Bury story feature
We're thinking about implementing a "bury story" feature for truestorysox. This would mean stories that have a certain number or (more likely) percentage of "meh" votes would be hidden by default, but still expandable. Users would need to expand the story in order to read it. What do you think?

SXSW sex stories
This week is the start of SXSW. SXSW Music, Film and Interactive festivals fill Austin, TX to the brim with primarily young people from all over the country. We've had one sex story from SXSW and we're sure there are plenty of others; probably tons of stranger and public sex stories. Post yours!

Pagination issue resolved
We had a problem with the pagination on our main page not working for a couple days. It had to do with us improving the speed of the site. Now both issues are resolved and the site is running faster and the pagination works. Sorry if it cause anyone any problems!

Improved "top stories" page
Our top stories page is improved! You can now page through the results as far as you like instead of being limited to the first 10. Enjoy!

Design decision: category on top?
We've come to a difficult design decision today: would users prefer a category declaration on the top of the story as opposed to on the bottom?
Are there stories in certain categories you would avoid? We thought there might be, but the more we read of stories, the more we find that we enjoy a lot of things we didn't think we would enjoy - even things we know we don't enjoy in visual porn. The world of literature changes things though - we've been turned on numerous times now by stories that don't match up with our sexual orientation or even fetish ones that might normally be turn-offs. We've heard from other users with the same experience and have yet to hear from one who said "yuck I wish I hadn't read that".
We'd love if you would weigh in on the subject.
