Just wanted to help spread some good news.  Many people have used
AdultFanFiction.net for quite some time for all sorts of fanfictions
from a huge variety of genres.  Many of us have lately started to
`abandon' the site because of numerous problems with formatting,
garbling of text of our stories as they moved servers, trolls,
plagiarists, etc.

I am not a moderator or an owner of this site in any way.  I am an
author there, and I am delighted to say that they are undergoing a
huge overhaul, with many moderators now helping the site owner so that
it is not one person trying to do all the work herself.  They have
been combing the site to get rid of the problems and be more
accessible to the users.  They have even created a Yahoo group to
address problems and questions quickly—my question was dealt with in
less than six hours. 

Here is a message posted by one of the Moderators to another Yahoo
group to which I belong.  I'm posting this to all my relevant groups
so that more people can have their problems sorted out and know that
AFF.net is once again going to be a good place to go for your fanfictions.

The message:

"If anyone is having an issue with their stories at the AFF site,
please join the AFFProblems list at Yahoo, we promise personalized
attention. We have sections built into our database for us to go and
review on a daily basis which problems to tackle first. *and yes
they are addressing the issue of the 'garbling' that went on when
they changed servers* That will take time to sort out.

If anyone has an issue of stolen fictions, please provide us with
links and publish dates to your original story, and the links to the
offending writer. We do investigate each case, give the offending
writer an opportunity to respond and then take action as required.
We've bounced off about 6 Plague offenders and several Trolls on the
list already (guys that post one word or line under their story
heading)

If anyone sees this kind of thing going on, please report it to us as
soon as possible..

Thanks for the soapbox time ...:)

Here's the link for the Problems:
