I want to try somthing, I'll need a hand from you guys. · 12:46pm Oct 21st, 2015
So, the featured box. It's basically mythical to people here, we know how it works, but no one feels it realy works that way.
I want to see if it's possible for an older story to hit the featured box, and not just new uploads. So if you dont mind, sometime today I'm putting up a new chapter. If you haven't liked The Queen is Dead yet like it then, also comment something, anything. Lets give a recent upload a spike of comments and likes and see if that's realy all it takes to get into the feature box, or it you realy do have to have something freshly "published".
I can save you all this trouble by telling you that my 2 or 3 years old story get featured each time a post a chapter.

No its just when you got featured it, and you post new chapter it automatically bumped into feature box

Getting featured requires chapter reads and new upvotes to increase the 'hotness' score.
3486393 Ah I thought comment number was a factor in that... Hmm.
What is this box you speakth of O' wise changeling bug thingy.
The others are correct. Older stories can get featured. And if it has been featured before, it seems like you automatically get back on there when you update. At least it has been the case for "The Iron Horse."
3487699 Wait... you're following me? I'm honored! Or is there a public way to brows all journals?
3487721 Actually, it's because "The Queen is Dead" is on my list of fics to read. But, then again, you've been around since the beginning (literally, you're the first to comment on "The Iron Horse"), so what the hay, one good follow deserves another!
3488137 Ah, well then thankyou² Hope you enjoy it even √2 % as much as I love The Iron Horse!
