QUOTE(Cain @ Nov 22 2016, 03:47 PM) I can't stress the loss of data enough, Thorny. The entire reason Haven was created was so that out story writers could flex their creative freedom with the restrictions of Bethsoft. If everyone's stories are dumped due to a host hiccup, that's a major deal.
A while back we had a fairly major issue, both harddrives in the server failed. I don't recall much, if anything, being lost. A few lingering oddities as a result, mind you, but nothing major seemed to come of it. And who at Haven is just writing their stories straight onto the forum? My guess: No-one. QUOTE(Cain @ Nov 22 2016, 03:47 PM) Plus, if we could easily move to a more stable domain/forum, then why not? It will be put before the community before it happens, but it never hurts to plan ahead.
If you'd mentioned that you were considering it before this incident, I might have figured that was your thinking. From what you've posted so far, it comes off as a panicked, knee-jerk reaction to a single incident.

QUOTE(Cain @ Nov 22 2016, 03:59 PM) We've mentioned it before, but just as a thought for the future. We technically are breaking Zb's rules with some of our content, which was the original reason to plan out something else.
Really? Fair enough. Though I'm guessing I'm gonna lose my green glow. And I never even saw it!

I tend to agree with Thorny on this issue. Wait and see if there is a problem (with lost material; the outage is its own problem) before making up your mind and moving.

Oh well that is a different story all together then!

Really? Fair enough. Though I'm guessing I'm gonna lose my green glow. And I never even saw it! Yeah, sexual content and nudity is not allowed under their terms and conditions. We have both in the form of steamy romance chapters, and naked character screens. That's why you can't even view the story sections unless you are a full member. By the way, I'm stealing that whistle emoji.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

I had wondered about that before I joined, but never got around to asking Though I think you're understating things. Sah's new video thread springs to mind, as does at least one chapter of one of the stories(I won't name which) that went beyond "steamy romance"

QUOTE(Cain @ Nov 22 2016, 04:16 PM) Oh, yes, can't forget about Sah's videos. And I approved those, lol. Who wouldn't? QUOTE(Cain @ Nov 22 2016, 04:16 PM) Off the top of my head, Grits, Andra, and Res have some "steamy" scenes. And then there are some non TES related scenes in the Story Stories thead, too. So I've got plenty more to look forward to then! And you really do love that whistle emoticon, don't you? Edit: Fluffed an emoticon. *facepalms* This post has been edited by Callidus Thorn: Nov 22 2016, 05:25 PM

Ah, but you've failed to mention Bestie, NES games, or watching that guy on his sofa on youtube.
