keep the fanfiction coming people

just would like to say thanks to everyone who has submitted their work to the site recently and to again to ask you all to keep sending your work in, also if you can spread the word about the site and forums it would be appriciated

like I said before if things dont pick up at the site soon in the shape of submissions/donations etc  then we may have to have some ads on the site and forums to help with the server costs but I'll put the ads off as long as possible

donations/forum update

as  you are aware running the site and forums are not free and the site has been ad-free since I relaunched it (As you know I really hate the ads)  but unless we start getting some donations towards the site fees in the shape of either donations or the several add-on options that I have made avaliable on the forums then we may have to start having some ads on the site and on the forums in order to keep the site online. also could all of you reregister at the new forums if you have not already done so the link is at the top of the page in the main menu or you can click here

As always if you have any problems with the site or the new forums then either open a helpdesk ticket on the new forums or contact me via email

Thanks people!

Welcome to new members / Official Forums software to be changed

I would like to welcome all the members that have joined us recently thanks for joining us here at fanfictionworld.org

also as I mentioned a while ago the fanfictionworld.org official forums software is to be changed and improved the forum software will be changed within the next week and will intregrate a new gallery as well as the donation system and several other new features

 the current forum has served the site well however with the changes that come with software and features of software its time for the site to have a new forum  as we are moving software all members who had a forum account will need to re-register their forum account

also this means that I am now looking for several members to help setup, test, run and moderate the new forums so if thats something that you would like to be considered for then do let me know

remember a bio is required

ok people you know the rules and im getting tired of having to remind you all of them

When registering you must fill out the bio section of the user account creation form with just a bit of info about yourself and by a bit I dont mean a single word all offending accounts that the bio was blank have been deleted from the server also all spammer/suspected hacker accounts have also been deleted next step if you lot dont start following the site rules will be an I.P ban so basically follow the rules or I can and will take action against your accounts

Server bill is now due / Staff Required

As I have mentionedon the forums, the server bill is now due for the site and as you all know the site partly relies on donations to help fund the main server that runs fanfictionworld.org but failing that the site hasant recieved any donations since we started operating I have been funding the server myself, without any ads on the site or forums (As I really hate the ads) however during the next few months I may have to consider putting some ads both on the main site and on the forums in order to help keep us online, hope it wont come to that but just mentioning it now as a heads up in case I have no option,

Also the site needs some reliable staff members so if your reliable and would like to help the site out by donating your time ( a few hours each week) and effort into helping run the main site and the forums there are now positions open so do contact me either via email or the forums PM system (staff members do get given some additional features of the site like an email account and stuff like that)

system issue - system does not recognise - in usernames

I have discovered that the account system on the site does not like the - character in usernames and you will not be able to log into the site if your username contains a -

the simple solution is to use a space or an underscore (_) instead of the -

I will be looking into this issue further and will be looking through the members system to see if anyone else is affected by this and will take the appriopiate action

so for now please do not use a - in your username here at the main site , as far as I know the forums are not affected by this issue

for anyone else having this issue(before I go through the members system) feel free to contact me with your username as I can re-enable access for you

Thanks to relaxedcandy who brought this issue to my attention
