‡ Authors' Review ‡

• Are the rules and terms of submission easy to find?
  We do not have many rules except proper ratings/story codes, disclaimers, and NO PLAGIRISM!  I have this information permanently on the front page under the story categories, and I am also working on a set of FAQs for additional clarification.  I addition, my email is clearly out there for people to contact me with any problems, and we have a mailing list for support as well.
• Do you supply a beta reader for authors?
  No, but we do have a section for "Tips and We have a Beta Reader Category in our Resources area, anyone that wishes to offer Beta services may post there, plus we have a mailing list that people may post requests to.
• Are you polite about rejecting fics?
  Since AFF.Net is an Auto Archive site and I strongly believe in freedom of expression and personal creativity, the only fics I will reject are plagirised ones.
• Do you remove author's notes or copyright notices without asking the author first?
  No, The only editing done to stories is by the Author only.
• Do you ever archive fics without permission?
  The only time a fiction is archived is if the Author personally registers and uploads it.
• Are you prompt about removing fics at an author's request?
  The Author has complete control over deletion and editing, 24/7, 365 days a year.
• What is your plagiarism policy...do you investigate or do you take a complainant at their word?
  If I am notified of a possible case, I do not pull the story until it has been reviewed by myself, and if possible the Author of the original work.  In the case of someone plagirising a published work, I contact our mailing list pool of 700+ and ask for a volunteer (or two) with a copy of the book to review and send me their objective opinion.
  If a case is proved, I privately notify the Author of the offending work and give them a 48 hour deadline to change or remove the story.  If they do not act after this time, I remove the story.
  I strive to keep as many of the details as private as possible, including the name of the story, the Author, and any emails.
• Do you update at least once a month?
  We update every minute!  Literally!  We had over 1.5 million hits in the month of December 2002.
• Do you make it possible for readers to leave feedback?
  AFF.Net features a 1-5 star rating system as well as a written review option, and we feature a hit counter on each story so the Author nows exactly how many people are looking at their work even if no reviews or ratings are left.
• Is your location stable, or you they move frequently?
  As of Mid Nov 2002, we are hosted by a stable, high speed connection, and I have no plans to move unless the quality of service degrades to a point where I am forced to find a new home.
