Fanfiction Net problems

[ffutures]

Something appears to be badly wrong with fanfiction.net - it looks like posting stopped working some time on Saturday. Or rather, stories appeared to post but anything added since then isn't appearing, so there are a lot of stories where the last chapter gives an error message, or has vanished again with the story showing as recently updated.

Looking at the latest page for really busy fandoms like e.g. Harry Potter shows the results - the most recent story showing on the first page was posted on the 30th - there's one story above it, showing as last updated on May 30th. What I think happened with that one is that it was actually updated after the problem started to occur, but the update isn't showing.

So if you're posting to fanfiction.net, or read stories there, I'd strongly suggest looking for alternatives.

Update, Thursday 00.02 AM, looks like it started working again some time in the last couple of hours, stories are updating.

later - some are, some aren't. REALLY annoying.

Yeah, it's pretty weird. Apparently people are reaching out to the admins on twitter and in email, and there's been no response at all.

They've always been crap at solving problems, I'm not holding my breath waiting... but they must be losing a ton of ad revenue, so hopefully it'll be fixed.

Looks like it might be OK now, my favourites page finally updated.
