I love sarcasm. OH, and TSIK is updated.

Dear Fanfiction.net,

Thank you so much for making it impossible to edit submissions via html. Your added bonus of completely breaking your code for Safari browser was a particularly wonderful touch. The fact that it took an hour to figure out exactly how you screwed up this time made me feel splendid.

Your loving servant,
Darsy

ps. Head on over to [livejournal.com profile] tsik_inscribed for your latest dose of sugary sweetness.

FF.net is unholy.

It really, really is. However, I'm slightly mollified by the fact that when I hit 'submit' on a new chapter, approximately 400 people are sent an e-mail.

I create spam by writing, wheee!

You are so popular! I am lucky if four people care that I've posted something new...

Well, admittedly, while people have TSIK on their author alert on fanfiction.net, it doesn't necessarily mean they're interested--I still get e-mails from fandoms I stopped reading four years ago, but haven't taken myself off of the alert list... hehe. Plus it's made me slightly neurotic, because when I get hits on the page and no reviews I go 'oh NO do they not like it?!' and that can be worse than not knowing!

LOVE the icon, by the way!

Still...it's something.

Thanks. It's an MST3K moment iconed by the famed [livejournal.com profile] dirkdigital.

And of course you mean my FANFICTION icon, not the one I used before. My apologies for the blonde moment. The fanfiction icon was created by the glorious [livejournal.com profile] purplefeen.

Isn't that the truth?!?!? I just posted a chapter yesterday - supposedly long awaited so people said - and I've got ONE review. Lots of hits, but no word if good or not. *misses feedback*

A friend of mine wrote a huge Ginny/Draco story that was like 50 chapters long and posted it to FF.net. Then her computer crashed and she lost the file, so she went to FF.net to try save it to her computer again and what do you know? They'd taken it down. She lost all hope with them then.

Eek looks like my first response to you didn't work, as it's not on here! Sorry about that--I think I'd said that that sounds exactly like something ffnet would do, and I wish I knew of a way to port out the review pages, cause some of them are really constructive and I'd like to keep them in case something catastrophic happens, you know?

Aww *hugs you* I'm glad I made you smile! Sorry this didn't appear to post the first time, I think my program was having connectivity issues that day! >.>
