The account of a poster named SandySeeker was recently deleted. Over the past five years, I contributed a LOT of chapters towards his/her stories, and I'm kind of pissed that I suddenly lost all of that work that I put in. Is there any way at all to recover these stories so I can at least back them up on my computer?

No, there is not.

This is why the site recommends that you always keep a copy of your work on your own computer. With interactive story chapters, you should be keeping a copy as you go.




Hope that helps.

Damn shame. Sandyseeker had my favourite collection of stories. Your contributions were great FC!

Thank you! I always appreciate any feedback at all.

I agree about SandySeeker. Classic collection of transformation stories. Probably my favorites ever, and now they're gone. :(

There seem to be a number of interactive stories that have been deleted approx 10 days ago or so, among them

Pity!
Have all the authors/owners left this site?

It's impossible to say whether the authors have left the site or simply deleted these stories, especially since the link does not provide any usernames.

Two of those interactives belonged to the aforementioned user Sandyseeker who has left Writing.com. The last one, Gypsy, belonged to user mikecrandall who appears to also be gone from the site.


Sorry for reviving an old thread. If anyone is interested, I wrote a story that takes place in SandySeeker's "Grellstone" universe.

Thanks! D'oh! I can't believe that I didn't think of this a year ago! So far, I have found a handful of archived chapters, but only a handful.

Role Rewriter (seemed to be written by DatWeirdOne) seemed had been deleted in the July to August of 2017, so as the account of DatWeirdOne, did anyone know what happened?

The account and the item no longer exist. No further information is available.







Hope that helps.

Why doesn't someone just revive the Grellstone stories like how someone did with The Role Swapper? I would but I don't have a paid account.
