@Platypus, you mentioned that I (@Oddbeach) forgot to include a category bar. Would you please tell me where I make this mistake? Thanks :)

Is there a way to change the name of a story the easy way without having to change all the categories, too?--Fredhot16 8:40 (Louisiana Time), 6 March 2017

@Platypus, in response to your reaction to my (Rogan-thumb) addition to you story; I was wondering whether it would be okay if I were to continue making additions and edits, or if you would prefer me to step back? Which I will happily do so.

@Platypus, understood. I will attempt my own story at some point. Thanks for the tips and the criticism. I'll aim to improve in future. --Rogan-thumb

Moving project

Hi Platypus,

Would you be interested in moving the project to its own domain and server? It's become painfully clear EditThis is not capable of supporting the project's infrastructure and is hindering the continued growth of the project. I've noticed several issues which are causing problems for CYOS:

  • The throttling is disrupting both readers and writers from fully enjoying the stories.
  • Excessive abuse filters are causing administrative issues for you.
  • Lack of anti-abuse tools makes it extremely inefficient to counter abuse.
  • Extremely outdated MediaWiki installation which hasn't been updated in nearly 8 years.

We can fix all of the above problems and implement a mass undo feature, a mobile version of the website, and do much more to create a modern CYOS-type website once we move to a new domain and server. Since CYOS doesn't allow user to user emails, could you perhaps contact me at floatingspace@protonmail.com to discuss specifics? Thanks. Spider 21:47, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
