 I think the topic about the fantasy and sci-fi story "rules" is still online, I've replied. If it's a link to another site... Then I don't know if it's broken...or still working. And yes there were dead links... But that's just the interwebs.... Some pages/sites/content just come and go.

I'm not able to repeat the issue here.  And I'm not using an Ad Blocker. 

If you do happen to be using an ad blocker, are you aware that Gay Authors can only stay open because of a combination of displaying advertising and our Premium Membership?

If you want to block ads and make sure we don't close then spend the cost of a couple of coffees and get Premium Membership:

There are no ads for Premium Members and you get access to even more great stories.

I do have an AdBlocker installed... However, I've disable it several months ago, so GA can get the revenue from the ads while I'm here. I have verified it is still disabled for GA. I also see ads on most pages as well. There's this new Amazon Book Ad, that is appearing now, and it is HUGE. Like 4 or 5 inches tall.

 

Was posting a heads-up, in case it was like one of the internal ads for someone's book, etc.

I've been getting this on my tablet and my laptop, neither of which have any sort of ad-blocker at all. Both run Chrome, on Android or Windows. As BHopper2 says, I see probably all the other commercial advertising. I wouldn't dream of blocking them.

Please try now.  It should be the Premium Content ad about coffee.

Chrome's ad blockers usually have the option to "white list" individual sites. If not, then you can always get a new one from chrome's store. :)

Advertising does rotate and change fairly often (some of it at least)
