Thank you for speaking up, Madeline!

To echo the others, please please please post your works in the Erotic Prose section, or in Story Feedback if you'd like some editing assistance.

If you'd like new material to read, the Feedback section is a great place to start: there are a lot of works there that could still use help, or speak up and ask if anyone wants some assistance. You'll get the first chance to read new stuff and happier, more prolific authors as a bonus!

Finally, remember that the (massive) archives of the story board are all still fully accessible; and some reviews of old stories are just the sort of thing to get authors writing again (for those who aren't aware, each time a review is written an email is sent to the author -- this works wonderfully to motivate us to pick up something we forgot about months ago).

As for some of the suggestions, you all bring up some really valid points. Ideally, we'd all love to recreate our code with the latest and greatest; but realistically, doing so threatens the free access we all treasure. And yes, there are benefits to be had from sharing out responsibility for posting and such, but there are also logical reasons not to give out that extreme level of access to too many -- particularly with the subjects we deal with here. Look back in the news about other sites who've been shut down just for posting the wrong fictional content (which is, by the by, a solid argument against automatic updates). It speaks volumes about the diligence of Rabbit and Tiger that we've had no such problems from our huge number of stories, and yet remain amazingly uncensored in our content.

So while we all look forward to seeing new updates, lets set aside the doom and gloom. There's still plenty here to enjoy and ways to contribute until our valiant leader returns.
