A great deal of work goes into posting final versions of stories on this site. I don't know of any other that edits for gramer, spelling, etc. If someone takes the time to write a story and sends it to the Spanking Library, it is to share with others who are looking for this specific entertainment. You require membership so you have some idea of who is coming and going and maybe the software allows you to see how many stories are viewed? The point is: you are monitoring your members to some degree, so I assume you can restrict a member from being able to return to the site if they are doing something that wastes your time, not following the rules, etc. Based on all of the above, why not start allowing members to transfer stories to their electronic readers, such as the new I-Pad or the Kindle? Author's want their works read. It is very restrictive to only be able to read a story live on the library site. I beleive e-book transfer would bring many more members. With as much care and time put into making the stories available, the restriction to reading only on site should be re-considered. Maybe there is a small charge for any story transfered to an e-book. Amazon gets about 15 cents every time you send a story you find on the web to your Kindel. For those who have no interest in e-reading...the rules stay the same. BUT at 10 or 15 cents a story every time one is transfered for later reading...it adds up and covers your web site cost, plus. If the aurthor has been willing to share for no charge, if anyting this gives them a wider audience and may encourgae more stories to be written.
