OWL question?

Is anyone else having really long waits for posting stories at OWL. I posted the first two chapters of my SS/HG fic: A Balance of Three on Sept 6th, so over three weeks ago and have not heard anything back and they are still in queue. I did send a email about a week ago, to ask if things were just a little slow right now but never heard anything back. Just wondering.

Date: 2010-09-28 09:26 pm (UTC)I received an IM from someone on my flist who said she is on staff but has been unable to access the necessary parts of the forum to work the queue. And she knows that she is not the only one, but she has not got a response back to her e-mails. She suggested I post a question to the forum and someone who has access may notice it. So I may try that.
I do worry about my favorite forums after the demise of Coloured Grey a while back, a lot of great HG/DM fic vanished when that archives disappeared.

I hope everything is fine with OWL, and things are back to normal soon.

We are a bit run-down at the moment because the queue is long and some admins have RL issues, but we're working as fast and efficiently as we can. In fact, I tagged your chapter to work on it with clairvoyant, our latest admin. *squees* Yes, we're training a new awesome admin to join the queue works!

Date: 2010-10-01 05:34 am (UTC)I am still concerned about OWL, as I have not heard anything at all back from over there and it's been nearly a month. Planning to wait a few more days as I am going away for the weekend, then will maybe attempt to contact potionmistress.
Thanks so much for the update.

Date: 2010-09-29 05:58 am (UTC)I don't want to seem like I am making a big deal out of waiting a few weeks to get a story validated. I was just curious as to whether others were having the same problem, and if that is now the norm at OWL. I hadn't posted there in quite awhile myself before this. I know RL happens and sometimes that takes precedence, and rightly so. I guess I'll see what happens and if I don't hear anything then I will try to contact her directly and ask.
