I updated today, not last Sunday

[isethia.livejournal.com]

I was able to log on this morning and update my story. However, for some reason, fanfiction.net seems to be under the impression that I updated my story on April 3rd. That was the day I posted chapter four. Today, I posted chapter five. The new chapter is there, and can be read. But, no one will see it, because my story didn't move up the list of stories. And no alerts went out. And I know I have people waiting for the update. But how in the world are they supposed to know that I posted it?!

And I know other people have had their stories go through correctly, because I was able to read the newest chapter in one of the stories I'm following, and that new chapter was posted this afternoon.

At this point, I'd consder going to another archive, but I don't feel comfortable posting my stories anywhere else. And, I wouldn't even know where else to post them.

ETA: As of this morning (4/13/11), my story has finally shown up where it's supposed to be.

I can't say anything to help, or tell you how to fix it except by just letting the developers try and handle it themselves. But just try and believe in them, because they know that if it's not working then we'll just leave.

Speaking of leaving, please don't leave! Even if you feel that they don't care about you, you can be pretty darned sure that your readers care (and I care too, stranger!). Please don't go over to another archive; a lot of people have been leaving lately because of the RedBooton issue (which has seriously been taken the wrong way, I mean, they can't physically delete your stories, only report them to be deleted and FF are really, really slow at following up on reports) and there aren't many left on the site.

...
Gah, what am I saying? I'm going off track again.

Basically, this anon just wants you to know that you're loved, and that it'll all be okay. Anon will always love you! ♥


_{of course please don't take this in a creepy way or anything: anon just loves everyone}

Ah, you're one of the nice anons. That's good. I've seen some anons that hate everybody. :)

As of this morning, my story has finally shown up where it's supposed to be.

And I don't plan to leave entirely, even if I do start posting somewhere else. I'm just thinking of a back-up plan.

You are sweet. So so so sweet. While most of us are ranting and freaking how you are being kind and understand and... o.m.g -HUGS YOU- I wish every anon was like you!

On another note... you were right.

The chapter showed up this morning. 7: 40 for me.

It looks like they fixed everything.
