    Someone probably already reported this but Using emoji in text works in preview but when saving the edited text everything is erased up to the first Unicode emoji Example [ Line One Emoji Line Two ] The text is cut off to line one with the capture saving successfully I lost some work on...

    I think we can all agree to disagree then, thank you all for your feedback and insights.

    What, I am not following you here... So basically is it worth it overall?

    I am pretty sure I will be crushed, I just don't have that much time to write these days. When I paged through Inside the Game it seemed to all focus on exiting games and I didn't want to try and change that, to be honest as it made your story successful. I think they are similar but slightly...

    Idea The idea is to provide a platform for stories taking place in fictional video game settings. Where the amazing Inside The Game seems to focus on existing games the idea here is to allow writers to set up fictional worlds. There are a lot of stories like this on the site already, I know, I...

    Is there Correlation between Chapter Depth, Likes, and Views?

    I think another two big factors in a stories popularity is how long ago was it updated and meta tags.

    Speculation on why it is hard to do is dumb, for all I know chyoa is run on a very efficient monkey based database. You can work around the fact it wouldn't work retroactively by building export and import tools, of just saying only new stories can do this. The question really is how much work...

    "I Want More of This" Button For Readers

    All I was suggesting was a little Plus icon with a count attached to it, very similar to likes. How about this, let the author turn the option for this on or off on certain chapters, just default it to off. As for the comments, most people don't leave comments. I think they find it embarrassing...

    Yeah something like that, I knew someone had to of already requested it I just didn't see the thread As for the map idea, we talked about it like half a year ago. A map with chapter "nodes" that could be linked in a free-form way. Probably horrifyingly complex on a technical side and would have...

    "I Want More of This" Button For Readers

    90% no, 10% yes, that makes it worth it also Most readers don't make an account, but some do and those who do sometimes use the like system as "More" and sometimes "Like". As an author, I can't read their mind. Some stories even use likes on specific threads as a poll system. This shows a need...

    If I had to guess the reason is that it is handled automatically by a plugin or a monolithic collection of code and the change wouldn't be worth the effort. This problem could easily be solved with the implementation of the stalled (I believe) formula paper story system.

    Planned More trophies

    This is an older thread but I want to drop in out of the blue to insert my 2 cents. I would recommend asking when talking about gamification elements in products What are we trying to reward users for and why? What do we want them to do more of? Are we trying to force users to do things they...

    Dedicated Author Notes Section

    This is my last suggestion for today I swear There are sections for a synopsis and writer guidelines in the current story format. I would like to put forward the idea of an optional dedicated author notes section. A lot of stories currently have chapters with such notes simply labeled "Author...

    This may be impossible in the current system but I want a way to reorder story options. There may be a way to do this but I am unaware of it right now. For example, I have Option 1 Option 2 Option 3 Each leading to their own story threads. I would like to be able to set it up so it reads 3...

    The Great Image Hunt

    I just wanted to drop in and say the other thing I believe is important for a cover is cropping. Because we don't have control over how an image is cropped in the thumbnail it is important to choose something which is still effective when cropped in. One solution is to crop the image yourself...

    Richer author story sorting

    I have a lot of stories I have either started or have been added two and it is becoming a pain to manage. I am in the minority of minorities of users though so this is not a high priority issue at all. Some form of folder system or even an archive for stories I am not working on and don't want...

    "I Want More of This" Button For Readers

    A user may like a story because they like it, or because they want more, it can be hard to tell which. I would like to see a plus icon added as a way for users to say "More of this thread" I would like it if you didn't need an account to use this feature. I understand though that might be...
