Usually mine are verified within a couple of hours. Longest I’ve ever waited was a couple of days. Sometimes things slow down the verification process... things like Moderators having to do things in real life, maybe they are sick, or their children are sick, they have jobs that they actually do get paid for, unlike here where they are gracious enough to volunteer what little spare time they have so people like us can upload our stories for free ?


brown noser. like the new avi, btw smile

I think you are mixing Rembrandt with Picasso.

You used dice, at least on the top three, right?

Would it be rude to ask if I got anywhere near the top 20? I promise to spank you hard if you tell me.


i never mix my artists.

nope. used a three sided coin, though.

yes, it would be rude. there, i told you. can i have my spanking now? smile

Amazing! My latest was submitted 12 Jan and is still not verified... the cynical side of me wonders if it's because I started this thread... nah!

I also wonder if moderators are assigned to certain categories, that would make sense I suppose and could explain why submissions in some categories get posted sooner.

But that can't be true because I've been dealing with same moderator now for some time regardless of story genre...but them I'm gettin' old so maybe that's not right either.bBqplNpvtggUF1tp


we don't play those games. although it's an amateur site, we take great pride in treating our writers with a degree of professionalism and politeness.

we don't assign mods certain categories. that said, there are a few that some of the mods pass up on for personal reasons - mostly the , reluctance, and bdsm stories. other than that, we try to get them in the order they come in, gold members, of course, getting pushed automatically to the top of the que.

I recently fell in love with VIKINGS show and have caught up to recent season.
Now I just wait impatiently for Wednesday nights and go out to dinner w/ Vladyslav because I can't be bothered to sit through commercials so we record it.






Been watching it for a while - binge watched the first 3 seasons. one of my fav shows. smile

Just wanted to stop in and congratulate the occupants of this fine establishment that made it into the top 10 of the competition. My first story didn't fare too well, but I certainly appreciate any of you that read it and commented. Now I have to decide whether to keep writing or realize that against the competition that lives here, I will never have a chance. Here's to everyone that entered, whether you won or lost....Cheers!


no one here started out as a good writer. my first efforts from when i started long long ago are embarrassing. but i enjoyed doing it, and over time, i got better. Jimi Hendrix's first guitar lesson wast probably painful to listen to. Rembrandt's first sketch probably looked like a three eyed skunk wearing a dress. anyone who wants to write to the level of the 3 winners, can - it just takes a lot of hard work. *hugs* so yeah, keep writing. please. that's the only way you get better. Just keep at it. smile
anyone who made it into top 10 this go around have a lot to be proud of. the competition was crazy fierce - and congratz to the top 3. all 3 were amazing pieces. you guys killed it. smile
Congrats to everyone who made the list. to be honest, my top 10 consisted of 20 stories, 2 of which were submitted last minute and didn't make the vote count. for the record, Larry, i really loved your steampunk take. it was incredibly well written and imaginative. Rumps, btw, did make the top 20, if that helps. smile
very very naughty. in fact, i think she needs a spanking.

Yer saying us bisexuals are not supposed to be posting here???
l


lol - i never said anyone wasn't allowed to post in here - just seemed that the question was aimed towards gay women and i was surprised that guys were the ones posting. i think anyone who knows even a little about me knows that i'd never tell anyone not to post somewhere. smile

Both please I'm greedy.


make up your mind. sheesh.
Quote by Lauradj


That's pretty cool about that screen writer buddy signing up for the newsletter. smile Yes, it is nice to day-dream about it getting seriously signed. That may yet happen, you never know. I guess, what I'm trying to say is, no one told you life was gonna be this way.

I'm also pretty sure having no shame is one of the qualifiers for getting into Rumps, so you fit right in. Now if you'll excuse me, it is Topless Tuesday so...................

Okay V-Man, now it's your turn. Top off, tits out!


i loved your old avi. i love your new one. i think i am developing a crush on you, or at least your avis.
Quote by Hasabrain2


Sunday was the only co-ed day. Other days of the week were reserved for just men or just women.



that's kind of hard to imagine - the gym i go to is a little more old school than 24 Hour Fitness, et all - a little more set up for peep into weightlifting or sparring and it's mostly guys, but the few women there are made to feel welcome and comfortable. smile

Yep, it's into latex bondage.

Is it just for mod testing at the moment or can we all try it?

Edit: Congrats. Lush expands, Good to see it after visiting for 5 years.


you can all try it, tho we're still ironing out the kinks. kinks. get it? kinks... *crickets* wow. tough crowd.
Quote by nicola
Thanks for starting a new thread Noll. I thought it best to keep it a separate announcement as those type of posts often get hijacked with technical problems and all the rest of it.

There's something up with the login process at the moment. Mods aren't able to get in either. It's being investigated. Apologies!

There are a lot of really cool features on the mobile site we'd like to merge with our feature set here, which I think a lot of people will enjoy.

Hopefully we can give it a really good test this week, and sort all these teething problems out.



I'm in and i'm not let anyone else in! it's mine! all mine i tell you!
Quote by Beffer
I used to wear 2 sports bras when I ran cuz just one wouldn't keep me under control. Now I swim at the university natatorium and just wear a bikini. Much more comfortable. If you're looking for thrills, go to the pool!


pretty sure nothing actually keeps you under control. smile
Quote by Hasabrain2
Seriously, is this a thing or not?

While as a guy I want to encourage the trend, it is a family gym. Fourteen and up can use the equipment on the their own.
Younger kids with a parent present.


you make it sound like a sports bra is indecent. you know women wear bikinis at the beach or at swimming pools, right? smile

I'd have enjoyed Mary Poppins far more without Dick Van . His is the worst Cockney accent I have ever heard. I will check out Mary Poppins Returns as soon as I can. IF you promise he's not in it. Oh crap. I just looked and he is.


What are you talking about? his accent is perfect! that's what all english people sound like, right?
why does it have to be for evening? what do you have against morning anal?
when she helps you hide the bodies, no questions asked.
I wear one ecause going topless is usually frowned on.
Hi Sveta! welcome to Lush and glad you decided to officially join!

EDIT: I guess the mods can only delete the thread starter and not my mocking post making fun of this ridiculous topic making it look like I started this thread? Weird.


Please stop creating thread like this, Jack. It's embarrassing.
Quote by Nesrm


Hey Buzz... FUCK YOU!

Nesrm
Free thinker not bound by your profane attempt to flex your moderator muscle. Ban me, block me, delete me... I don't care because I didn't start this shit!


Neither did Buz. You (collectively) have been asked at least twice to knock off the pissing match going on in here. Responding with polite requests from volunteer moderators doing their job to make sure that a few simple rules of etiquette are followed with a "fuck you" and charge that it is some sort of power play on the mod in question is not appreciated. I hope you take your time off as a chance to calm down and re-think your attitude. An apology to Buz would probably be a good start at making amends.

I hope that the rest of you do the same. As Candy said, there are people here who would actually like to discuss the topic rather than listen to the rest of you harass each other.

Thanks.
Sprite.

Revised Lush MOB(ile) site

On the SITE ANNOUNCEMENT forum, Nic has just posted info about the just-launched new version of the Lush MOB site. Instead of my repeating what she posted, you'd be well advised to go there and check it out for your ownself.

Anyone then feeling lead to come back and explain it all to me and the other computer clueless will earn themselves a free beer for doing so. ;)

Ask Liz - personally, i'm too blonde to get it smile
my mom's dead. it would just be kind of weird. and illegal.

It's actually been 2-day turnaround for established authors for a few years now over there. May creep up to 3 if the volume is really high.


oh, ok. things have changed a bit, then. smile

Quote by MicheleNylons
I am prolific author of online erotic fiction, mainly themed around transvestites (because I am one so easy to write about) but also , pantyhose/stocking fetish (yes I have one), and often with a forced/reluctance theme.

I am published on Literotica, Fictionmania, Stories Online, Nifty, Top Shelf and few other smaller sites. Some of these sites take a day or two to publish submitted work and some send back for revision but here at Lush it seems to take forever for works to get approved and published.

I don't know, maybe it's just the holiday season and all the moderators are away on holiday?

Not complaining; just sayin' that's all



that and the competition deadline, where we green lighted all comp entries. btw, gold members get 24 hour (usually) turn around on submitted stories.

as for why we don't allow multiple submission, one reason is, if you're writing a multi part story and we send back chapter 4 for revision but publish chapter 5, than you've got a hole in your story.

as for the other sites, i can't speak for Fict, SO, Nifty, or TS but unless things have changes, Lit takes notoriously long to publish - i know this from talking with other authors as well as personal experience. Maybe you just got lucky.
