Signal boost -- ff.net is about to purge any fics that drifted past the "M" rating. Back up your own, and even if you don't have any, don't forget to check favorites. Some stories you like may soon be disappearing.
From ff.net news today:
“News:
June 4th 2012 — Notices:
Please note we would like to clarify the content policy we have in place since 2002. FanFiction.Net follows the Fiction Rating system ranging from Fiction K to Fiction M. Although Fiction Ratings goes up to Fiction MA, FanFiction.Net since 2002 has not allowed Fiction MA rated content which can contain adult/explicit content on the site. FanFiction.Net only accepts content in the Fiction K through Fiction M range. Fiction M can contain adult language, themes and suggestions. Detailed descriptions of physical interaction of sexual or violent nature is considered Fiction MA and has not been allowed on the site since 2002. “
I'm afraid a number of the fics on my own favorites list are about to disappear, and they're not all on AO3 (which has its own problems, but exists for just such reasons as this.)
Pass it on.
