Yes, we changed the search bar to redirect to Google.

EDIT: I'm amazed that any of you could possibly prefer the old search, but if you absolutely must use the almost unusable old search function, simply hit browse. This will also allow you to use all the old browse features as well, those were never gone.

Today is an author being featured for their second time (which means an abbreviated interview - most answers haven't changed). Thanqol's latest work is a stellar example of why I started the Vault in the first place; in the unlikely event you haven't read it already, make some time to do so.

As you've no doubt noticed if you're logged in, you'll have a message at the top of the screen saying you need to verify your email. As part of our server move we've had to update a lot of our email practices, and marking all emails as unverified was a necessary part of that process. Just click the link and you'll be able to verify your email.

It has come to our attention that there is some confusion regarding the "OTHER" and "OC" character tags for stories.

This is perfectly understandable, as they are the same color. I myself sometimes catch myself trying to eat stop signs for this very reason, because they're the same color as red apples.

I've upped the number of new stories up there to 7 and updated stories to 3. I've also changed the half life of their "heat" value to 4 days instead of 14 so they should cycle much faster.

We'll see how this works out.

Thanks!

Howdy ho, neighborino! Just diddly-dropping by to let you know that I just gave a FAQ a pretty significant update. I added a couple of questions to it, corrected some outdated information (most notably the character tag limit), as well as a lot of miscellaneous corrections. I also completely rewrote both the Story Submission Rules and the Comment Rules. No rules have changed, simply clarified.

Give it a gander, goosies!

Since this issue has suddenly reared it's head pretty violently in the last couple of days I thought I'd address it because there seems to be a lot of confusion going on.

Typically, we do NOT accept stories that are reposts or rewrites of existing ones. The reason should be obvious, it's not fair to be given prime position on the frontpage and featured opportunies again when the story is the same (a rewrite is still the same story).
