Being vain I supplied the email address when posting a story to see if anyone had anything to say about it. Looking at the story I can't see how someone would be able to send a message from the story page. How's it done?
Also, being even more vain than that, is there a way to see who has viewed a story I have posted? I think that would be an interesting addition to the site if not currently possible.
The site stopped allowing email addresses to be put in the stories as it was breaking the AUP (no personal contact details on public display) and also because some people had begun to use it as a way of advertising themselve and displaying their email addresses for direct contact. Not that I think for one minute you were doing this, as you say, you just wanted some feedback, but it is something that we do have to watch for and it would not really be fair to allow one person to put on email addresses and not another. You could ask people to send you a pm via the site containing feedback?
As for the number of people reading your story, now that is getting a bit too techy for me, so will let someone else answer that bit wink
Ah, yes, I vaguely remember something about that contacting via stories thing. Does the story submission form need amending to remove that field or may be it's used for moderation purposes?
Actually, the who has loaded a story is perhaps a bit much so may be the numbers of views split by registered and unregistered users? I imagine it would be like the "My Photos" page, although, if I remember correctly, last I checked quite a while ago that didn't actually give the number of views...doh, just checked and it does.
Limited editability of stories also may be? I see at least one point where due to adding in a missed part the next paragraph doesn't clearly identify a participant.
Obviously the PM suggestion only works if one uses one's user name when submitting the story...slap me with a wet fish for that silliness.
Just thought about a "Reader's rating" for stories but then that would mean some people would probably be put off by feeling the feedback was bad, or at least not good. I know I would be frustrated if I put the time into writing something and then finding people throught it not good.
