I know. It's awful! I've had issues with OWL for quite a while, not so much with reading there, but as far as posting fic. I started posting my first SS/HG exchange story from 2010 and after the first few chapters posted, there were two chapters that sat in the queue for months. When I e-mailed I got no response, so I just eventually just gave up, they are still sitting in the queue as far as I know. Because of that I don't really go there much anymore. I remember when Colored Grey disappeared and many great Dramione fics were lost forever. :( That's why I try to save my fave fics now, But you can't save them all, ya know? I'm always scared either my fave archives will disappear or the author's are going to pull all their fanfic off the net.
