Updates?

[cariad]

Yes levantegirl - please do encourage the authors to do so. It is all I can do, and I have done so. I think it is a great idea, and one which I suspect would increase the readership of the stories. You might like to PM Electric Badger about it, since that part of forums is very much his baby.

I was also curius about the updates but mobius is a patiant curmugion and reconises the hard work that rabit1 and for that mator his fine moderators are doing for this site.

As I have read this thread I will not make any judgements or coments on wether this site is being managed correctly or not as Moby is thankfull to have a great archive of storys that he has read from this site going back many many years of the days of yor.

So I want to thank the owners of the site Tiger Rabit1 thank you for your dedication and hard work.

HORRAY Rabbits ok,

I would suggest as I had before along with others here that any authors who want to get there stuff up right away to start a thread in the story section and keep posting to it. THank you all for your understanding and support, it means a lot to all of us.

[La Toya]

I have just spoken to Rabbit on IM.

He is still very busy with r/l, but is starting to see the end of this project and will hopefully be back before too long.

Well It's Great someone as heard from Rabbit. I have been sitting back, as others have, waiting to see what was going on.

Let's just be happy Rabbit is OK, and does have a life outsite of this web site. As another person as already stated, This site as tons of stories, that should keep those who are new happy for about 6 to 7 months.

For those of us who are following a writer(s) or story(s), we just have to hang of a little longer.

i have just been back into some of my favourites and checked out some of the authors i particularly enjoy to see if i have missed any of their stories.

and am i ever glad that i did!
amazing stories, so well crafted, buried deep in the vaults like pirates treasure!
ladies and gentlemen, set forth on your won treasure hunt, see what gems and jewels you can find.

Beaming from ear to ear here.

*gives a happy bounce*

Nothing like someone being away for a while to make you truly appreciate them and what they do!

Well, I'm glad to hear Rabbit's OK. Passs on my best if you're chatting again.

[igachu80]

You know, I've been viewing this site on and off for years (mostly on), and I've never seen it go so long without an update. I never really thought until now about how remarkable that is--especially for free. This is quite a large site to keep going. Actually, I just peeked in to see if anything was seriously wrong. Glad to see everyone's okay. I've never posted on the forums before, so hi everybody.

Just wanted to let you know I appreciate all the hard work.

Awesome post, I like that you put up a link to a buried treasure you enjoyed. Anyone else?

[cariad]

Whilst I have really missed Rabbit, both as a fellow admin and as a friend, it is wonderful to see some of our lurkers coming out of the woodwork. I do hope that you now you have taken the plunge to make your first posts and found that you have survived the experience you will consider posting elsewhere.

Have to agree, the good Dr Mabeuse (in blu's link) was totally unknown to me, and what a sensual, suspenseful writer he is! The cheerleader story...even if the scenario is formally simple it's sooo hot.

[goodgirl_85]

I wonder if Rabbit kept updating the stories but stopped posting in threads if this much attention would be paid?

I am glad He is ok, thank you cariad for the update.

Given this situation and the popularity and size of this site, would it be worth coming up with a contingency plan in case something did happen to Rabbit? I'd hate to see BDSM Library disappear because of a single "point of failure". Could some of the work be delegated to you other moderators in future?

And I say this as a one-man-band running a moderately popular site of my own.

[cariad]

That is a very good point reynard, and I am sure it is one which, once Rabbit's inbox is empty, he and Tiger will consider.

*looks around for any mods sitting down doing nothing except waiting for further work to be delegated to them*

Bother, their are hiding again! Oh no, they are sleeping exhausted at their computers.

*Tiptoes around leaving a drink, cookie and thank you note next to each sleeping mod*

Seriously reynard - it is a great idea, thank you for your concern for the site, and I am convinced it will be considered.

[mkemse]

I realize Rabbit1 is tied up with a r/l situation right now, but I am supprised that Tiger has not even updated recently

[cariad]

Perhaps you would not be surprised if you knew how busy Tiger was.

What is Tiger so busy doing?

The front page was changed to say "Stories updated 1/may/07" 3 days ago. we still have no new stories. Shortly before that all the ads were changed. In 8 days we will have gone for an entire month with no new updates. If there is only 1 person that can do the updates perhaps tiger needs to look into getting someone to help him out.

I am fairly certain Tiger probably has a real life that does not focus completely on line...

[Tallyman]

Good things come to those who wait.

Dairac still has a point that more than one person should be able to upload stories. In my experience, it is never a good idea to have a single person in charge of ANY part of a website, else the site will go through frequent phases of death and life.

And as Caraid has pointed out earlier in this thread that will be something that is looked at....

Until that happens getting impatient won't help the situation....

[heycarrieanne]

I usually just read and lurk, like a good little sub girl. But IRL in my office every one knows how to do all the various computer BS just in case someone gets sick, has an emergency or just gets fed up and walks out one day in a fit! I do appreciate the hard work Rabbit does and I am sorry for having taken him--and the story updates--for granted.

Is ANYONE's personal life your business? THIS IS A FREE SITE. It's not for us to ask a question like that. Go have a glass of wine, beer, whatever, and WAIT. Or try WRITING a story? That always helps me. Use your own imagination! Even if I never send them in (I have several), I still write when a fantasy comes along.

If I was Tiger....
Reading this thread lately.....
The thread concerning chat.....
I might would be considering letting things ride longer just to cool off the myriad of hot heads that are on my board.

but that is just me. but if i think it.. perhaps he is thinking it too.

[gagged_Louise]

Well, Rabbit is back and the long wait is over. Just got a pm from the Man (reply to a pm I'd sent long before) and a batch of fresh stories will be up tomorrow.

[sylvia_ber]

That sounds great!

[nk_lion]

Welcome back Rabbit

[OttifantSir]

Yeah! The omnipresent furball is back!! Hipp hipp hooray!!

[heycarrieanne]

{{smiles in delight and blows Rabbit a kiss}

[cariad]

Not only is the furry one back - but he has published some stories!

Rarely has one person been missed by so many.

[annie]

Thinks it would be nice for everyone to learn from this...

To learn to show appreciation more often to Rabbit and the other MOD's/Administrators who help to keep this site going...

Thanks guys! Welcome Back Rabbit!
