    Implemented No Self-Liking Chapters

    (In my head) "Like... Like... L-lick? Lick? No, that's not right... Like..." :eek:

    Planned More trophies

    I think the most useful and important awards to implement first would be any that encourage feed back from users, especially commenting. A couple trophies along this line could push some more passive readers to contribute criticism and voice their opinions when they would otherwise stay silent...

    Implemented No Self-Liking Chapters

    I've noticed some authors artificially raise their total "Likes" by immediately liking their chapters as they publish them. This has resulted in some authors spamming some 600 chapters and gaining "Likes" related trophies because they "Liked" it themselves. I feel like those achievements should...

    Idea: Attack of the Choya-Robots

    Unironically, reverse rape by emotionless robots is something I like.

    The Free Dictionary and a Resource on Grammatical Errors

    I find that using a thesaurus is helpful. Typically I know what I want to say, but the way I usually want to say it is boring or worse... I've used a certain word too often!

    Writers Wanted: CHYOA Patreon Page

    I would like to volunteer as a writer. Also, "Nemo of Utopia" brings up a good point. Perhaps we should list here what we typically write so it is easier to find a suitable writer for the requested chapter. For example, I focus my work on virtually everything Nemo is not a fan of: Mind Control...

    Multiple "Catagories" per story:

    We could expand on what Literotica does: 10 tags and an overall category. We could eliminate the category part and instead have just a certain number of tags.

    Multiple "Catagories" per story:

    I think this is one of the most important suggestions that needs to be implemented as soon as possible. Too many stories fall under more than one category. This is also a good alternative. In addition to custom tags, the site should create a list of common predefined tags so people aren't...

    Word Count in Stories

    Just wanted to clarify with a picture of what I imagine. This way when a reader comes to the front page, they can take both the chapter depth and the actual amount of words in the story when deciding how interested they are in it. I agree with this as well, perhaps an option when creating the...

    Word Count in Stories

    In addition to "Chapter Depth" (or perhaps replacing it) should be "Word Count" when viewing the little story blurbs on the front page. I think both metrics are important to determine how much content there actually is in a story and some readers may prefer one or the other. I'll admit I have...

    Change "Notable Writers" Section

    The "Notable Writers" section of the front page could use some change. There should be a system that randomly picks 10 or so writers that have a certain threshold of activity (likes, fan gains, etc.) every week. This would give more exposure to other writers, other than just having the same 10...

    question

    It's important to comment if you have actual criticism (poor grammer/formatting, bad sentence structure, nonsensical plot, etc.), now more than ever because the site has disabled "Dislikes". If people don't at least comment to let them know what's wrong, they'll continue posting blindly and make...

    How wicked an author are you? (poll)

    I voted myself as a 5. The only chapter I've ever written where I felt kinda bad about the fictional characters was one where the protagonist sees a lesbian proposing to her girlfriend in the town square... and then stops time and has his way with both of them, ruining their perfect moment. :oops:

    If Chyoa was a place.

    How do we submit our stories? Do we comment on the story or something?

    Should have, could have, would have. Lost ideas.

    As one of the biggest in-chapter picture users, sometimes you just have to settle for good, even if the picture isn't absolutely perfect. Remember, you can always go back and change something you don't like!

    How exactly is "Story of the Week" chosen?

    So, to sum up. These are some of the requirements that are evident so far: The story must have 25 chapter depth and an unknown number of total chapters. It seems that if you can just spam until you hit a thread of at least 25, you qualify. Chapter length, quality or feedback (such as...

    Post suggestions here!

    I would like for a way to better communicate with my fans, maybe a way of easily mass-messaging them. Could be that you could create statuses in a fashion similar to social media that is displayed in your profile and fans would receive a notification. I write short stories that don't really have...

    I'm the only one demoralized by this?

    RicoLouis is doing all of the authors of the site a huge service. He is giving us a centralized resource that we can use to gain insight on the myriad of preferences our readers have and what we can do to help provide for them should you choose to. The various polls that he has put out will...
