There are no negative reactions. Just positive and neutral.

There are a lot things that go on with administrating a site. Nifty is pretty busy and it's very easy for this sort of thing to fall under the radar. And I know from personal experience that emails and such don't always get received. We appreciate the kind words. I will say that each story site has stuff they focus on and are good at. Gay Authors in intended to focus on plot and character more than the aspects that Nifty tends to focus on. For people that want plot and character, we're in good shape. For people that want other aspects, we are not so good at those. We try to stay focused on making Gay Authors the best Gay Authors we can be and let other sites do their thing. It's not a zero-sum game. Plenty of room for everyone to do the thing. As for the original topic, we try very hard to avoid bait and switch situations here. Unfortunately, at times there can be the appearance of such. For example, some authors choose to take down their content completely to e-publish somewhere. Sometimes, we are able to negotiate keeping the content on site, but in premium instead of losing it completely. This can appear to be a bait-and-switch, if you were reading it free and suddenly it went premium. I think I rambled again.

Happy New Year!

@drpaladin, just a guess, but I'd say "Zombies"...

We've got that and it's called Lake Erie...

Neither did I. lol

Yes. I also flushed the cache, so to speak, after reading your post. If anything weird was going on with that... (it happens from time to time that makes the blog format get messed up), it should have cleared it.

Yes. They can also go down if someone removes a like.

There is a delay for caching sometime. There are also occasional hiccups... but the server usually flags something being wrong. Generically, I see nothing. Is there a specific story you are having an issue with?

I was there. https://www.uscho.com/recaps/2002/02/08/rit-punishes-neumann-24-0/

Heaven save us from Karen...

I really despise these big tech companies. If you just post the T-word for female mammary glands, Google throws an absolute fit and flags the content and I have to deal with it... while at the same time Google is HOSTING millions of pictures of such content and a hell of a lot stronger. And Amazon.. their policies on eBooks drive me around the bend. So, yeah, I feel your pain @Comicality

To all those that celebrate: MERRY CHRISTMAS! I very sincerely hope you find cheer in this crazy year.

Thanks to everyone that participated this year!
