Well, that 1000 chapters award won't earn itself. Do appreciate the shout out though. I would say that repetition is one of my weaknesses as a writer (the price of having a crazy output). I'm currently experimenting with having my previous chapter open in a tab. That way I can give it a quick...

IMO, I find game mode a lot of work that most people seem to ignore (judging by like patterns). Then again my most successful story is the only story that has game mode so what do I know? I'm so glad that the shit I wrote in high school has mostly been deleted/destroyed. Tell you the truth...

Well, I guess there's no harm in bombing already barren lands ;)

Got into writing smut a few years ago on Noveltrove as a way to express and explore whilst practicing my writing skills. Have always had an interest in storytelling/entertaining in general. Chose the name Ben Rosewood as it sounded like the name of a Mills and Boons-esque love interest (if only...

Was thinking of doing something like this, but running it like The Barren Lands (AKA as an actual game that is played by the authors who then write out the results)

I had a similar situation recently and I feel I handled it pretty well: -User posted chapter that I felt was of poor quality, despite being an interesting idea -I messaged them directly about what needed to improve and told them I would post it if said improvements happened. -The user asked me...

I'd recommend you defer to gene.sis's answers as he's an actual moderator.

1) Yes, you can delete any chapter on a story you own, however, any chapter past it must also be deleted (for example, if it is Chapter 3 and someone has added six more chapters, those chapters will also have to go). I'd also say that deleting someone else chapter that you have approved will...

Have you double checked that you've posted it correctly =  ? I always leave the [] empty. Also be sure that there's no spaces in the () . Without knowing what you're linking I can't say if the link is the issue, but I've never had an issue with a link

Go to My Stories > Edit Story (alternatively you can go to the first page of your story and then type in /edit at the end of the web address). From there you should be able to change a bunch of things including category

That wasn't anywhere near as bad as I expected TBH. Still not interested, but I guess I learned something new.

I'm afraid to google this...

If you make an error and no one comments on it before you fix it, did you really make an error?

That reminds me of that Russian dude who wanted to create an ape-human hybrid https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/the-russian-government-once-funded-a-scientists-quest-to-make-an-ape-human-hybrid-5043859/ (which most certainly crosses the line into bestiality, but you could insert him...

Whilst I believe the intent is pure, I feel some authors might find such things 'passive-aggressive'. I also don't see how this would help an author unless you communicate with them, as it's hard to view one's work subjectively.

Finished stories are rare on CHYOA. Barely any of my stories/threads have 'endings'. Right now I've got at least 5 stories (each with multiple threads) I'm actively posting on in addition to planning out new stories. If I'm being honest, I enjoy being able to bounce around my active threads as...

You know as an author I do often chose the form of the destructor. Does that mean I'm a ghostbuster as well?

Which is fine in theory, but still has the potential to remove creative control from the original writer. You're putting a lot of faith in editors/story owners to do the right thing and whilst I'm certain 90% would, there's potential the 10% could ruin it for everyone. I also feel this ignores...

This would be too easy to abuse to be practical. What happens when edits change the core of the work? What happens if multiple people make multiple changes? This also could have the potential to take away creative freedom from the author if they're contributing to another story.
