I moved the website to a new host, which I think will be more tolerant of the content this website hosts. Nevertheless, I do want to take a moment to remind everyone that the stories and content posted here MUST follow website rules, as it it not only my policy, but it is the policy of the hosts that permit our website to run on their servers. We WILL continue to enforce the rules, especially critical rules that, if broken, put this sites livelihood in jeapordy.
Thank you for all the nice comments, guys. Your feedback and encouragement are really appreciated. It saddens me to announce that this story is being put on ice for an indefinite period of time.
Seeing as how this tale was still in its early stages of development and many of my regular readers were in the process of catching up to it, the fact that it is now wholly unreadable and that all apostrophes, quotation marks, etc, have been garbled into chains of weird letters and symbols, makes it senseless for me to continue while half the readers are stuck midway and with no possibility of catching up. I will only be able to resume work on Jake's narrative if a fix that restores the original text is found.
If circumstances change and a fix restoring the original text is found, I'll be letting you guys know.
Thanks again for all the support you've shown.
I was wondering if we could use something like ChatGPT to edit the corrupted text. I don’t think it’ll work as it is a problem inherent to the migration. @bondagefreak
I have good news, guys. I know many of you didn't get the chance to read the most recent chapters (Chapters 19 & 20) due to their being published mere hours before the forum crash, so I'm happy to let you know that the two most recent chapters are now fully restored! Thanks to @Subboi's suggestion and @socjuc's help and coaxing, I was able to use an AI tool to unscramble the incorrect encoding errors and restore them back to their original state.
I will be restoring everything from Chapter 1-18 over the course of the next few days and will be letting you guys know once the restoration is complete. In the meantime, be sure to enjoy the most recent chapters if you've not already done so. Chapters 19 & 20 are located on the previous page.
Special thanks to @Subboi and @socjuc for their help and suggestions.
