-	Hey, I got your message about category but frankly I couldn't find any edited page without category. Can you fix it for me please. I've read everything so it should be okay?
-	----
-	Hi there, I wanted to ask you something about the main page. Well... namely, about that some of the special sections, like, for instance, the review section (not just that, but... mostly that), look a little wonky.<br> It's not really a big deal, but I started editing the main page mindlessly before realizing I probably should have asked someone first. ^_^;; Anyway... you might notice that the main page's history had a change undone, and that was me. Since you seem to be the person to ask: what should I do, or not do? You might even have some good ideas for how it should look.<br>-[[User:Ultrabookworm|Ultrabookworm]]
-	Okay, awesome, that's good to know. I'm still a noob at more advanced stuff as well, so if it's a problem with displaying differently universally I won't bother with it, especially since it's someone else's baby. I might discuss with my boyfriend about it since he has an internship webmastering and deals with that issue but topic's probably closed. Thanks for getting back with me! Maybe I'll look on other kinds of displays to see how it looks.<br>	+	== What measure is an Underage ==

-	Hi, thanks for the story, "Rampage", I liked it very much! Whether it will complement and how soon?	+
-	Sorry for my bad english.	+

-	-[[User:Uman|Uman]]- on 4/16/14	+
-	Hello all, I just want to say thank you all for your contributions (especially Platypus), and I was wondering if I could bring your attention to [[The Humiliation of Katie]], my story which currently only has a few people adding to it. As such I am looking to raise attention to it to get more writers involved (Warning 18+ material).	+	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?
-	----	+
-	Akibahara here.	+
-	My humblest apologies for the improper use of grammar errors I've made. However, I'm still quite interested in contributing to the story as a whole. May we discuss the errors involved and see how I can possibly fix them? - [[User:Akibahara|Akibahara]] 10:01am 04th April, 2014.	+	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.
-	Hello, I'm interested in contributing to Smutty Sex Romp (excellent fic, btw), however, it's quite vast. Do you believe it's possible to set up a network of experienced writers in order to complete largely unedited parts of the story? [[User:Akibahara|Akibahara]] 08:38pm 03rd April, 2014.	+
-	----	+
-	Hi, me again. The picture I have written you about earlier is out and posted. Okay if I post a link in the description of the story whic had inspired it? - [[User:Wassersaeufer|Wassersaeufer]] 23:57 21st March 2014 (UTC)	+
-	----	+
-	Hello. First of all, I want to thank you for all the work you put in this page, making it more enjoyable for all of us. Second, I want to know something. Namely if it is okay, if an artist would post a link to this page, to be more precise to the story [[Hot and Horny]]. Thing is, I have paid the artist to paint a scene from the story and would ask him to include a link to the story in the description when he posts it on "Hentai Foundry". Would that be okay with you? - [[User:Wassersaeufer|Wassersaeufer]] 12:19 19th March 2014 (UTC)	+
-	----	+
-	Hello, its me again. Thank you to Dirty Me for his help in solving my Bolded text issue. Anyway, I was wondering if I have to put a disclaimers note in my story [[Percy Jackson God Of All]], and if it is okay to put some funny dialogue from an anonymous writer in there? For example see [[Percy Jackson God Of All: I want to be a Mortal]]	+

-	Thanks for the Heads up, im still new to all this but want to participate, cheers for correcting me.	+	Either way my point is, at what age is it allowed to be written about without breaking the "no underage sexual content" rule?

-	The story The World's End is mine. I started it back in 2008/2007. I should have rights to edit the pages as I see fit. Someone that took the time to write one page does not have control over everything. Please let me have creative license over my work. It is not my intention to rip apart others contributions, but sometimes I need to clean things up and add some things to the story.  Anyways, I don't think anyone else has contributed to my story for about three years, I don't think they will be mad if I change a few sentences or delete something so it makes more sense.	+	== Adding Images ==
-	-DrRichardKimbal	+	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 :)

-	----	+	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.
-	Could you delete the following page in my story.  [[Walk over to the fully-grown female child and explain to the father that you intend no harm, you just want her as your mate]]	+
-	I changed the title, edited the page, and tried to move it to the new location, only to find that someone had written in it already.  Thanks.	+	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.

-	Hey, I messaged you once before, and was now curious about something. Is there a way to find out when new pages within your story are added? I ask this because I come on weekly, and hate having to travel through every option to see if there is anything new. I was also wondering if you had your own website somewhere, and if  you did, could you share it? Thank you.	+

-	I do admit that I am distracted at times, often writing an addition to your things, as well as on another site trying a 'choose your own adventure' style thing with the comments. I will take into consideration your advice, and re-edit what I have put up to keep it up to your standard. I hope that you do find my writing up to standard, as part of my dream is to become a writer, and this is good experience for me to learn.	+

-	== alternative site? ==	+
-		+
-	Hi,	+
-		+
-	These last months the site has been unbearably slow making it practically unusable, and despite repeated contacts the site admin Rob Kohr does not seem interested in acknowledging that his quick fixes aren't real solutions. Since I see no indication on his part a comprehensive fix restoring this site to normal responsiveness is forthcoming any time soon, I'd like to ask you if you know of any other free wiki site with a no-censorship policy, Platypus?

-		+
-	== Views ==	+
-		+
-	Really quick question, I can't see the amount of views I am getting per page anymore. Is this the same for everybody or did I change a setting?	+

-	Hello! Just curious about why you deleted my page. - [[User:FrozenFlamingFire|FFF]]	+
-		+
-	In regards to your last comment on my talk page, I just wanted to say that I respect that rampage is your story, and if you don't want me posting there, then just say the word; I will respect that.	+
-		+
-	I put up a couple of stories last night, one of which I found in a folder which I thought I had posted a long time ago, the other of which I wrote in a bit of a hurry. For that reason, I must have forgotten to make sure that they conformed to your preferred punctuation style, and I apologize for that.	+
-		+
-	In regard to your last comment on my talk page, allow me to say, "Thank you". You said everything I had hoped you would say, and I feel encouraged to keep writing, and to follow http://editthis.info/create_your_own_adventure/Punctuation_with_dialogue.	+
-		+
-	My academic background is in descriptive grammar, and I have since moved to work with editing, which is of course prescriptive, but I never work with fiction writing, so I haven't had cause to study use of punctuation in quotations before.	+

-	Sorry for the way i've been acting, i'm not trying to get banned. Sometimes I don't always think before I post due to my Aspberger's Syndrome, I was out of line with what I said before and I regret it.  I appreciate you showing what I did wrong with my last entry, that really helped me.  So i'm going to take your advice and try and start my own story, i'll consider myself lucky if I turn out to be even half as good of a writer as you are, i'll try not to make my grammar look too sloppy. I actually did well in my English classes in college, but I guess it's not always so easy to adapt your skills at writing papers into writing stories on sites like this.	+

-	Hi This is Pedobear12	+
-	Thank you for showing me how to add the category into the story, I was trying to do that, but gave up.  turns out i was almost there  :)	+
-	Anyway I was wondering if you could tell me how to make different lines in a single story merge.	+
-	In other words if one decision was made, how do I make the lines merge with a bit down the line decisions of a different set.	+
-	What I am getting at is that if you choose a path it may lead to being captured or death.	+
-	if you choose the other path one of the decisions in that path could have the same result.	+
-	So instead of retyping it, I want to know how to direct the page to that same ending, especially if I think that ending was writen well?	+
-	----------------------------------------------------------	+
-	Hey this is Gaydude, I'm new with all these things, I have the basics like making a page and stuff down. Don't know a thing about adding the category thingy and also about merging parts of the story.	+
-		+
-	== Incomplete pages /options/status bar/category from the previous page. ==	+
-		+
-	Hey thanks for the feedback. I am fairly new to this site and don't yet know how to make new pages, add choices or add category bar. I don't mean to leave the story on a limb, it's just I don't know how to add options and selections. Could you message me and explain these to me if it's not too much trouble.	+

-	I'm cool with you editing and deleting my posts, it shows that you care about the quality of the story. I'd like to apologize for any annoyance I may have caused. Also, about the thing with who was in the car, I assumed that the choices being made were more what the person reading would want to happen, not what the actual character in the story was making.

-	Addition -	+
-	Platypus, question. I want to create a page in my story but not linked to my story where I can keep a log of where my links are and where they are broken.	+
-	I can probably do it on my PC, but I am editing from both home and work, so feel it would be easier if I can just have a link log or something where I keep track of my forks without having to go through it multiple times.	+
-		+
-	Is this acceptable to do? I just want to make sure.	+
-		+
-	--[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 13:57, 21 February 2014 (UTC)	+
-		+
-	So, just checking. Do I seem to be doing fine right now? I know I occasionally post a long story in a link, then have no additional options and change the stuff in that link. I am just laying in the base for the branch I am working on, and will remove/add/edit/modify everything as I progress. You can see my most recent path if you are worried about that, so you can see how I work on it and bring it to the final stage. Just wanted to mention that, since I am still doing alot of work on it. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 10:37, 3 March 2014 (UTC)	+
-		+
-	Hmm, think I have a problem. I tried to create a template so I could have a hide text thing, and think I did something wrong, because I keep getting <nowiki>Template loop detected: Template:Hidden begin Template loop detected: Template:Hidden begin Template loop detected: Template:Hidden end</nowiki>. Any idea what I am doing wrong? I tried it from the standard wikipedia, but, it doesn't seem to be working D: --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 09:20, 7 March 2014 (UTC)	+
-		+
-	Actually, what I am trying to do is this (Which you can see is a problem if you check the [[Dirty Me/Storyboard]]:	+
-		+
-	Opening [show]	+
-	*Nothing seen here	+
-		+
-	Click the show,	+
-		+
-	Opening [hide]	+
-	*path 1 [show]	+
-	*path 2 [show]	+
-	*path 3 [show]	+
-		+
-	Then, I can create the page paths, so, for example, someone is reading through, then gets to a certain point and needs to leave, they can just go to the Storyboard, look up the path they see, and go directly to it. It seems nicer than the category page, so you can see what choices lead to what paths. I guess I saw Uman's, and liked it, but wanted to make the entire story path so you could just look up options quickly and decide where you want to go. But right now, my opening, with all paths shown until the end of it, is over 900 lines, which won't really be nice for anyone to use. Instead, it is just a mess D: --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 13:05, 7 March 2014 (UTC)	+

-	If we can figure it out, it would be nice, but no worries. Sorry, I have created a few pages for you to delete, since it isn't really worth it to try without being able to hide.	+
-	The pages I guess that I wasted trying this, and that aren't needed are:	+
-	[[Template:Dirty Me/hidden begin]], [[Template:Hidden begin]], [[Template:Hidden end]], and think I accidentally created [[Template:Documentation]]. If we can't really find a way to do it, I think my storyboard idea is useless, but guess we can wait for a little to see if someone knows how to before deleting it. Sorry for the mess/headache D: --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 13:37, 7 March 2014 (UTC)	+

-	Thanks for deleting the pages, and sorry for the mess. Also, thanks for fixing the +annabeth thing. I didn't notice I deleted the wrong part. I saw it had some warning thing about resources or whatever, so I was trying to delete some of the PAGESINCAT things I was using. It helps for finding stories that don't have much, but guess it gives some problems or whatever. I will just use it for the currently active stories now. Now to see what else I want to do. Maybe I will look at Uman's thing and try that for my storyboard. idk, we will see xD --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 16:12, 7 March 2014 (UTC)	+

-	Platypus, sorry, I thought I had fixed Blazetempest's issues a bit more. I wasn't sure what to do with it, and it was a bit poorly written, but I thought I at least made it more sensible. It may be my fault, since I was unsure if the story was written from an "I" or "You" point, so I left his pronoun style the same, and just adjusted some of the other grammatical mistakes. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 16:29, 8 March 2014 (UTC)	+

-	Platypus, hope you don't mind, I used your <nowiki>{{warn1}}</nowiki> template with someone who was forgetting to put categories. Figured it would help you out a little, to save you the headache. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 06:16, 12 March 2014 (UTC)	+

-	Well, looks like no one has been able to find a way to create a collapsible table. I may blank it soon if we can't. Seems too awkward trying to use it without being able to do this.	+
-	I do have another question though. Do you know how to get <nowiki>{{NUMBEROFVIEWS}}</nowiki> to work only for a specific page, not for the entire wiki? I noticed people saying on one of the things before that it used to show it, but it was removed. Is there a way to do this only for a single page? Because I can get it to work for all the pages in here, but not for 1 only. Just wondering. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 08:59, 18 March 2014 (UTC)	+	Do you have Smutty Sex Romp up on a different site, P? If not, have you considered relocating? [[User:Anedwcan|Anedwcan]] 13:13, 4 May 2020 (UTC)
-	I added a little to the <nowiki>{{warn1}}</nowiki> template. Thought it might be good to give them the link to what they did wrong. Just wanted to let you know so you could take a look and revert if you don't like the addition. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 02:22, 19 March 2014 (UTC)	+	-
-	I am wondering. I have been looking around this wiki, other wikis, features, pages, etc, and have noticed that overall, our front page is rather ugly, that there are additional tools that may be useful (For example, one had a "forum" area where things could be reported, or just discussions or whatever), and that overall it seems like some things need to be rethought. I don't really have any answers for these issues, but I was wondering if you have had any thoughts about all this. I am willing to help try to come up with some better things like the Copyright notice, maybe try to help a little with the grammar section, and the forums idea, but when it comes to trying to think of how to clean up the home page, or make some other useful pages, I have no idea where to even start. Just a little overwhelming I guess. Do you have any ideas for any of this? Basically, it just seems that it could be organized better than we currently have, and look better. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 09:16, 19 March 2014 (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).
-	Sorry for creating more work for you platy. But, I started some pages, then figured out a better way to organize them. Is it possible for you to delete: [[Prank War/Jennifer-Super Glue/Ashley-Hot Sauce‎]] and [[Prank War/Jennifer-Super Glue‎]]? Sorry for the added work D: --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 09:49, 20 March 2014 (UTC)	+	Main NSFW content rules seem to be that
-	Quick note, you might want to check [[User talk:Gunior]]. Just letting you know. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 07:47, 22 March 2014 (UTC)	+	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
-	Well, think I have some more organizing done. I moved a few things to the pit and have been going through the adult stories and adding them to the <nowiki>[[Category:Adult Stories]]</nowiki> category. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 14:35, 24 March 2014 (UTC)	+	2. No pornographic images of real people (drawings and 3D renders seem to be fine)
-	o.O lol, did you find the pic for the template, or upload yourself? I thought you couldn't upload anymore? Sorry, just kept giving me the broken pic, and was annoying me xD --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 15:59, 27 March 2014 (UTC)	+	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.
-	Got it, thanks. Now I can update them. Of course, I have found most, except for a few that don't seem to make it far, normally update their page after they get a warning xD But, that can help me help you out ^.^ --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 18:26, 28 March 2014 (UTC)	+	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.
-	For the Hitchhikers Guide thing: Yeah, I checked the date, but thought that when the ability to upload images was removed that maybe the images also were removed. After you fixed it, I figured out what was wrong. Actually, I had this site bookmarked as Choose your own adventure. I had visited this site a while ago, before it was changed, because the first time I clicked the link, it failed. Sadly, I just never did anything with it. Don't even know if I created an account or anything. lol, I only joined recently because I was looking through old bookmarks, and clicked on it wondering what it was xD --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 18:34, 28 March 2014 (UTC)	+	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).
-	Just wanted to let you know, I have blanked a few pages because, when I went through everything they created, I found out, they basically created...well...no story, just options with no content. Just wanted to give you a heads up so you could look at the ones I blanked to see if you really want them removed. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 07:22, 5 April 2014 (UTC)	+	If you don't mind my asking, why are you so hesitant to relocate?
-	lol @ (Move log); 05:27 . . Platypus (Talk | contribs) Louis moved to Lois (Learn to spell!). You should look at the history. It is...a mess >.> --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 02:06, 8 April 2014 (UTC)	+	--[[User:Pickles|Pickles]] ([[User talk:Pickles|Talk]]) 17:34, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
-	And, think I am finished with the Adult Stories section. All stories have been gone through, and their category pages marked as Adult Stories. Many of the low page count, long time without editing, have been moved to the pit. Others which are not getting much attention, have had the note added that they are on the pit watchlist, so we can see if they are added to before the 1 year point. I thought this would make it easier. I will still do a few other things around the site, and once I am up for writing more, add more to my stories. Just wanted to let you know. Oh, and I blanked a couple more things. You can check to see if they deserve deletion, or if you would prefer restoring them. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 06:28, 8 April 2014 (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.
-	Sorry, I know, I am giving you lots of blanked pages. I have just been blanking the ones that only have a single page, or, if the story has more than one page, it has no real story, like the one that had 6 pages of "Are you this or this". I am refraining from blanking the ones that have at least two pages, and some basic story premises. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 15:46, 12 April 2014 (UTC)	+	: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.
-	Okay, so, one thing I have gotten annoyed with is the image insert and 20 minutes. I understand why it was done, but I soooooo want to try to show the readers the clothes I am thinking of when I write these. Take for example this one: [[Dirty Me/Try to seduce him]]. I linked the skirt to the following page: [[Dirty Me/BUNNY NOO Circle skirt]]. Is there any way I can take that image, then insert it back into the article so that it shows the skirt, instead of the user needing to click the link? Sorry, not good at templates or whatever, but basically I want the text on the left, and the skirt on the right. Just wondering if I can do that as a template or whatever (You know, change the skirt pic to a template or whatever, similar to how the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy story did)? --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 12:38, 14 April 2014 (UTC)	+	: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.
-	So, I could technically do it by creating a pic on a different template each time, then single use the template, correct? Does that seem overly...spammy? Don't want to do that, but it would be nice to liven it up. No worries, they would be pics that are not overly "adult" (No hardcore, although I am wondering if there would be a limit for see through type outfits, I can think where it would be good to show, but, I feel strange putting anything that shows more than you can see out and about on a website), just something to liven it up. And thanks, it is one of the skirts I own. lol, I have alot of Asian fashion since I live in Taiwan. No, not my legs, but I do own the skirt.	+	: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.
-	Okay, well, it works. However, I think I need to work on how to get these boxes to show up in the right area, and also see if I can figure out how to get it to show smaller... Eh, at least I learned something. You can check it at: [[Dirty Me/Try to seduce him]]. However, now I created another page for you to delete: [[Dirty Me/BUNNY NOO Circle skirt]], and not sure if you need to delete the page I redirected it from: [[BUNNY NOO Circle skirt]] --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 13:30, 14 April 2014 (UTC)	+	:--[[User:Pickles|Pickles]] ([[User talk:Pickles|Talk]]) 02:22, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
-	Ok, now this is just ticking me off... When I have tried to put a pic in a new template, I insert the link, create my category, and only after I am sure my link is done do I submit. However, now (which didn't happen yesterday or the day before), it is popping up with a captcha box. So, I fill in the captcha box, and then get the message that I cannot insert an external link more than once per 20 minutes, effectively preventing me to insert a photo at all... Any idea why I suddenly have the captcha box popping up? It is preventing it completely D: Maybe since I have created a new link, the site has decided to verify me every time now? This is annoying... --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 07:23, 16 April 2014 (UTC)	+	== Am I doing this right? ==
-	Yeah, and I think I made a mistake. I notice now when I try to put up a new pic template, it says linking has been disabled... I wrote a bug report, and explained what I was doing, why, and asked if it was my fault. You can see the bug report here: constantsun.fogbugz.com/default.asp?192_to7lkkbt5dh5s27o (You will need to add the https, :, and // yourself). Hopefully I can get a response. And hopefully Rob won't ban me if it was halted completely because of me D: btw, I did want to mention, I am now putting up the HTML for my pages so people can create their own copy to read through outside of edditthis. It is in hidden comments, but the instructions are on the [[Dirty Me/Info]] page. Basically, the only thing is to copy the html correctly, and make sure the links are correctly named. I thought of the idea when I noticed someone mention something on one of the feature request pages about making the stories downloadable. Not sure how quickly I will have it for everything though, and I may change it, trying to make it look better as I go, but then people can download my stories in a nice format if they can follow the instructions. Now I hope people don't accidentally wipe my pages trying to copy the html code... --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 12:27, 16 April 2014 (UTC)	+	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.
-	Just to let you know, before you banned BigTR, he put the page [[A Very Horny Day]] back up after you had deleted it, but before you banned him. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 08:47, 17 April 2014 (UTC)	+	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.
-	Okay, I tried it out. I put in a pic that I think the male audience will enjoy. I guess you see what you think of it at [[Dirty Me/Take your baby doll blouse off completely]] and let me know what you think. And no, that isn't me xD I learned my lesson about real pics and the internet a while ago -.- --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 06:50, 18 April 2014 (UTC)	+	--[[User:Pickles|Pickles]] 06:00, 11 May 2020 (UTC)
-	Sadly, I learned that the hard way...I ended up on one of those revenge porn sites after I sent someone I was talking to online some pics of me...About three years ago I guess. The good part is, it was one of those sites the FBI ended up taking down (Not for me, but because some politicians daughter or something ended up on there). Ended up closing down my Facebook because of that. I still don't have a Facebook to this day, I just use my husbands. But...who knows where else my pic has ended up. <nowiki>*shrug*</nowiki>, I learned too many lessons the hard way D: However, I did learn, and because of everything, I am who I am now, and I am happy, so, I am grateful. The experiences made me who I am today ^.^ Hopefully though the pics in the different pages are helping to give a better impression of what I am thinking about when I am writing. Now I just need to figure out how to better format everything so it looks better, instead of random images around -.- --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 12:16, 18 April 2014 (UTC)	+	: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?
-	Welcome back. I was getting a little worried about you. Thought maybe you got tired of the site and left :o --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 15:55, 22 April 2014 (UTC)	+	:I've been wondering about those [[Special:SpecialPages|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 [[Special:UncategorizedPages|uncategorized pages]] and [[Special:DeadendPages|deadend pages]] reports would be handy if they actually updated.
-	I know the feeling. I guess I had a severe case of sinusitis, and my ears got infected too, so the doctor was saying if the medicine he gave me didn't fix it, he would have to drain them... Fortunately, the medicine was able to help... --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 16:10, 22 April 2014 (UTC)	+	:Also, do you have a category for delete requests? I'm sorry if this isn't the place to ask for them.
-	So, do you think the photos are really any help to set the mood? --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 12:52, 24 April 2014 (UTC)	+	:In any case, thanks for helping me out! --[[User:Pickles|Pickles]] 17:39, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
-	To be honest, at first, it was just suppose to be an outfit or two, but rereading my discussion between me and Blackadder38, I thought about how men are more visual, and that it might help liven up the story more, especially after you mentioned how these are adult stories. However, I have been trying to keep it softcore still, and am not interested in hardcore. But, I have been thinking that, to be completely honest, I am not sure if I like the pictures in my stories like this. I may just remove them. I will need to think about it. That is why I was wondering if they seemed to be a good addition, but if they don't help the scene out, then I don't really want to keep them around. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 14:01, 24 April 2014 (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?
-	Just a note, you might want to check [[Special:Contributions/SergeantC]], especially the pages like [[The Arizona Buzzsaw Butchery]], since it seems to turn the story into gore. I haven't seen any gore before this, so it seems like it might be inappropriate for the story. I guess I will let you judge this. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime|Dirty Me]] 09:19, 25 April 2014 (UTC)	+	== Found an ad ==

I understand why it is inappropriate, but, I think it is more an act of (insert reference to lights and no one being home here), rather than malicious intent.

I was poking around the wiki and noticed that the Tutorial needed a bit of a clean-up, so I've tried my best.

-	<b>- Hi all -</b>	+
-	Do we have a page where all the (active/online) users are listed? I think that it'll be a lot easier if we know who's still doing stuff and try to build a community-like atmosphere here.	+
-	I have an idea of attempting to unite all the abandoned stories from the pit into one huge crossover story, creating a new category (possibly entitled, "The Abandoned Story"). I was wondering if there's any objection to that idea?	+
-	As for the idea update, I am going along the lines towards what you told me, which was similarly what I had planned originally, anyway.	+	- [[User:TheGreenRaider|TheGreenRaider]] 13:47, 26, Dec 2022(UTC)
-	I was thinking that since each category serves for a different audience, the number of alternate stories would surmount to the same number of categories. In essence, family-friendly for family-friendly, adult for adult, and so on. But since this is an abandoned stories project, do you mind if I edit the stories within the Pit before posting a title on their appropriate category?	+
-	Also, it's ''*abandoned'', sir. :P --[[User:Completionist|Completionist]] 22:33, 14 April 2014 (UTC)	+
-	Thanks. Their disappearances probably mean that whoever enters the Pit can never come out. With that in mind, I'll be diving right in.	+	== Adopting other Interactives from other sites ==
-	On to the flow of things: I've realized that many of these stories have various writing styles and voices. My question now is the limit on how far I can edit these stories without interrupting any status quo/ rules you've laid out? Or is the Pit simply open to any kind of editing no matter how harsh? I mean, they are pretty much abandoned (this is only referring to voice and style, not the context itself).	+
-	--[[User:Completionist|Completionist]] 23:27, 14 April 2014 (UTC)	+
-	Ah, that's a good point. I was just worried that someone might have been furious if I stitch them all up. Thanks for the clarification. With that matter resolved, it's time to begin. --[[User:Completionist|Completionist]] 02:11, 15 April 2014 (UTC)	+	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?
-	Quick question: Once I manage to completely integrate the stories into my own (that is, once they are fully branched out and linked as one, etc.), should I remove the stories from the Pit page, or should I just keep them there?

-	Quick proposal to changing the main page: to move the Introduction section next to the to-do list and post it under a similar set-up (colorful box) so new users do not overlook the Tutorial, which many seem to do. Again, just a suggestion :)--[[User:Completionist|Completionist]] 14:27, 19 April 2014 (UTC)	+	== Is this website dead? ==

-	Do you mind if I try reorganizing (not adding colorful boxes here) the Main Page?

I'm assuming we only have some limit to javascript coding? Just wondering.

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.

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.

--Pickles (Talk) 02:22, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

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.

--Pickles 06:00, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

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?

Fredhot16

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?

-October, 15, 2021, 02:09.

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?

- TheGreenRaider 14:27, 26, Dec 2022(UTC)

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

• Go find Jenny to apologize.

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?

• Agree to Jenny's terms.

Is contradicts this path

• Deny that you were looking at Jenny's cleavage.

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.
