I post some of my fics at ff.net under the pen-name of
Crystal-Nmrodel, but yesterday I encountered a problem.

I posted a new story and it didn't show up on the Just In page. So, coming to it again this morning, I deleted the story, and re-uploaded it and again, it hasn't shown up. The funny thing is that other people's fics submitted today AFTER mine, have shown up in the J.I page.

Any thoughts?

Thanks Smile

ff.net is Teh Evil?

I've never quite worked out how ff.net works. All I know is that the stories shown on the J.I page seem to be pretty random due to the speed it's updated. Don't worry about it; your story will show up everywhere else.

Hmmm, well, it can take some time for stories to upload, you gotta give it about 24 hours for stories to upload. And remember that lots of stories are being uploaded, it can be that your story was considered 'old' because all kinds of new stories were uploaded.

Give it 24 hours, and check the section, for example lord of the rings, to see if it's up. Hope this helps.

I’m in the process of uploading my Matrix / Dr Who crossover on FF.net at the moment, mainly because I couldn’t think of anywhere else to post a story like that. It never showed up on the Just In page either, though I have two reviews so people must be able to find it.

I have no idea how FF.net works but I do like the way it emails you when you get a review. That’s about the only thing I like about it to be honest.

I just uploaded My Hairy Prisoner and Lanëa Nyérë a few days ago but I dont see either of them. *Shrug* It is probably a rare person on ff.net who would actually appricate them anyway. Lanëa Nyérë, especially.. its not exactly teeny-bopper-friendly (yes, you detect a motive. Laughing )

I even did a search on the criteria for my fic and it didn't come up. wtf

Oh well.

FF net is great if you want to reach out to lots of people. It's being a pain though, most of the times not working and all.

I think right now they've been upgrading their servers again...making it "better".



I hate that place so much that I tend to Head bang and then maybe hurt myself. Not really, but the headaches I get from there makes me feel all Doh!
