Story Site Issues, Etc.

[cranberry]

I'm having a similar problem. I can't add stories to my library shelf. This happened several months ago, though I thought the problem had been fixed. Obviously not, as it's back to giving me the same message. You're not logged in, go to the forums etc. I do this, and keep going round in circles. Someone needs to seriously address this this long running re occurring problem.

[cranberry]

Hi, yes I have clicked the remember me box. Logged out, logged in etc. but still the same old problem. I agree BDSM Library is a great site and a fantastic resource, and will be even better when hopefully the various technical difficulties are sorted out. Thank you for your quick reply to my query. I really just want to add the occasional story to my shelf. Cheers.

Just want to add that I'm having a similar problem that is preventing me from reviewing a story.

[geedoch]

This is a great site and I've been with it for years. I was pleased to see it getting a new lease of life and coming back into providing up t0 date stories.
But....I can't access my bookshelf or add anything to it I get told to go to Forum and log in..but I'm logged in. Any solution folks ?

[slaveboy 6]

I don't know what it will take for the Administrator to fix that problem. Every time I try to rate a story, I get told Im not logged in, when I am.

[cranberry]

Hi max
Thanks for your reply. Like your stories by the way. Have you written any more. If so, I might get a chance to add them to my library shelf hopefully when the tech problem is fixed. Cheers.

I've had the same issue for years now. As the site seems to be starting a revival, hopefully that will soon be fixed. Posting reviews and adding stories to personal bookshelves were great functionalities.

[Aurelie.Catena]

Just a bit of FYI here. If you don't check the "remember me" box during log in system says your not logged in. ow this is NOT the only issue with the story site,,, we have just changed over to a new site server and that alone was a monumental change. We are in process of still working outt bugs but every thing has a priority.

A few bugs were fixed with the server change and more are still being worked on..

Patience is a virtue

And please keep in mind that it is still the Number one BDSM site on the net and still 100% FREE to its members!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Thanks for the update, Torq.

BDSM Library is still my favourite source of kinky stories. Thanks for keeping it alive. The most important is that those thousands of stories remain accessible. Everything else is icing on the cake. From what I understand, this is now ensured for some more time thanks to this new server.

Next comes the possibility for everyone to post new stories, and it's good to know that you are working on it.

The shelves are very practical, and are unique to the BDSM Library. I'll be very happy when they come back, but this is nevertheless way less important than the first two points.

Cheers!

just an FYI - I'm having the same problem of not accessing the reviews whether I "remember me" or not
cheers -SirStef

I just tried to review, "Taken Back To The English Ranch" and was informed I wasn't signed in, but I was.

[cranberry]

Yes, still can't add stories, to my shelf yet. Of course it's a great site. No question, though hopefully someone will one day sort this little difficulty out.
Cheers

About story reviews -
I haven't been able to read or add story reviews for several months, even after checking 'remember me'
just a FYI to the techs. -SS

[tiffanyanyway]

I can't seem to get into my bookshelf. Everytime I click on it, it takes me back to the click forum or register page. Been going on for a few weeks.

[joshjg]

What on earth is going on with the site? No updates in almost two months again! Just as things looked like they were starting up again it has all ground to a halt. I used to be a regular visitor, now I stop by every couple of weeks not expecting any new content but crossing my fingers and hoping.

Are there website issues? Is new content not being submitted? Is no one running the site any more?

[XenMon22]

It's pretty disappointing. I know several authors who've been waiting for over half a year for their stories to be put on the site, with zero communication from the admins.

I get that real life comes first and that the site's been having tech issues, but it'd be nice if they let us know what's going on every once in a while.

[slaveboy 6]

When I first joined this site, it was because of the stories. I still read them every once in a while, but I still can't review them. And I don't even bother sending them any stories. What's the use?

[joshjg]

Three weeks later and still nothing. Last story update was 21st April.

Anyone know any other good sites that have replaced this one?

[mysterious]

This is so sad. This place use to be the best site on the web for stories, and now it's terrible. I come back each week, just hoping things have gotten fixed, but nothing. And no responses from Admins at all.

[Rocky]

Has anyone heard anything from Torq or any other Admin? It sure would be nice to get some sort of update as to what's going on. Is the site simply on autopilot now? Is there any work being done on getting stories and updates uploaded? Does anyone know what the heck is going on?

[mysterious]

3 days later an no response from an admin. I think autopilot has officially crashed in a fiery blaze. Sad to see the downfall of what use to be one of the best libraries on the web.

[Rocky]

Yet there appears to be at least one Admin around, because people are being approved for tasking society access. Sure wish someone would let us know WTF is going on here. Even if it's bad news, I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to know.

[XenMon22]

Isn't Torq the only one who can update the story site? I doubt the other admins know anything.

This is just the inevitable result of having a single person in charge of basically everything. It was never a matter of if the site would die, but when.

[SirStef]

No new stories since April ! Really?

[Rocky]

I'd just like to know. I mean...is Torq dead, in jail, in the hospital? Is work getting in the way? Did he just lose interest? I mean, does anyone know WTF is happening here?

[Mright]

Where have people moved to? I have some stories that I would like to publish, but I have no idea where to do so now. My stories are a bit too extreme for Literotica :-(

[Granitron]

Aye, this is what I'd like to know. If here's not being updated, where else is good for similar stories?

[Rocky]

I've visited and uploaded to storiesonline.net, but you need a paid subscription to access all the services. You can still read, though. I've found that the users there aren't as receptive to stories I've posted there as the folks here are to the same stories, though.

[XenMon22]

I know one or two who've gone to Wattpad. deviantART is an option and has a huge userbase, but it's not really good for more extreme stuff. For that extreme stuff, there are a bunch of fantasy forums like ravishu.com that have Story sections for them.

Unfortunately, there's nothing as good as this place.

Gromets Plaza | Bondage, Selfbondage, Mummification, Latex, Packaged & Erotic Stories


Has pretty much the same content. No search system like here but content wise it's the same.

[Rocky]

Thanks, Torq. I happened to check this morning, and saw that there were updates. Occasional status reports like this - telling us what's going on, how to submit stories and updates when the submission feature is down, etc. - is really helpful, and will help reduce consternation on the part of your patrons. Thank you again for your hard work and the status update.
