i miss the friends, i miss the fandom, i miss when i was just a little less cynical, i miss learning lessons about how to be a better person from working here, i miss writing fic and i wish i wasn't so sensitive to rejection so i would have continued. i still have ideas for that one piece thing i was writing
sorry to anyone who i ever made feel like shit or anything like that, not that too many people even remember who i was. if you're wondering who i am i'm Poultron, a real old mod who aint on here no more
I'm gonna randomly go through old posts/comments/blogs and probably prune some stuff. I've grown and changed a lot as a person and frankly readin' some of my old posts makes me go "man that person sure does stink!!" Sorry to anyone I was ever rude to. This place taught me a lot about how to be kinder and articulate myself better when dealing with administrative issues. Sometimes I miss it! If
I'm still kind of confused how the old Favorites functionality - that is, indicating stories you simply really, really, like - has been moved to user pages, and the old Tracking functionality has sort of taken over the Favorites list.
I just really, really, really hope that Knighty doesn't remove the on-update emails like that last news post implies might happen.
2503448 Because almost all of our users both Favorited and Tracked stories; there was almost nobody who used them separately, and when they did it was sparingly.
The next big update should alleviate some concerns anyway....
Personally, I'd still prefer if they were seperate. There's plenty of stories I would have only tracked to see how they went instead of faving right away just to keep up with them.
2505185 You're in the vast minority unfortunately. They were really just different labels for the same thing anyway, and it more closely matches just about every other website with favorites.
And like I said, the upcoming major update will probably make you very happy...
2505188 I admit to being one of those people whose Favorites list was a subset of their Tracking list, but that's because I used Tracking to denote "story I liked; would read again". My old Favorites list, on the other hand, was for the stories that I loved and easily were at the top of my list of recommended fics.
Given the vague hints, it sounds like the upcoming major update is one to look forward to!
2566275 I now find myself wondering that. I suddenly seem to have stopped getting emails, as I came back to this site to find 6 unread chapters I hadn't known about. Anyone know how to ensure we get email updates about stories we like?
no :B

Always, Poultron. Always.
It's a shame your avatar isn't cute, then.
Also tracking? Wazzat?

Man, I remember when the "Recommended Stories" bar was still a thing, a time when everything was green and curved.
Where have the times gone, Poultron?

Who remembers when we could see number of words read?
Things have started slipping through the cracks lately
This is one of them

Can we still get emails about when stories update? Or do you not do that anymore, because that was very helpful.
