The only fic I'm updating on here currenty is my newest Naruto fic. I actually may edit 'My Day' as well in the near future since it has been eight years since I wrote it and Naruto canon has come a long way. At the very least I'll probably fix his parents names.

You can find my works from the last few years at the homepage link on AO3 pseud: Sanva.

I am slowly adding my fanfiction from the various archives I've used in the past to that account. Fics will remain on here, but I will be editing fics from here and reposting most of them there.

To those circling the annoying petition regarding MA content in fic (No I won't report your fic for breaking rules, but the complaining annoys me so I feel like replying to show my annoyance with your petition chapters).

These petition posts annoy me. Not only was I looking forward to a chapter . . . but you're breaking the rules set up just by posting a petition rather than a chapter (Not allowed 1. Non-stories: lists, bloopers, polls, previews, challenges, author notes, and etc).

The guildlines and TOS haven't been changed since 08 and 09 respectively. I was on this site when it had an NC17 rating and that was removed . . . that was back in like 2002 or something like that. The rule was made THEN that sexual content was not allowed.

People have CHOSEN to disregard that and risk having their stories reported for breaking the rules. FFnet doesn't have the manpower to sort through all the fic on the site so they rely a lot on the users to report rule breakers--It's what the 'report possible abuse' option is for in the same menu you can favorite a story at the bottom of the page.

Complaining about this is like going down a highway 15 miles above the speedlimit everyday with a bunch of other people and then complaining when one random day a cop catches you and pulls you over. Those posting the content are in the wrong, have known they're in the wrong (either that or just didn't bother to read the posted guildlines which is THEIR fault legally as they agree to them simply by using the site and posting).

The problem isn't a change in that FFnet suddenly doesn't allow sexual content. It hasn't for a decadeish now. It's that users decided the rules didn't apply to them, much like speeders tend not to think they'll get caught.

More than likely ffnet received a barrage of reported fics and upset/concerned notes regarding sexual content in fic that isn't supposed to be there and felt that they should restate their rules as a reminder to all authors. It is unlikely that any story, unless reported, will actually get deleted.

Not saying that I like the lack of NC17 but I won't sign the petition because I get MA fics on AO3 and other archives.
