Hi Platypus.<br>
 
-
You obviously have a lot of experience with this website and its users and content. Could you just give me a quick (honest) opinion/review on this story I have been working on for a while. Rate it out of ten, tell me if its good or not, give feedback, whatever. Two or three sentences is all I need. Here it is: [[120 Minutes Remain]] <br>
 
-
P.S: It's not yet fully finished. The categories are going under some extreme editing and there may be occasional spelling mishaps. The story itself is also a W.I.P, but I only ask for a review on the (current) content and not the layout or the length. <br>
 
-
Thanks!

Sorry for bugging you again. I know I could probably find this info on the wiki (I suck at using it anyway) but, just out of interest, how long have you been working on the site?

Hey dude, i do not know if i am overriding other peoples work or not, i understand the warnings, but lack the knowledge to put the information contained in said warnings to use.
+
While it is of course a bit obvious that 6 or 10 is underage, what is the lower measure allowed on the site to not be considered underage?
-
Please help, the main page has been taken over

While most countries make it illegal sexual '''images''' of women under 18, the age of consent varies, and with it the age you could '''write''' about probably does too.
 +
The most common age of consent under 18 is 16, Japan seems to allow 14, last I checked my own country was 12, which surprised me, not taking it in consideration but thought important to mention.
-
@Platypus Thank You for correcting it. I may be an English major, but I'm certainly no Grammar Nazi, so I tend to miss things fairly often. I usually correct it if I notice. Sorry bout that. Looking forward to working with you!
+
Either way my point is, at what age is it allowed to be written about without breaking the "no underage sexual content" rule?

@Platypus, I apologize for making my first entry here so sloppy. I occasionally write, but not all the time, resulting in a wobbly mess of a entry. With Sincerest Apologies, [[User:YouCouldMakeAReligionOutOfThis|YouCouldMakeAReligionOutOfThis]] // Reply was at 1:41 pm, Boston Time.

Hey, I'm not sure if I'm asking in the right format, but is there no way to add an image in pages anymore? I tried the method in the tutorial of adding a link but all I get is a captcha circle. Sorry again if this question is in the wrong area/format!
-
@Platypus, you mentioned that I (@Oddbeach) forgot to include a category bar. Would you please tell me where I make this mistake? Thanks :)

Edit - If it's not too much trouble, would you be able to send me a link to one of these new pages? So that I can hopefully replicate it? But if you're busy don't worry about it, I'll keep an eye out myself :)

@Platypus, in response to your reaction to my ([[User:Rogan-thumb|Rogan-thumb]]) addition to you story; I was wondering whether it would be okay if I were to continue making additions and edits, or if you would prefer me to step back? Which I will happily do so.

== Ban Tr0ll ==

@Platypus, really sorry and ashamed about my mistakes on editing your stories. I'll get right on reading the reccomendations you gave me. English is kind of my third language, but I promise it will get better. The story was so massive I didn't expect you minded if I filled up some of the blanks. If you believe my writting skills to be poor - as in, the situation I'm presenting is unappealing -, that I would also like to hear. -- [[User:AvengerOstrich|AvengerOstrich]]
+
Hey Plat, just wanted to tell ya that the user Tr0ll seems to have just redone his spam on the main page and who knows where else. That includes your talk page. I've been trying to reverse it wherever I can, but unless this person is banned, they'll likely just keep doing this nonsense.
-
@Platypus Hi, thanks for your message. I am pretty particular about grammar myself, I have tried my best but I realise that I'm not perfect. I have enjoyed reading the story on the site, but frustrated that there were so many dead links. Do you get many contributors or have you written most of this yourself?
+
Edit: Currently working on getting some of the conversations that were deleted from this page into the Archive 8 page and keeping some of the more recent stuff back on this page. I tried to just undo the troll's post, but got hit with the external link error.

@Platypus Hey! Thanks for sending me a message and linking me the appropriate tutorials. I only started contributing to stories yesterday so I was a bit fuzzy on the details on what you need to do. As for the second comment regarding ripping out other people's stories, I just wanted to apologize for that. When you edit something the note below reads "Please note that all contributions to Create Your Own Story may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors. If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly, then don't submit it here.", so I thought it was alright. Clearly I just misunderstood. Thanks for clarifying that for me. P.S, is there a way to delete a option/category after you've made it? I wanted to change to advanced linking just in case but first, I need to delete the internal links I created otherwise there'll just be an internal link that nobody can reach. Thanks in advance.  - [[User:RichterQ87|RichterQ87]] // Posted at 23:48 GMT, 25.04.2018

@Platypus Hey! I just had a grammar related question since you said you were something of a grammar Nazi and Googling for the word I'm searching for hasn't worked. What's the word for 'seeking out someone's better/good nature'? You know, like when someone is begging someone and they try to find the good part of them to guilt trip them. For some reason the word 'apply' comes to mind but that's not right. 'Apply to someone's good nature'. Nope. While not strictly grammar related, I can't think of anyone else to ask. Thanks in advance. - [[User:RichterQ87|RichterQ87]] // Posted at 02:21 GMT, 25.04.2018

Edit: I found out the word is 'appeal'. Thanks anyway.

YO PLATYPUS WASSUP! So I need to know how you made the Contents box. Also, I need to know if we can make a new system page, like All Quizzes and Challenges, or some permission to put a quiz on the main page in it's appropriate section. The story is [[Zelda Quiz]], which I have not yet finished, but need a spot to put it when I'm done. --[[User:Magikarp7297|Magikarp7297]] 03:07, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

== Problems with links ==
+
-
Hey Platypus. I'm having a problem with the links to other pages on my story '''120 Minutes Remain'''. When I'm signed in, the main Category shows me the full 66 pages that I have already completed, but when I'm signed out it only shows the first 37 pages and no others. However, when I read through the story normally, the full 66 pages are present. I know that I haven't explained this very well, but if you could visit the Category: 120 Minutes Remain while signed out, you will see what I mean. <br>

I tried to report this bug, but the page doesn't load when I do this, for whatever reason. If you could check it out yourself/ give me any tips on how to fix it, that would be much appreciated. <br>

== Moving project ==
+
-
 
+
-
Hi Platypus,
+
-
 
+
-
Would you be interested in moving the project to its own domain and server? It's become painfully clear EditThis is not capable of supporting the project's infrastructure and is hindering the continued growth of the project. I've noticed several issues which are causing problems for CYOS:
+
-
 
+
-
* The throttling is disrupting both readers and writers from fully enjoying the stories.
+
-
* Excessive abuse filters are causing administrative issues for you.
+
-
* Lack of anti-abuse tools makes it extremely inefficient to counter abuse.
+
-
* Extremely outdated MediaWiki installation which hasn't been updated in nearly 8 years.
+
-
 
+
-
We can fix all of the above problems and implement a mass undo feature, a mobile version of the website, and do much more to create a modern CYOS-type website once we move to a new domain and server. Since CYOS doesn't allow user to user emails, could you perhaps contact me at floatingspace@protonmail.com to discuss specifics? Thanks. [[User:Spider|Spider]] 21:47, 8 March 2017 (UTC)

:Ya, it's just the actual lead administrator isn't reachable and appears to have abandoned the project years ago for you to run. There's really nothing stopping the members of the community from getting up and moving their stories and content to a new website that's actually managed and has the features CYOS needs. For example, I think an actual notification system (see the Echo extension available for MediaWiki) would be helpful for writers to keep track of new story developments. There are lots of useful features available to newer versions of MediaWiki. I think also thinking of a client-side story customization tool, which would allow readers to customize the names and other parameters of stories without changing the story for everyone else. In short, there's great potential in the project, but EditThis is hindering progress. [[User:Spider|Spider]] 16:27, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

Sorry Platypus, but I will let you deal with [[User talk:John Smith]] and his new SSR pages [[You must be mistaken]] and [[Rip open the Peace Corps girl's shirt]]. I thought about adding the category to those pages and sending him a warning, but since that is your story, I thought it would be better to just let you know and decide if you wanted to just fix them or delete them, and how you wanted to warn him. Anyways, just letting you know. Feel free to stop by my story and let me know what you think if you have the time ^.^ Working hard on it, but not sure if it is good to go into the details that I am. btw, the story is [[Masochist me]]. Well, the one I am working on currently. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 08:55, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

Okay, I have asked Teejay, but, he isn't really that strong in critiquing. I have been trying to write my Masochist me, and been hung up on my training. I am enjoying writing it alot, and trying to make sure that the reader actually understand sex, as opposed to some of the stuff that ends up in the stories on here. But, I was thinking. I am wondering, should I even bother writing this? I mean, the entire story, while it will have some vanilla sex in it, and might use a little of the current material I am writing as fodder, it is not really "the story". I realize that there are many stories here that have inconsistencies, and go off on some side thing that have nothing to do with the plot, but I am wondering if there is any use in all this research and writing. It helps, slightly, to highlight the main character, show the reader what she is like, what she is experiencing, and compares and contrasts some of the differences between her and a normal, vanilla woman, so I know it isn't completely pointless. I am also having fun researching the different steps in sex, and trying to teach the reader about human sexuality, but it is not an educational story either. Can you let me know your thoughts? Is my The teacher part of the story pointless, a waste of time, etc? Will readers even care about this part, since they are probably coming to the story to read about a woman being slapped and hit, tied and bound, tortured and humiliated? I mean, to me, this feels needed, just to get the users to think about the world she is living in, and about who she is herself. But, well, I am not the other readers on this site. Am I going to far, and should stick to simple, "I moaned as the paddle fell across my ass, red welt left behind. He grabbed my hair, forcing my head up from across his knee, and held my gaze to his. "Are you going to be good now, or do you need more?" I shot him my best defiant look. "Well, in that case," with that, he stopped talking, shoved me back over his knee and brought the belt down over and over and over again. My ass was on fire, which only make me wetter, and forced me to moan and scream, cry and kick harder. God, I was about to climax from the sheer sweetness of the pain, mind wrapped in a blissful haze."

Also, is what I am writing on the teacher page any good? Is it redundant? Too long? Does it captivate, or just bore? Is the writing style okay? --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 07:44, 31 March 2017 (UTC)

Well, finished changing the ages in Hot & Horny on the Jessica path. All her pages should show her as 21 now. I was going to start the Miranda path, and I changed a few of the ages, but not up for reading them, and stopped making the changes. Some of the story lines just sound too much like the 6 year old that it originally was, and I find it creepy. Guess I will let you or someone else change her stuff. Sadly, the Josh stuff with Jessica was okay, but I didn't like the part where she goes into her parents bedroom. Not really something I am interested in, not with the tone and way the writer made it. I sort of lost it when I saw the "I'm about to pop an egg". Stopped reading and just edited the age only. I mean, I have seen stupid lines, but really? wtf is that? Wish the writers could at least try to "imagine" what a real woman might say... I mean, "Cum inside my womb and impregnate me" is bad enough, but really, "I'm about to pop an egg" I think may be the single, stupidest thing I have ever heard. I think it may have done permanent brain damage... I already feel stupider for having read it... --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 05:23, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

== Simple Question ==

Hey, Platypus, I seem to be having a rather strange issue, and since you seem to get around in this site, figured I would ask you. I'm working on my story [[Fallout: New Vegas]], and having a small issue with the category pages. More specifically, the page counter. On the "F" page, I tried to configure it like other stories to count the number of pages in the category "FNV". When I am logged out, the counter says one page. When I am logged in, it says the actual amount (still small, just starting), but I would like to figure out why this is and how to fix it. Anyways, whenever you get a chance if you could look at it or give me an answer it would be greatly appreciated.

I'm working on the pages I left as incomplete. I don't write often and, when I do, I'm battling a horde of technical issue with my computer, so I'm forced to leave the work unfinished until I'm back in the mood to write. I am, slowly, getting the pages done, so don't worry about it too much. Besides, I'm not the first person to leave pages unfinished. There's a few stories on here like that, just minus the [in progress] part I added... I just need some time to get around to writing pages again, so it won't be an issue for long. Honest.

I looked a little further into that Miraheze wikifarm Durzan recommended; seems like they might actually allow a site like this. The most similar (to CYOS) existing site I found was Star Wars Erotica Wiki (swew.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page) (EDIT: and it's not so similar as I thought; it links to a separate CYOA style star wars erotica wiki, and I confused the two, but it's still a decent example of a markedly adult site hosted on the Miraheze platform). And a few years ago someone made a request for a Yiff wiki that was approved, so I can't see them turning down a CYOS style site (you can see the discussion about the Yiff wiki here-> meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Meta:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Archive_2#Not_Safe_for_Work_Content_Policy.3F).

I created a story titled [[A Story]] in the All Family-Friendly Stories section yesterday. There were only two stories, the other one was called pokemon 64 or something. Today, I went to All Family-friendly Stories again, and there were alot of stories, but I couldn't find mine. I ended up using the link in [[User:Alison| my user page]]. (I put a link to my story there.) What's going on?
+
Regarding the transfer of stories, the 'import' function would almost definitely be available to Bureaucrats (MediaWiki permission defaults even let Admins use it). So moving Smutty Sex Romp and Rampage would be very possible, if time consuming (as only small xml files can be imported using 'import,' around 100 pages in size). I'll make another set of Smutty Sex Romp xml files suitable for transferring this way soon. I'd be happy to help you import them if you'd like.

I know you said you weren't considering relocating right now, but maybe some of this will be useful in the future. Seems like RobKohr has no plan to fix the issues any time soon (editthis.info/wiki/User_talk:RobKohr#Not_dead).

:Oh, that makes sense. You were working on it quite a bit earlier this year though. I figured you'd stopped because of how ungodly slow the website has become, and I hadn't considered that you might have lost interest.

I really need help with the status indicator page in the tutorial. All that coding doesn't make sense. I've been trying to make a 'template' for my adventure stories and my user page, but it's so confusing. Can you help make one for me or explain to me please? Thanks.
+
:So far as my understanding goes, you'd still have plenty of ability to keep litter out on the other farm. If you create a new wiki on Miraheze, you'll have the Bureaucrat user rights. And it would be ''your'' wiki: you could write up the rules any way you wanted to, with even more power to enforce them. If you were to switch over, you would not have to worry about any loss of content moderating authority.

:And trying it out has almost no risk. It's possible that they won't allow smut on their servers, and the worst case where they decide not to host the wiki, nothing really changes. We're just stuck on editthis, with one more possibilty ticked off the list.

:Of course there is no real urgency as far as moving is concerned, but it would be great to read and edit Smutty (and any other stories that would be moved over) on a website that works.

Hey, Platypus, I figured it out. I'm gonna be known as The Guy Who Really Screwed Up, but at the same time, be the guy who's tries to fix it. (crossing my fingers I don't screw it up more, replacing the stories one by one, sadly.) I'm gonna leave a message to tell everyone to tell me the titles of PG-13 stories they have seen, as well as the Family-Friendly ones. (Was taking a stab at those, but... meh. So unless someone adopts my Mario 64 story or whatever the hell i named it within the next week, then move it to the fucking Pit please.) But anyways, I'm gonna fix my problem. MAGIKARP7297. P.S. the message will be in Idea Pitches so dont freak out.

I probably should have done a little more lurking before contributing to your story. Smutty Sex Romp is a wonderful work, and I wanted (want) to help add to it. Anyway, I might have jumped the gun a little. I made an account and added a few contributions before realizing Smutty Sex Romp was your work, and that you have perhaps higher standards than I can meet right now (knowing very little about creative writing, formatting a wiki, and whatnot). The first place I contributed was in your story, when I should've started in the sandbox.

I got a little carried away. Not that seven pages is insane, but I figured I should stop here and make sure what I've added is okay. It's easier to delete or fix seven pages than seventy (especially with the dial-up speed this site is running at). And since it's your story it's a-okay with me if you decide to delete all of my additions, no questions asked. I like what you've got going here, and I don't want to throw ants in your cereal.

:Hello again! I was looking through the '''[[:Category:Pages Requiring Attention|Pages Requiring Attention]]''', and all of them had a 'This database did not find the text of a page..." error message. I figured you'd deleted or moved them, but for whatever reason the category stuck. I blanked [[Paladin/Caladbolg18|this one]] to see if that would remove the category stamp. Of course it did, but now the page doesn't have a category (which I've heard annoys you). I think I want you to delete [[Paladin/Caladbolg18]] for me, if it's not too much trouble. Is it normal that moved/deleted pages keep categories like this, or is this something else?

Hello. I would like to have my GreatGrapes4330 account unblocked; I was only 10 years old at the time I was on that account and I am sorry for what I did. I now know to handle things differently with an administrator on a wiki and not to vandalize a profile. I could try to log on that account if it is unblocked; if not, I shall continue to use this one. Thank you for reading this. [[User:Newman2|Newman2]] 15:16, 14 March 2018 (UTC)

Alright, if you decide to say no, I understand, I screwed up a lot, and besides, you're pretty busy all the time. Anyways, so, I would be honoured if you could contribute to my story [[School Wars]]. Just fool around, I currently have only 3 pages, but let me know what you think. Also, may I perhaps just say that I would like it if I could learn how to make it so others cannot type on certain parts of my stories, like templates, or my User Page? That would help alot. Really sorry about all the time I jacked up.

Okay, so now that I have the needed permission (thanks my sysop friend!), I need to solve a minor problem: where to put the damn thing. Should it be where the link to [[Idea Pitches]] is? A new section, like the To Do List and "Got an idea for a Story?" things are? Or somewhere near the two review links? In the meantime, I'll work on it, just not mainstream. So you won't see any links to it yet, but rather you must type the whole link out. But you are here, so just erase User_Talk:Platypus and replace it with Help_Wanted and there you go.--[[User:Magikarp7297|Magikarp7297]] 11:55, 22 June 2018 (UTC)

So, I can't put [[Help Wanted]] into the [[Main Page]] without fucking up some code... and I honestly don't know how I'm doing that by adding a simple link through copy and paste. Could you add it?

It leads to a category of characters that, as a bodiless spirit, you are able to possess thrpugh an internal link.

We are all gonna be wrecked if a large group of vandals attack, dealing widespread damage to all our pages. We have over 100,000 articles, which means lots of prey to vandals. The can plague us with bad grammer, blanking our hard-worked stories, shredding user pages, and most of all, ruining things before the only active sysop comes on to discover that about 1,000 pages have been ruined. As he tries to duct tape them back together while swinging his ban-hammer at the vandals to perma-block them, we are left with everything ruined.

Also, think about how much damage they can do to us that we won't know about. They might have underage sex stories that we can't reach because they aren't listed, or maybe have ruined hundreds of stories that people don't read. Thus, it will take forever to repair the damage. If vandals attack us, we have one active sysop, a sysadmin that is difficult to contact, and a sysadmin that likes to not log in! We are sitting here as prey. '''''PREY!!''''' We ''need'' more sysops/sysadmins!

I changed the link to PkMn Red, as I'll likely use the color scheme and such in another story. Also, I found out a solution to my external linking problem: I used the redirect syntax. You can see it in action by clicking [[The Library's Secret Item Index]]. It will redirect you to the Category.

Platypus, I know you're thinking, ''What do you want, Magikarp7297?'' Well, the answer is: inspiration. As you may have found out, I write a dozen or two stories at once. My latest is called ''[[Going to School]].'' I need inspiration for where the character should go (via walking, bicycle, or the bus) and what should happen. Anything in the Family-Friendly range should work. Finding a group of bikers that are actually trolls in disguise? That can work. Riding a rainbow to find a leprechaun, leading to you fighting it? It works. Getting raped by a homosexual fiery bird? Fuck no (that there 6 year old would be scarred for life!). Cussing at a rock? Probably wouldn't work. Also, keep in mind that the main ending will be where you finally arrive at school. Or maybe if you end up skipping school (like robbing a goblin of it's gold and losing it when you get back to the house). --[[User:Magikarp7297|Magikarp7297]] 06:32, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

In regards to the blocking of DeleterACC17, I had lost the password for the account I contributed with (due to it being 3+ years old) but I really wanted to remove the pages content (quite badly honestly). I was planning on doing it manually but it seems that won’t be possible. If there was any way to delete all three of these accounts and all contributions that would be honestly quite a relief. I detached the story from the story list years ago and was gradually deleting content until for some reason I stopped.

Since this page has become rather cluttered, I've moved old discussions to the archive pages below. Feel free to leave new messages here. I'll get back to you ASAP!

What measure is an Underage

While it is of course a bit obvious that 6 or 10 is underage, what is the lower measure allowed on the site to not be considered underage?

While most countries make it illegal sexual images of women under 18, the age of consent varies, and with it the age you could write about probably does too. The most common age of consent under 18 is 16, Japan seems to allow 14, last I checked my own country was 12, which surprised me, not taking it in consideration but thought important to mention.

Either way my point is, at what age is it allowed to be written about without breaking the "no underage sexual content" rule? (I did search the archives, but could not find it. At best I found someone asking the same thing on Archive5, but it seems to have gone unanswered for them too.

- WolfDFang 12:55, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

Adding Images

Hey, I'm not sure if I'm asking in the right format, but is there no way to add an image in pages anymore? I tried the method in the tutorial of adding a link but all I get is a captcha circle. Sorry again if this question is in the wrong area/format!

Edit - If it's not too much trouble, would you be able to send me a link to one of these new pages? So that I can hopefully replicate it? But if you're busy don't worry about it, I'll keep an eye out myself :)

Ban Tr0ll

Hey Plat, just wanted to tell ya that the user Tr0ll seems to have just redone his spam on the main page and who knows where else. That includes your talk page. I've been trying to reverse it wherever I can, but unless this person is banned, they'll likely just keep doing this nonsense.

Edit: Currently working on getting some of the conversations that were deleted from this page into the Archive 8 page and keeping some of the more recent stuff back on this page. I tried to just undo the troll's post, but got hit with the external link error.

Alternative home for Smutty?

Do you have Smutty Sex Romp up on a different site, P? If not, have you considered relocating? Anedwcan 13:13, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

-

I looked a little further into that Miraheze wikifarm Durzan recommended; seems like they might actually allow a site like this. The most similar (to CYOS) existing site I found was Star Wars Erotica Wiki (swew.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page) (EDIT: and it's not so similar as I thought; it links to a separate CYOA style star wars erotica wiki, and I confused the two, but it's still a decent example of a markedly adult site hosted on the Miraheze platform). And a few years ago someone made a request for a Yiff wiki that was approved, so I can't see them turning down a CYOS style site (you can see the discussion about the Yiff wiki here-> meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Meta:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Archive_2#Not_Safe_for_Work_Content_Policy.3F).

Main NSFW content rules seem to be that

1. Everything has to be legal in Netherlands, U.S., and U.K., (so rule 1 still stands, since underage sex stories are a legally grey area at best) and

2. No pornographic images of real people (drawings and 3D renders seem to be fine)

It's possible I've missed something else important in the Content Policy, so you might want to have a look at it for yourself (meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Content_Policy). Additionally, Miraheze is free and ad-free.

Regarding the transfer of stories, the 'import' function would almost definitely be available to Bureaucrats (MediaWiki permission defaults even let Admins use it). So moving Smutty Sex Romp and Rampage would be very possible, if time consuming (as only small xml files can be imported using 'import,' around 100 pages in size). I'll make another set of Smutty Sex Romp xml files suitable for transferring this way soon. I'd be happy to help you import them if you'd like.

I know you said you weren't considering relocating right now, but maybe some of this will be useful in the future. Seems like RobKohr has no plan to fix the issues any time soon (editthis.info/wiki/User_talk:RobKohr#Not_dead).

If you don't mind my asking, why are you so hesitant to relocate?

--Pickles (Talk) 17:34, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

Oh, that makes sense. You were working on it quite a bit earlier this year though. I figured you'd stopped because of how ungodly slow the website has become, and I hadn't considered that you might have lost interest.
So far as my understanding goes, you'd still have plenty of ability to keep litter out on the other farm. If you create a new wiki on Miraheze, you'll have the Bureaucrat user rights. And it would be your wiki: you could write up the rules any way you wanted to, with even more power to enforce them. If you were to switch over, you would not have to worry about any loss of content moderating authority.
And trying it out has almost no risk. It's possible that they won't allow smut on their servers, and the worst case where they decide not to host the wiki, nothing really changes. We're just stuck on editthis, with one more possibilty ticked off the list.
Of course there is no real urgency as far as moving is concerned, but it would be great to read and edit Smutty (and any other stories that would be moved over) on a website that works. I'll stop buzzing in your ear about it, but please give Miraheze some consideration and let me know if you change your mind.

Am I doing this right?

I probably should have done a little more lurking before contributing to your story. Smutty Sex Romp is a wonderful work, and I wanted (want) to help add to it. Anyway, I might have jumped the gun a little. I made an account and added a few contributions before realizing Smutty Sex Romp was your work, and that you have perhaps higher standards than I can meet right now (knowing very little about creative writing, formatting a wiki, and whatnot). The first place I contributed was in your story, when I should've started in the sandbox.

I got a little carried away. Not that seven pages is insane, but I figured I should stop here and make sure what I've added is okay. It's easier to delete or fix seven pages than seventy (especially with the dial-up speed this site is running at). And since it's your story it's a-okay with me if you decide to delete all of my additions, no questions asked. I like what you've got going here, and I don't want to throw ants in your cereal.

Hello again! I was looking through the Pages Requiring Attention, and all of them had a 'This database did not find the text of a page..." error message. I figured you'd deleted or moved them, but for whatever reason the category stuck. I blanked this one to see if that would remove the category stamp. Of course it did, but now the page doesn't have a category (which I've heard annoys you). I think I want you to delete Paladin/Caladbolg18 for me, if it's not too much trouble. Is it normal that moved/deleted pages keep categories like this, or is this something else?
I've been wondering about those maintenance reports as well. I don't want you to go out of your way if the answer is complicated, but do they work at all? The uncategorized pages and deadend pages reports would be handy if they actually updated.
Also, do you have a category for delete requests? I'm sorry if this isn't the place to ask for them.
In any case, thanks for helping me out! --Pickles 17:39, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

P.S. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly on my last message! I'm glad I've got your seal of approval. P.P.S. Is it just me or is the site loading faster today?

Found an ad

Netconnekt's user page is an ad. I saw you deleted the dubaitours thing, so I figure this sort of account is not allowed. --Pickles 01:09, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

Reviewruk's user page is also an ad (and a fishy service if you ask me). I wonder if we're on some list of good wikis to advertise on. Interestingly enough, another company has made an account but not posted a link (yet). Lwayservice is a net dev company (akin to Netconnekt), but they didn't create any pages. --Pickles 03:41, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

Woodframe's new page User talk:Woodframe is an ad. First paragraph is so deeply introspective that I almost didn't realise it was an ad. --Pickles 18:01, 11 June 2020 (UTC)

Ingdarenth's user page is also an ad. Leonel Sohns 09:06, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

Fivesdigital's user page is also an ad. Leonel Sohns 11:33, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

Harrygood9898's user page is also an ad. Leonel Sohns 14:14, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Red Options

I'm not sure if it's been brought up before. I've been lurking for a little as an anon and wanted to start contributing to stories: some of which have red options nobody has fleshed out (in some cases for well over a year as far as I can tell). Do red options that haven't been written belong to the person, or are they free game to make into a page?

Yo. I'm thinking of coming back to this website but not fully until I have something to write about. Just curious: what happened to the edit button on the Main Page?

Thanks for the deletes

Hi Platypus. Thanks for deleting the pages I blanked. I was about to ask if you would do that. :) (I assume you looked and saw I was the only contributor.) DirtyOldMan 20:43, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

Having a problem creating an account

Hello. Obviously, I have an account on Create Your Own Story, but I want to create an account on the main editthis.info page. I keep trying, but the same thing happens every time. I put in the username and the password. I made sure that the passwords were the same. I did the captcha. But every time I go to create the account, I get an error message: "Could not open socket in ./common/recaptcha/recaptchalib.php". I don't know who else to tell about this, so here I am. If you don't know anything about this, then could you please tell someone else who does. Thank you.

Final touches to the Tutorial

Hello. I was poking around the wiki and noticed that the Tutorial needed a bit of a clean-up, so I've tried my best. Unfortunately, the page creation page is protected and there's something I think would be a very helpful addition. The addition and the edits I made are on the Tutorial Discussion, but feel free to change anything that you want. I figured you were the admin and might be able to edit the protected page. Thanks.

Adopting other Interactives from other sites

Hi. I been looking at the number of stories, both kid-friendly and XXX-rated and I been thinking of allowing other content from other sites, both dead or infinantus-haitus and allowing both the original creators and contributors from those sites to post here. I know of a couple of good adult-heavy interactives from that bully site Writing.com that would struggle but accept the transfer. Personally, this was my second-best interactive site before the wacko admin of Writing.com committed a free-user genocide and banned everyone else from entering the site, to mine crypto, I guess?

Is this website dead?

Is there any consistent updates of storys and active members?


The link I changed didn't match up with the continuation of the the story path

That's after he just agreed to only be with the daughter but the mom then rejected him in the same path so the two paths conflict?

Is contradicts this path


Could you rename some pages

Hey, I was wondering if you could rename a few pages? Specifically I was wondering if you could rename these pages:Josh._An_18-year_old,_brown-haired_football_player, Miranda._A_17-year-old_brown-haired_girl, and Chelsea._The_36_yo,_blonde-haired_volleyball-playing_mother_of_the_3_kids_above.

Specifically I'd like them to be renamed by increasing the ages of Miranda and Josh by a year and change blonde-haired to brunette.
