It says I'm not allowed to for 12 months. sad


Honestly, I've never come across that before. Competition rule 12 does state that "Winners must grant lushstories.com the right to display their story for 12 months after the competition has closed, so new readers have time to enjoy their story. Authors will retain all their usual copyrights to their stories."

Perhaps it is something that was implemented to prevent a winning story from being removed/hidden? I would drop Gav or Nicola a PM to ask. I can't see any issue with allowing minor changes to be made after the fact. There's always something that you miss, lol.

It won't let me.


Huh, that's odd. I'm sure it always used to allow it.

Does it give you a warning box or message of any kind?

Can we go in and do minor edits (I'm being anal, I know)?


Yes, you can. smile

Sorry, I've not been told anything before. Show me where in my previous post that I mention racist material. If you think I'm asking the site to accept racist material then you're very much mistaken. I fail to see how you've come to that conclusion from my previous post.


You've been told before on your previous accounts as Desperate_Dan, Wayne_King, etc.

People have had their worked bounced for the same reasons. People have been, in the past, asked to omit certain words because they are banned from the site, or change a paragraph because someone may interpret it as relating to a banned subject. It is, for a better word, farcical, at times. And it has become a much talked about issue on the other site.


You've been told before, we don't publish racist materials on Lush. You need to take that stuff somewhere else. We're not going to change our policy on it just to make you happy. Discrimination against other races and cultures is deplorable.

Seriously, publish it somewhere else (if you absolutely must).

What about 'MILF Rider' instead?

Of course member suggestions can also be shrugged off and treated with derision...


I actually did laugh when I read that particular suggestion, though. It's daft.

Give me five minutes, and it'll be done. Thank you thank you thank you!!!


No problem. Here to help.

Good luck with the competition!
Quote by VirgoGo
Ah, thanks......I was a bit baffled (and irritated!!!!), and it definitely won't happen again. I hate it when nouns go "Poof"! Now I just gotta figure out when to adjust the text.....


If you want to do it now, I'll reapprove it for you straight away.
The Lush story submission system automatically strips URLs from the text. This was put in place to prevent people using stories to advertise products/services, and to remove the possibility of people clicking on links which lead to nefarious websites.

If you want to include something like a web address or an email in a story you will need to type it out, e.g. .

Hope that helps smile

I post mine of me but I've used Disney characters before. I was just assuming people would understand I'm not really Simba in lion king. Although the resemblance is uncanny.



That is uncanny! smile
I do like a girl with ink but it has to be something tasteful. I don't dig tramp-stamps.
This thread has become ridiculous. Some of you really need to step away from the keyboard and take a breath.

I'm serious, this not healthy.

Peace and love.

Thanks..it worked.


Seems to be working fine!

If you could just find a smaller image to use please, that would be great. Just as a courtesy to site visitors who have restricted data usage etc.
Our size guide on that above link gives a good idea as to the maximum allowable dimensions.

Thanks smile

what is ironic about this, and i'll be very blunt here, is that this is aimed at Magical Felix. we all know it, so let's not beat around the bush. i'm pretty sure he's getting a kick out of watching it proceed, in fact. the result, really, isn't going to affect him at all. what it will do is annoy pretty much everyone else. right now, i'm annoyed - i've been dealing with a lot these last few weeks, and really, while i am happy to split my time between story and forum modding, it does grow old when i'm dealing with these kind of threads. Dani has waaaay more patience than i do, honestly.

so, get it out of your system. things will change organically, as they need to. now, if you'll excuse me, i'm going to go eat my dinner of jello and veggie broth. peace out.


Exactly. Yet another thread on this.

If it was deleted would that be censorship, or would it be doing everyone a favour?

*sigh*
Quote by tinytitlover
I also find that messages are not getting through - i have sent about 25 thsi week and had a reply on only one - this site is appalling for that and there is no way they will get money from me


Perhaps it's not that the requests are not being delivered, but what you are sending that puts people off accepting. Did you consider that?

Why is this in the Think Tank? Surely something this lightweight belongs in The Pub


Agreed.

*thread moved to The Pub*

In answer to the OP, I spend most of my time in the forum. I think it is a great place to hang out and I enjoy it very much. smile

Without one single word, he demonstrates the reason for both science and religion. Something appears, and we immediately start to speculate, investigate and debate. We simply cannot exist without trying to explain everything around us. I love this.


I prefer Oldschoolthinker's earlier work:

I'm not annoyed, I just want to know why. WHY! It's pretty easy to add another word to your vocabulary, isn't it?


Which women are we talking about here? All women?

Your non-specific generalisation is absurd in the extreme.
You're annoyed because you think women don't refer to their own anatomy correctly?
Quote by VirgoGo
I hope this isn't too obtuse a question, but many gothic/horror stories run do not comply with the Lush content guidelines....for instance, Poe buried people alive....Shelley dismembered corpses and killed.....I've been pursuing an idea that hits up against the content guidelines, in part because it's hard to evoke terror without spilling some blood. Do I need to reconfigure, or is "gothic" a special circumstance? Frankenstein, for instance, runs afoul of the Lush guidelines as there are deaths depicted.

Many thanks for any guidance you can provide.


We were actually discussing this the other day. The content guidelines were primarily written to stop people from submitting snuff and gore fiction. You can probably imagine some of the seriously disturbed stories that we have had to reject that have never seen the light of day here. Choking someone to death mid-coitus or shaving someone's cock off with a cheese grater is not sexy.

As this competition theme naturally leans towards certain horror elements, I think the moderating team will be pretty flexible. The best advice is to keep in mind what sort of story people come to Lush to read and to try and rein in any urge to go full Tarantino.

Hope that helps? smile
