*bump*

Oh, & add "Action!" (lots of unapproved/Locked threads) & these:

[tnadnuder]

Add this one to the Stories-With-Locked-Threads list:

http://www.chyoo.com/index.php/main.story.cover/5484

Also, found another in "Action!" via Thread Search stuff tonight.

Is the orphanage closed & run-down, or can we still check these stories & unlock some threads?

Quick, everyone! Offer to take them before the orphanage's headmaster steals them himself! (Not that he won't take them from you anyway!)

I haven't attempted to add to anything since I am probably persona non grata, but I continue to find stories with "Locked" threads that haven't (it seems) been touched in years. Do we have to put "putting stories up for adoption" up for adoption/employ?

 

[BenjiDude]

It can't hurt to put them up here for the attention of those responsible.

 

[tnadnuder]

It can't hurt to put them up here for the attention of those responsible.

You can see I've done that before (most of this "page"), & nothing has been done.

 

[BenjiDude]

I'm not having this argument over three threads but maybe things have been done you've just not seen them. Maybe those responsible are just busy.

 

[tnadnuder]

I'm not having an argient anywhere. You?

but maybe things have been done you've just not seen them.

If threads are locked, it's because they are waiting for things to be done.

Maybe those responsible are just busy.

Or just irresponsible.

 

[BenjiDude]

See this.

This is me walking away from this obvious attempt at starting up another argument.

 

[tnadnuder]

See this.

Walking away from what you claim is me trying to start another argument... Waiting enough time so people can forget it, at which time you will start it yourself.

[sammy_sludge]

I know I have a Locked thread within 'A Test With Jill'. The author created a sequel to that one, so I think they might have had a specific goal, reached it, then abandoned the story to start the next one.

I checked the author's story list, & see no sign of a connection to any others.

Besides, if they had such a goal, I'd think it'd make more sense for it to be a closed story.

 

[streetzero]

I've had a thread locked in Abused Arsonist for a few months:
http://www.chyoo.com/index.php/member.story.map/6982/144772

I've messaged the author twice to no response.

 

[24ward]

Hi, I've had a locked thread since June in Innocent Virgin! and would be willing to take over as editor.

If only wishing made things so.

I have posted about locked threads in several stories for myself & many other writers, including pseudonyms that have long since been banned from the site. Until recently, I had a mile-plus-long list saved on my PC of stories with locked threads that had not been touched in years. Unfortunately, it appears our "orphanage" has also become inactive.

Willing to take editing duties on any of these.

 

[tnadnuder]

"Ask, & you shall receive." There has already been progress on some of the threads I listed. However, these remain locked:

http://www.chyoo.com/index.php/main.story.page/121628 = Locked

http://www.chyoo.com/index.php/main.story.page/121775 = Locked

http://www.chyoo.com/index.php/main.story.page/131776 = Locked

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Also, the editors of the above have remained the same, as far as I can tell. That makes them different than these threads:

http://www.chyoo.com/index.php/main.story.page/121735

http://www.chyoo.com/index.php/main.story.page/121736

http://www.chyoo.com/index.php/main.story.page/121321

All 3 of these are from the same story, which I am an approved author for. A certain CHYOO/Lit. worker is not a thread-writer at all, & yet has made themselves the editor.

 

[Torg]

I know I have a Locked thread within 'A Test With Jill'. The author created a sequel to that one, so I think they might have had a specific goal, reached it, then abandoned the story to start the next one.

Approved.

 

[Torg]

I've had a thread locked in Abused Arsonist for a few months:
http://www.chyoo.com/index.php/member.story.map/6982/144772

I've messaged the author twice to no response.

Approved.

 

[Torg]

Hi, I've had a locked thread since June in Innocent Virgin! and would be willing to take over as editor.

Approved.

 

[Torg]

tnadnuder seems to be squawking about something, but since I ignore his posts, I assume that he's complaining about me not approving his threads. All I can say is that I'm working on it. Action! has a lot of threads needing approval. I'm working my way through.

I know he expects instant action, but this is a volunteer job.

I'm cool with you ignoring me, much the way I ignore anything you do... If such a thing ever exists.

I know he expects instant action, but this is a volunteer job.

Which means you shouldn't volunteer unless you plan to do the job, & actually have the time & ability.

If only there were people out there who are willing & able to be editors for stories, perhaps some of the same people who have threads waiting to be approved? Oh, there are, but Torg prefers to wait for them to name the site after him.

EDIT: Oh, & lest we forget that the vast majority of the "pseudonyms" I wrote those threads under have been "banished" (also by Torg), so he can edit the threads, adding all the spelling/grammar & other mistakes he wants, & I can't fix them.

EDIT 2: He claims to be the Editor for "A Wishbone Tale", but I should be "trusted" under the rules of the Story Summary, & that isn't the case.

 

[black hand]

I want to adopt the following story, because the editor made the story psoted a few things, and then vanished

http://www.chyoo.com/index.php/main.story.cover/7950

then there is also question of "Can you keep from getting impregnated", which hasn't had a thread approved since april as far as i can tell.

 

[24ward]

April Live!

I can also take over April Live! where I've had a thread pending since January.
