So I was looking at my old Halloween tales and found out there was a problem in tale nineteen of this collection:

31 hideous Halloween tales (part two) (Tales 12-31)

The sentence reads something like this: “But Soren didn’t know if anything bothered to write anything…”

So I went back to change it to “anybody” but it STILL says “anything”. I’m not sure why it’s doing that. A similar thing happened to the first story in my “Heaven and Hell is pretty cringe, actually” series.
There’s a little bit of Halloween in all of us…

Hi, I would like to address this problem I've had.

When I go to site preferences then try to change the background it says "Your preferences could not be saved." and it does this with anything you put there so for the past months my background has just been the classic YWS blue.

Any suggestions?

Thanks, Every.

Problem: I wrote a blog post and the published message showed up when I hit publish but the blog post wasn’t anywhere on my blog and didn’t show up on the people tab either.

Not sure why but since the php-related downtime, I'm no longer on Team Tortoise, and the streak flame says the wrong number, even if the Front Page of my User Control Panel shows an unbroken 330+ long Review Streak.

EDIT: I know why. Because on Oct 2 I wrote a review for a story that was deleted later.

@Nate I noticed that the on air portion at the bottom of the page where it shows how many users have logged on today still says YWS! Thought I’d let you know :)

I got this message from my brother...

(Ignore the KPDH background, lol... I'm obsessed.)

I also temporarily forgot my password and asked for an email to reset it, and got nothing. (Though fortunately, I remembered my password after a while!

So there might be an issue with the emails?

There's definitely YWS in multiple places - if @Nate wants a list, we could compile one, but only if he asks!

@Snoink - I went poking about to see if I could find anything, and I think Nate fixed the inactive issue for Grif. Not sure if the email end of things is a system issue or not. If you haven't already checked what he updated it to (and/or Nate hasn't already talked to you!), I can?

Fixing mail now -- just issues with changing the domain name.

Regarding YWS in various places around the site, we'll start a list in about a week. I'm aware of a lot of them, but it'll take a while because those I need to change by hand. With Young Writers Society and the domain name, I did just a simple search and replace. But with YWS, so many of the sites internal codes use yws as a prefix that if I did a search and replace, it'd break everything.

logging in is taking about 10 seconds every time, which i'm fairly certain was not before.

Lol, @Meshugenah, I'm so afraid of breaking WF right now. XD The pressure!

Also, thanks Nate! I got an email!

One more nitpicky thing...

I, who forgot my password temporarily in a moment of brain fog, got this...

So everything YWS has to be changed!

Anyway, this is all little stuff. Thanks for dealing with the big stuff. :)

Not sure if this is a 'site bug', but it still says YWS =)

The day, which was one of the first of spring, cheered even me by the loveliness of its sunshine and the balminess of the air. I felt emotions of gentleness and pleasure, that had long appeared dead, revive within me. Half surprised by the novelty of these sensations, I allowed myself to be borne away by them, and forgetting my solitude and deformity, dared to be happy.
