When I click on 'My Media' on my profile, it just eggtimes for me. I can see other people's, just not my own.

This is still not working for me. I've logged off, cleared cache etc, but still can't access my media. Thanks.

Weird. I just went to your profile to see if I could see your media, and it eggtimes for me too. I can see you have two media files, but when I click it, I get the infinite loady screen. My profile is ok for some reason, although I did have my public image gallery before the changeover which all transferred into my public album by default.

I know this is trivial, but is the timestamp set to the US? Some posts that happened earlier today (Australian time) have gone to yesterday in my feed. Not that the forum timestamp was particularly accurate before, it seemed like it reflected New Zealand time back to me. 


I do like the My Comments format and that it does give me easy access (as on the old site) to comments on my stories or forum posts. And it is easier to use than the previous version. The one thing that this version doesn't do is notify me when someone responds to my comment on their story. Is that part of the 'to-do' list?


I received a nice email to view Violet's album of sugary sweet cat pics. That works really well, and I do like that Violet can and did add a time dimension to it. I know there will be bugs to fix (Messenger for instance can behave a little oddly at times,) which take priority, but for me it is Friends Activity and BB’s that I am missing most from the old version. Lots of improvements, well done to all who have been part of this.   


My latest story, Mardi Gras Competition: Sydney's Mardi Gras: We Shall Overcome

Some earlier stories:

Spooky Tales competition: Tales From the Crypt: Downunder Edition

Tam-challenge Micro: Under the Red Hoodie 

Maybe my best story: Finding Pride on Oxford Street

At the other place, if someone replies to a comment I made on a story, I get a notification. That doesn't seem to happen here. 

This forum looks almost exactly like the one at the old mobile site that was closed down last November! But having 'submit' and 'submit and watch' is a good improvement. At the old mobile site I had to remember to un-click the watch after submitting a comment.

Same code base but significant improvements have been made over the couple weeks since it went live here. Still needs work (and your report will likely join others in the queue), but I am fairly happy with where things are at, and I hated the site you mention. The "Submit and Watch" and "Submit" was actually the result of member feedback, including from me so they are listening and working to improve things based on our feedback. Nice to see you here.

i'm not keen on the new site, but i can live with it. i may even grow to like it in time.

one concern i have, though, is that i am told i have no forum posts. i know i had a conversation with scott in the coffee lounge.

hey, i like the paragraph spacing in this forum editor.

Hi, Grace. Weird. Not sure how far back the My Posts goes or how complete it is. I have only used it to look for recent stuff.

That is strange. I just check on the "My Post" section at the Forum Home page and it gives me a list of all my postings.

Yeah, it goes back to like 2014 on mine (though I didn't become very active until the last three or so years.)

Y'all are lucky. I can't even login to the new red site. And if I manage it, I'm only logged in on the site itself and not the forum.

I...I'm about ready to give up.

I am having the same difficulty and so are a lot of other people. I got in at first and had a look around but now can't get past the first detail page. I can see my profile but can not interact with it and it shows I am online even though I logged off and there are a few of my private photos showing publicly. Hopefully, that will get sorted soon.

I am asking the crossover members the same thing I asked when SS got its facelift. Please be patient. It has been less than 24hrs and you must keep in mind that the site is twice the size of this one.


There are some glitches logging in and there are some glitches throughout the site, but please know that they are working on this as quickly as they can. Again, having patience is the number one thing right now.


If you have a serious, more immediate concern, please feel free to message me privately.

Actually, could we just keep the discussion in another thread or something? We do still need this thread for issues on this site, stable as it is now.

Actually, there is no reason why there should be discussions about the crossover site at all in the forums on this site. That is why I asked everyone to be patient and to message privately if they have concerns.

I'd like to see the line spacing tweaked a bit, so that spaces between paragraphs are a little larger, and easier to differentiate from the spaces between lines within a paragraph. I'd apply this both to stories and to Forum text.

Yes, I agree completely. Stories in particular look like a big block of text.

Weird glitch of the day: Let's Count thread in Games is showing bolded in both New Posts and the forum list, but I have viewed the latest post in the thread. Not sure why it is still showing as if there are unread posts. Not a big deal, but could become one if it keeps up going forward so that it becomes a problem to see which new posts I have already looked at.

I noticed the same thing across several forum threads.  And sometimes new posts I haven't read are not highlighted. Not a big deal but it is noticeable.

One thing I noticed is that if you have never posted in a given thread, it does not get bolded when new posts are added. At least that's what I have found when I have looked into the ones in New Posts that aren't bolded for me.

Hm. This finally un-bolded when I checked the thread this time.


I did just have trouble getting in by the way. Getting 504 errors from Cloudflare showing that it couldn't reach the server.

Weird glitch just happened to me, I clicked on ‘stories’ here on SS and got the other site’s current front page with the SS blue banner at the top! I then hit ‘profile’ again, at which point I had to re-sign in and got the right list showing. 

Either there’s a weird intermittent merging of the sites going on or someone spiked my coffee with hallucinogens this morning 😳


Edit: I’m not seeing things, it just did it again. There’s definitely site merging happening, check out the menu, we’ve got chat rooms, erotic gallery and webcams listed in Blue sad

Okay, I’ve logged out, logged back in again and Blue is as it should be. Fingers crossed that was just a transient glitch caused by the updates/migration/incomprehensible tech stuff 🤣

I have submitted a story several days ago, It's still showing as

In Draft' even though I got the message that it was submitted flashed on the screen when I did it.  Problems?  This new process is much less intuitive and no real feedback when something is in that state between submitted and published.

We've had a few people running into the same issues as you. I've submitted it and hopefully, they are looking into it.
