Following Story -- forced to leave review?

Seems they've changed this recently.  I will generally follow a story if it sounds promising, but not read it (and thus review it) until the story is completed.  There are so many stories out there that have never been completed.     Now it appears that you have to leave a review before you can opt to follow the story or author.  Wotta PITA.

None of my rss feeds work now

I have an number of [livejournal.com profile] fandom_rssfeeds I follow on LJ for specific pairings within series that I like. Due to their changes, none of my syn feeds on LJ work now. Each one says 404 error and the feed links themselves say outdated. This means I have to make each one all over again. That's pretty annoying. If any of you follow any feeds from ff.net on LJ, you might want to check yours as well.

To learn how to get feeds from ff.net, you can find out at http://ffdotnetrants.livejournal.com/148292.html

Edit: You can get LJ to update and change the feed urls for you. http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqcat=syn

Forum topic subscriptions acting up?

I've never been all the familiar with this feature, but it seems to be acting up now.  I used to get alerts the minute someone made a post.  Now, I get an alert, and it's only for the most recent post.  But when I go to the topic, a bunch were made before then-some over an hour beforehand, and I never got alerts for those.
