Sorry, I didn't see this when it was posted.

No, we're not archiving fics there. That archive was set up way back when this board was moved from EZBoards (It think that was the name...it was a LONG time ago) to our own, self-hosted board. There was no way to convert the threads over, so that archive was created to capture all the fics from there. It is never updated or added to. This board, itself, is meant to be an archive. That's why we prune feedback and move fics when they're finished. It's an author's responsibility to round up the links to all of their fics and create their own archives in the Work By Author forum.

Hello. I'm not sure if this is the right place to report this, but I'm unable to update the first post in my author thread. It lets me update the title, but every time I try and update the actual text, I receive the following error:

General Error
SQL ERROR [ mysql4 ]

MySQL server has gone away [2006]

An SQL error occurred while fetching this page. Please contact the Board Administrator if this problem persists.

Sorry for the late reply. Are you still having this issue?

Yes I am, and no worries. I figured you don't have reason to look at this thread often :)

I fixed it! Some of my pictures had stopped working with my hosting service and apparently that irritated the board here. Reloading them allowed me to update.

Ok, cool! I had emailed Angel to let her know of the issue, so I will let her know that it's resolved. Thanks!

Hello, I don't know if this is the right place to post this but for a while now ( 6 months or so) I haven't been getting email notification from fics I've subscribed to and I was wondering how to fix it or... if this is permanent thing?

Thanks :D

Hi, Jenna. This is a board-wide problem. No emails at all are getting sent--no topic notifications, no activation emails, nada. Unfortunately I do not have an ETA for a fix at this point.
