted made it as I remember it was posted just before the read mode came on Quote

I second that... ecspecily as he wishes to stretch the time between the other already written chapters. Have we not been punished enough? Quote
Extreme Posted January 28, 2023 Report Posted January 28, 2023 Or Crossroads could also post on Hentai Foundry and AO3 very popular sites most of stories i read are on both sites. Quote
CrossroadsMk2 Posted January 28, 2023 Author Report Posted January 28, 2023 Hello all. I despise Google Docs, so that definitely won't be happening. With regard to Hentai Foundry (I'm not familiar with AO3), I did consider it but their website layout is optimised for pictures and doesn't really work well for stories - especially long format ones. I'm not ready to give up on AFF, so please be patient. Besides, you haven't really missed out on much anyway - since the site's been down, I've only had time to finish 2 more chapters and started a third. Quote
Guest TR_FAN Posted January 28, 2023 Report Posted January 28, 2023 Hi, PornEater has revived and written a new short story Lara Croft and the Temple of Doom (Chapter 1) if you want to reduce the time you have to wait for AFF to go live. https://archiveofourown.org/works/44542000 Quote
Guest GhostOfCovid Posted January 28, 2023 Report Posted January 28, 2023 I don’t think anyone should give up on AFF we know that the people are working hard in their free time and it’s not like that have ignored are concerns. plus crossroads has not stopped writing so I’m happy it’s just a matter of time before we can read the new chapters Quote

No, don’t give up. WillowDarkling, BronxWench and Wilde_Guess 1 2 Quote

Guest GhostOfCovid Posted February 1, 2023 Report Posted February 1, 2023 OMG an update has finally happened so check your emails cause this is the first step to getting the site back Quote
BronxWench Posted February 1, 2023 Report Posted February 1, 2023 The emails are rolling out, but there are a few glitches that have been cropping up. Look carefully at the first link. If the word “password” appears at the very end, copy and paste the link into a new browser tab/window, backspace out that word, and then enter. That worked to let me validate (and yes, staff has to do this too!). Once you’ve validated successfully, you should be able to click the password link and reset the password. Just keep in mind the password restrictions here: 12-18 letters and/or numbers long, no spaces, punctuation or special characters allowed, case sensitive, and don’t reuse the same password or it will blank the field and force another reset. Good luck, everyone! Quote

I goofed clicking on the links without seeing these instructions, and now it says “The Password Reset is no longer valid” Might need to have another link sent to morbidfantasy12@gmail.com Thanks!

Try logging out and then logging in again. It might force a password reset for you. If not, I can add you to the queue for the manual reset. Quote
