And this is why I have 3rd party scraper software... · 8:09am Sep 25th, 2020
Fewer and fewer stories are being updated\completed since 2016-2018 seems to be the cutoff point where many good and long running stories seemed to stop. Less than 1/4 of the 1000+ storied collection on Calibre gets an update.
There's constant discrepencies like going through the links should take me to someone, but leads elsewhere
For example, MadMaxTheBlack was a fav in the porn scene for a while before dropping off the earth, and I found him again under an alt that's been dead since 2018.

Others, the author still exists, but the story is gone. Like Silver Octave exists, but a little comedy fic they did a long time ago doesn't exist anymore.
There's several times the author just changes their names... I didn't know this was a site feature. Though several stories do use pre-existing names.
At least this confirms I'm not suffering from dementia.
This is why you have to buy some hard drives and make it a habit of saving stuff.
