Hello Wolfen!
I see you.
But I doubt we aren't getting anything like that any time soon.

Charge a dollar for every story.
It would encourage the talented writers to write more and an better stories.
Split each dollar. Half goes for the site, half for the author. If people learned that if they are talented enough they can make some cash they might come back as well!
Sure the site is great, but people do put a lot of effort into it with writing, stories, videos and pictures and they too never ask for anything in return.
The site expects everyone to pay for stuff and it generally treats people as the product. You want to talk to more people, pay more, you want to do this and that with more people, pay more.
It's not a lot of money, sure, but it's like paying for a lottery ticket. You might get lucky but more often than not its a bust.
I would think that if you had a chance to make some money for the stuff you put into the site, you'd really want a chance to try it and I imagine lots of people would come here.
Of course there would have to be a standard of quality for the stories you paid for vs the ones that would remain free.
This could be a great help to the site and the community both.
People aren't willing to pay for the big upgrades. Maybe they'll be willing to support their favorite authors instead.
Payments could be made once a month or something like that.
But quality would be extremely important. Who ever controls that would have a heck of a lot of work to do
FF needs some kind of an edge if it is to keep on living.
This could help out.
Providing we could get people to part with their dollars.
:-D
Also, Video Chat. I've never been to a website that made you pay to view other people's cams in a chat room besides this one.
I think bringing that back would make people happy.
Also, games. We literally need something to do a reason to come back so maybe we can look into making a casual E-sport FF team for Mobas and what not across all the platforms to meet once or twice a week, that could be fun to organize.
Or make our own RPG system. I used to RP in a place called Dragonsmark. I know Role playing is popular here. Maybe some organization on that front. People would show up more if they had a character to maintain.
Community projects. Not sure for ideas on this yet but I think we need to try to include as many as we can on community wide projects..maybe a movie, or releasing another book. I know we did something like that but I don't know how it went.
Maybe themed events. Different months, different things to do.
Participation is the heart of any community and if we only come on here to go into the chat room and act like robots, it's all pretty pointless.
Also, put the shouts back on the main page like it used to be.
I don't know why they were ever hidden to their own separate page but I think that was a bad idea.

It's the most bestest thing of all time. Ask any feedee.
Its awesome.
Super awesome.
Stop fighting it and give in to the greatness that is this lifestyle.
Every experience is different, depends on the level of the feeder. It can be incredibly boring if you have a dwip for a feeder, and there are a lot of dwips out there.
So find a creative one.
For your own good, find a creative one and make sure you like them more than just the fetish or you're gonna have a bad day. YOU don't want to have a bad day.
You want a good day.
So if someone starts asking you more than what you're allergic to and what you like to eat and don't....you take that red flag and run far...far away.
Look for someone who's written a book on the subject and put it on amazon.com under a fake name for about three bucks.
Don't settle for average.
NEVER settle for average.
All of this is amazing. Jump in.

In my younger days I tried this with online people, but none of them had the courage to stick with it for more than a few weeks.
Such is life.

I used to go to a gym at least three days a week. I'd go to a place called Planet Fitness. You know the one where its anti gym rat, no pressure. Anyway there were all kinds of bigger women there that I'd watch while I'd workout on the machines.
But I over did it and did something really bad to my left arm, I could barely move it so I stopped going, but it was at the end of my membership anyway I opted not to renew it.
But yes, if that is what you're looking to see, go to a place like that. Good times!

Wasn't aware that you were the one getting the feedback, lol.
"Some people take criticism personally" lol some people take it personally even when they didn't have anything to do with it.
She asked for feedback. You don't ever improve without someone suggesting what can be improved. Writing is harsh, brutal sometimes. I'd absolutely know how hard it is.
She wanted to know what I thought. So I told her. Simple as that. She wanted suggestions, I provided them, just as asked.
Honestly hurts. I've learned this lesson a long time ago, but if you're going to be a writer you need to learn how to take what I said and use it. Not take what I said and cry in a corner. Thick skin.
I have always been very direct. I felt a spark of potential in her work.
Apparently I was the only one, you do no favors by lying to someone, telling their work is good as is, when its not. You don't let someone one win every battle and let them think they are really good until they get out into the real world where someone knocks them down in a heartbeat.
There is nothing wrong with striving for excellence. That is my point. Perfection doesn't exist, sure. But this is her first story. I'd really hate it if she had a passion for writing but kept up like she does in her first attempt.
If you have the fire, use it.
I won't take back a single word. Besides, Softly, you should understand the merit of not settling, right? After all if you want something, you truly should never stop until you find it. And if you look and work hard enough for it. You'll get it.
Settling for what you think is good enough and sacrificing real talent for 'well this makes me happy' that's just no way to live if you have to forever dabble in something you like, on the edges wishing for what might have been.
This girl here might have a true talent for word working. I read it. I didn't like it. I suggested on how to make it better.
If that's not constructive criticism I don't know what is.
True cruelty would have just to say "This sucks" and not ever explain why. I wouldn't do that :-)
So again, original poster. If you're serious about writing this story. Put your heart into it. See it in your mind. Make your vision real, it's never easy to do it and it takes work, time and effort.
Good luck.
