    Big change(s) coming to the Fiction Section - No limits!

    An upgrade to the Fiction Section will soon:-
    1) Remove all viewing limits: Any user will be able to read any amount of fiction. Note: Member Only fiction contributions etc, can still only be accessed by Subscribed Members.
    2) Permit non-registered user access: Visitors without registered accounts will now be able to access fiction (& the art section). They obviously will not be able to rate contributions or comment though.
    3) Permit non-registered user submissions: The option to submit a contribution was previously only offered to registered users. Any visitor will be able to access this option.

    Other under the hood changes are also being performed, but the above 3 are the obvious big changes
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    Those are pretty good changes. I've sent a number of people to our fiction section to check it out, only to hear back from them that they can't be arsed to sign up.

    Well, soon they won't have too!

    Each contribution will also show a direct URL. So you can just cut'n'paste it to a friend and they can read the contribution by just following that link
