...I don't like it. There's soooo much whitespace I'm wearing out my scroll wheel: The entire front page went from 2 screenfulls to 4. Profile posts are 3/4 of the way down the page, where previously it was already partially visible on page load (for me on my screen, mileage may vary). Latest...

What are people's thoughts on the order in which chapter comments appear? Right now the newest comments are at the top and I find that hard to read, especially on longer threads. On the other hand, there's something to be said that the first comment readers see is the most recent one. Curious...

At the time of writing, there are a whopping 26,619 stories on CHYOA. So how do you make sure your once-in-a-generation masterpiece stands out in the crowd? Some tips, presented as an easy-to-digest numbered list. Note that these are PR tips, not writing tips. Use a cover image. Ideally it...

OK, I started this as a profile post, but I kept running out of characters, so I figured I'd make a thread. I understand that, ultimately they're camming to get paid... but before I do that, I have to actually be engaged, first, right? Like it or not, there's a huge amount of porn out there...

The version of Unicode used by CHYOA (5.1?) lacks support for just about all emoji, causing stories to break if you use any. But basically any story set in the present day will have characters who text each other, and that usually involves at least a few emoji. Not having any makes that...

I get it! You're eager for your story to be the hottest, most arousing piece of fiction ever conceived by the mind of Man. (I'm not being sarcastic: been there, done that.) So on page one, your 6'5, 220 lbs (all muscle) protagonist has a 10" cock and can cum like a firehose 6 times an hour. He...

You know why people watch soap operas? It's not for the stellar acting, the profound story arcs, or the fascinating setting: John the carpenter's wife Mary has an affair with the much younger Steve the bartender, but he's her step-sister's son. She gets pregnant... with quintuplets! John...

Forum threads in subforums are displayed in batches of 20. Currently, 6 of the 15 (unpinned) threads on the first page of the General subforum are "looking for a story" thread, which tend to have 1 or 2 posts and then die out. I'd like to see an official thread for such requests so they don't...

When I try to insert an external URL in a story (to credit the creator of an image I used), the & symbols in the URL are changed into &, breaking the link. This happens regardless of whether I use the # button or the [text](link) Markdown notation.

I noticed I enjoy writing the most when I totally submerge myself in my protagonist's experiences. When they're stressed, I'm stressed. When they're happy, I'm happy. When they're turned on, I'm turned on. That also tends to produce the prose that I'm most pleased with. But that got me...

I quoted this in another thread: And that got me curious about the CHYOA writer community: are you more of a gardener or an architect?

Tired of seeing authors posting stories you're just not interested in? Maybe you just don't like the way they write, or the fetishes they write about just aren't for you? Then this script is for you! Just fill in the author names near the top of the script, and you're good to go. To use this...
