More problems with favourites... I'm not sure if you guys turned them off because of the problems, but when I try to go to the "Manage Favourites" section, I get a screen that says "You are not authorized to access that function." Also, I was curious so I went to my statistics and I can no longer see how many favourites my stories have.

Another strange thing to note...the updated date didn't change either.  This whole thing is just bizarre!

No, it didn't.  I don't think it has been for anyone this has happened to.  It's basically acting like the story wasn't updated at all, except for that the new chapters are there.

Ooh, mine is doing that too.

According to Sel, it said my story wasn't updated since the middle of September but i've been updating every single Saturday since i started posting. As far as the favorites, i'm pretty sure we didn't turn that function off.

I guess that also answers the question as to whether or not things wil show up as most recent without the favorites feature because Julie, not sure how long that has been off but if you still weren't able to post, then that can't be the main problem. :( balls!

I went poking around and saw a button about most recent updates and pushed it lol i'm sure it wasn't that simple but let me know if it did anything for anyone who had trouble updating before. LOL

If it's worse i'll go back and unclick it. If it's fixed then I shall have ten heart attacks lmao

I wonder if Julilly turned it off this afternoon.  The favorites were there earlier in the day.  I'm not sure if they were there when I updated or not.

I have more than 20 who have favorited (not a real word I know lol) Once In A Blue Moon and so far the updates for it have shown on most recent. *knocks on wood* My Shades of Gray has like 18 and that's the one that was giving me problems not showing as being updated until I deleted chps and reposted them and took the MCI thing off. Technology can be such a pain sometimes lol.

I'm pretty sure she didn't since we both thought it was a bad idea. I'm beginning to think the site has a mind of its own lol

I just saw Chaos posted a new news item that said he was disabling it. Maybe i'll go disable it again to see if it works.

Ash, would be nice to know these things before they happen. lol

Yeah, this is really weird LOL.  Your stories both have a lot of reviews too, Summer, so I'd think if it had to do with favorites and reviews, yours would both be messed up too.  There must be another factor involved in it.

Do any of you use AOL? That's how I post everything and I know sometimes AOL can be a pain in the ass.
