We have had 3 members this month delete their accounts for a variety of reasons, and then come back, expecting us to be here with open arms, ready to verify all their stories all over again.

The moderators have too much to do as it is, without having to verify the same stories over and over.

This is unfair to those who are submitting here for the first time, and to those who show our site and moderators respect. It increases the time it takes for us to verify their submissions.

Do you want this site to end up the way of others where you have to wait 10 days for a story to be verified? I know it takes this long, I submitted one of my own stories to a few "competitor" sites last month, and was appalled how long it typically took my submission to appear on site.

In summary, I am not going to verify any stories from members that delete their account and come back again, dumping their story collection on us. It is up to the other Moderators if they take the same tack, so think long and hard before deleting your account.

The same applies to deleting stories and then resubmitting them as "new", to try and presumably get more front page exposure (?).

We know which ones have been resubmitted, they are programmatically flagged, plus our Moderators have good memories. It's double handling and our volunteer editors are busy as it is. They will simply be deleted.

That wasn't a typo, was it?

Did you hear the one about the Mother Superior at the convent, who stood up in the refectory during dinner to make an announcement?

She said, "Sisters, there is a case of gonorrhea in the convent."

"Oh thank God," a voice piped up, "I was getting tired of Chardonay."

My memory is flawless. I can remember how many periods were in the first story I read, I can remember....what were we talking about again?

Seriously, why does someone need to delete a free account? Don't do it unless you are sure you are not coming back.

It's one thing when you're re-submitting a story because an error got though (I've done this more than once and I do try hard to not bog the moderators down with this) and I will say I've been pleased with how quickly my stories are posted, or I'm told I need to fix something (case in point, I had a story that was too long & needed to be split) and once the split was done, I waned to link the two parts, and the first story they were tied to. Happily the mods did this quickly and now my stories have been read. Sure having "front page" notice is nice, but if a story is good, it will get read. I have friends and fans who share good stories with me and in turn, I do the same.

Isn't that why we get to "favorite" stories? I know that if I look at someone's profile page I'm more inclined to look at what they have "favorited" as well as what they write. I may not necessarily read them (depends on the genre) but I will at least consider them.

And I to post on other sites... but it's more because I was there first. Besides, there's nothing wrong with expanding your readership.

If I ever decide to delete my account, which I highly doubt I will, I won't be coming back.
