Consider the following: instead of just posting fics in the forums, we had a special part, with users and possibly data tied into the forums, where people could post stories.
It could automatically generate a table of contents, have next and previous chapters links, and use it as a cleaned fic section. Shouldn't be too hard to make, do you all think it would be useful?
A specialized fanfic section....

I like the idea, if you don't think it'd be to much work Adam

It shall be done. I am currently writing a small website for a female I know, and I intend to go live in a matter of days, so that is nearly done.
Once that is finished, I shall write a fanfic repository of DOOM!

When I left that game, I was but the learner. Now I am the master.
That means devlopment will go much faster, because I don't have to be learning the language as I go... I'll be on it soon.
And I need more story and whatnot!

Question: Do you think the fanfic thing should simply be an alternate way to read / post to the Completed fics forum (meaning they share the data so if the thread in there is edited the fic is too) or completly seperate data?

This is what I have going so far. It is pretty simply; authors log in and then post their stories using some bbcode to mark it up if they want.
http://arsdnet.net:8080/library/help.html
Is the documentation (in progress).
The strengths are they don't have to worry about someone posting in a cleaned fic; only the author can post in a story. It also automatically generates a table of contents and navigation is easy.
You can sort stories by author, title, or date.
I am currently working on spiffing it up a bit (custom colours), making it look more useful (more links, etc), and adding a RSS feed to it so people can live bookmark their favourite stories.
It only needs 3 small database tables, and can easily share a database with something else.
It should be good to go in a few more days.
