It seems that since the update, not all new groups seem to have story posting privileges from the get go even when I have had the level set to "users." One group was made three hours before I made this one, yet that group can allow people to submit stories, but yet the Juniper Montage group's been around for a week and yet no one can submit stories.

Until this gets resolved, you can still promote your stories, share ideas and artwork, but it'll be a while before I/we can get this issue done and over with.
