    Hey Trandoshan12

    I approved all pending chapters, and made you and the others authors (@baggo, @manbearman, @nightsabe).

    From now on, your chapters will be published automatically without the need for further approval.

    Happy writing!

    Hey, noticed that "Be careful what you wish for" originally from sammy123 https://chyoa.com/story/Be-careful-what-you-wish-for.7225 hasn't been updated for a long time and recently had some chapters I wrote published for it with mod support. Was wondering if I could get ownership of it or at least some control on it?

    Hey BubizGalore, I added you as an author so that your chapters are approved automatically. Happy writing! :)

    Thanks a lot - however I noticed there's still nobody who can actually approve new chapters not by myself. Would it be possible to get rights to be able to look at/approve chapters by other authors too?

    Please ask grossman. It's his story and he's active. :)

    I don't think he is really active. At least I haven't been able to reach him. It is possible to give that permission to multiple users, right?

    Any feedback on this? I'm sure there are many chapters still dangling unapproved.

    As long as users are active, I usually don't intervene.

    There are no more chapters under review.

    Can we adopt stories whose authors haven't post in years, but it still has their username attached to it?

    Yes, it's more a question of user activity than story activity.

    Hi Friedman.

    Can I adopt three stories from the list, which are....

    https://chyoa.com/story/The-Cost-of-Knowledge.2179
    https://chyoa.com/story/Silver-Princess.15
    https://chyoa.com/story/Princess-Evelyn.3663

    Are they still available for adoption?

    Also, there are a dozen interesting older stories not on the list. They haven't been updated for a while and I also want to adopt them, but I don't know if they are available.

    Few of them being...
    https://chyoa.com/story/A-Day-in-the-Life-of-a-Schoolgirl.2532
    https://chyoa.com/story/After-Class.15311
    https://chyoa.com/story/Villainous.10764
    https://chyoa.com/story/The-Dungeons-of-Drath'nalak.16557
    https://chyoa.com/story/Xenoplasm.6599

    And is it possible to revive and adopt a story that has been deleted by the user? There is one that I contributed a couple chapters into, but the story is gone now.

    It's...

    Hey hookwormspx,

    I added you to most stories. Only A Day in the Life of a Schoolgirl isn't included because the owner was active recently.

    Happy writing! :)

    There are two (almost identical) chapters from you in the mentioned story.

    If you want, I can send you the content of it.

    Is it possible to revive the entire story?

    The author/story owner might have reasons why they don't want their content to be publicly accessible anymore.
    Additionally, the author of a chapter has the copyright on the content they produced.
