Don't even think about posting any more of these.

I've trashed a good dozen of them this week alone, and frankly, I'm sick of looking at them.

We've tried to keep this off the boards here, and to give the Members some relief from the constant media barrage of this topic.

If you feel the need to write it, please post it somewhere else.

Thank you.

🙋 I submitted a story called The Arab Commander's Marine-Bitch I changed it's title and resubmitted it as The Arab Commander's Bitchdog neither of them appeared on your site, why? If a story is being rejected surely I should have been informed as to the reason so I could have emended it as I don't see the reason for its rejection I can only assume something went wrong.

I thing I maybe gullible. "The fool doth think he is wise, but the wise man knows himself to be a fool". So says Shakespeare.

If one composes with an HTML editor, is it possible to post the raw HTML such that it will be parsed? This way the reader should see the author's intended formatting, including font effects (e.g. italics), etc.

We don't allow raw html posting for security reasons.

People could post stories with pop-ups, javascript exploits, redirects, or any number of things.

We also want to keep the stories fairly consistant in appearance.

No 24 point flaming pink script.

And as far as contacting authors when a story is rejected, most of the time there's no way to do so.

If you post a story and don't see it reasonably soon (a day or two) then please post a message on the forums ... that's the best way to communicate with the admins.

In re-writing the submission script I DO hope to have some way to give better feedback on story status.

Thanks@ 🙏

O.K., folks,

Ther is just no reason in the world why an author can't type up their story in M-S Word, run the spell and grammar check and the do a cut and paste into the E.A. story post when they are finished.

I mean, seriously, authors, please don't FUCK woith Paolo. He is too nice of a guy and it is not nce to piss him off constantly....

I don't believe the crap you have to put up with.

Neither do I grasp where you keep gettin the patience to deal with it.

That said, I wanted to thank you through here for helping me post.

It is as always, much appreciated and not taken for granted.

🙏

If all goes well, I'll pester you again soonish.

Mandragora,

No problem.

You owe me though.

hehehe

Here's a plotline for you : adolescent boy/girl cousins. Both circumcised to the point of the family tradition of little to no sexual enjoyment, with sex for reproduction only. They're close friends as well, and wonder about the upcoming cuttings, have stolen glances at older siblings of opposite genders.

Now there's a challenge!

I have occasionally used MS Office Word to write a few replies to the message boards. When I copy and paste the text it usually will show up as a smaller font after I post. While it's in the edit box the font size looks fine. Trying to correct this I will either get a much larger font than the previous posts, or I must revert back to smaller font. Is this some sort of glitch with Vbulletin, or compatability issues with MS Word?
