Any chance ?

Hi, I was just asking myself if there's any new story behind the corner.
It'a about a month that nothing has been published and thinking about the old good times when this was a daily thing I'm getting sad.
Is there any software problem or is a question of time? I understand that everybody here has a life to live, is there any way we can help to restore the great Eunuch Archive Story section ?
Thanks again
P

The story section is alive and well.
The forums are quiet because we removed the political crap, which has no place here. The good old political times will not be returning.

Cainanite wrote last month that there would be no more stories until the software was fixed, and he hasn't said anything about stories since. I never followed the political stuff here, but I also never understood the point of banning it when there was always the option of not getting involved. There's clearly a lot of anger behind that, but I've never seen an explanation. Could one of the mods perhaps write a calm, non-red-lettered, normal-size-font post explaining the history of political discussion on EU and why it is now banned?

Yes. The story section is alive and well. News about new stories are on the front page of the website.
However.
I just got off the phone with our crack editing staff instructing them on how to use the new submission software so I know of at least one new story that has been published today. More are probably on the way soon. New submission software you say? Yep, with the new servers we had to scrap the old stuff and write new. Takes time as you kindly understand because yes we all do have day jobs hehe.
Look under the new story index for anything he is putting in.

Will some stories that were in the fiction archive return? I can't seem to find two stories by the same author which I can't recall his name but wrote The Witch's Lair and Kieran and the Spider. Perhaps they were renamed?

Thanks for all the work you do on the archive.
Would it be at all possible to show the posting date on the new story section, or put the new ones at top.
