Comments

._. No one replied to my comment on the last fiction edition? I wasn't sure if you all include chapter updates or not...

[mmouse15.livejournal.com]

Apologies! We do include chapter updates, but we can't link to locked entries. We simply watch comms, so anything that's locked to members doesn't show up on our watchlist. It's not fair to people that aren't members of the comm.

If you have another place (AO3, FFN, etc.) that has the chapters, we can link there. Just drop me the link and I'll put it in this edition.

[pl2363.livejournal.com]

Ah, I see. They made me lock it in that comm since that chapter was rated M.

I post all my fics to ffnet, here is the link to it:

Thanks for your help, and sorry for being a pain. :3

[mmouse15.livejournal.com]

And it's added! Thanks for the link, and sorry about the delay. You're not a pain, I appreciate you continuing to ask. Our system is not the easiest to understand.

Thanks again for your patience!

My apologies: I never got the notification that you'd commented. LJ does that to me sometimes. There are people whose comments I never see unless I manually check--mmouse and ladydragon, for example. I DID manually check the newsletter for at least a day after posting it for that reason. If you commented after that, my apologies.

[mmouse15.livejournal.com]

I'm so glad I'm not the only one LJ is not notifying. It's driving me crazy. Neither you or I have the time to keep checking back on entries. It's really quite frustrating.
