The real life vs online fantasy life what a dangerous two edge sword it is. We might need to start up a new topic (if it is not made as of yet) How to open up in real life about this site if doing it in secret. Sometime people will do things that will cause drama such as asking for or giving personal e-mail address once a connection has been establish to doing video sex chats when their panther is away. We all have to remember sometimes you have to comfort what is making you unhappy or missing in your relationship to make it better...that is if you want to make it better. If not do stuff that will cause headaches and problems just in the end everyone will lose.

Every story moderator on this site has earned their place on the team. They know what the job entails and they do it well.
If you have a specific issue, take it through the proper channels. This is not the place for it.
Liz thank you for your post. Just one thing The question "which improvements or features would you like to see added?" is a very open ended question. I ask this, Is the edits done by the Story mods is a service for the site and is an area that can be improve on. If so then I have every right to air it in this forum as an improvement to the site.
Now the question could be written better such as What features would you like to see be added to the site? This would be a better question and not too open ended.

If your friend was not happy with the correspondence from the moderator, then they could've contacted a senior member of the team to raise their concerns. I don't feel that this is the correct place to air concerns. If your friend wishes to make a complaint, please ask them to go through the proper channels by using the contact form.

The question was ask "Which improvement or features would you like to see added?" I do believe this question is too open ended and not truly base to a certain area to this site so this feedback for improvement should be looked at. This would be an improvement to the interaction between story mods and the writers.
I understand the site only wants the best for people to read or stories to be posted on here and yes there are other sites with relax rules for posting. Just that if the site wants the best then the writers should expect the best feedback also. If this is a touchy subject then I am sorry for the ones who thinks so. I will take it as my posting on here as noted and let it go after this. I did not want to start an argument over the subject with others just giving my input for improvement to the site and the people that are on here.
I will remind the story mods not all are bad story mods just there are some in the ranks that are and could cause a person such as my friend to quit this site and to write. This also might explain one reason of a high turn over rate on the site too not sure just a thought on that.

There are a vast number of authors that would tell you that the voluntary help that the moderating team give is nothing but supportive and helpful. When I first submitted my own stories I was not a great writer. It has only been through my stories being rejected, the guidance of the moderating team, and fellow authors help that I have increased my skills as a writer. I will always be grateful for someones help in my self-improvement.
When I was asked to moderate I saw it as a way to give back for all the help I had been given. The moderating team is there to assist authors and maintain a brilliant standard for the readers of the site.
It's always been my experience that you should give something a go and judge from your own experience.
I don't think its asking a lot that authors take time and effort to produce a story that the readers will enjoy. If you didn't feel the effort was worth it, then perhaps there is another site that would better suit?
Its not that the rules are bad and I not saying the story mods are bad either, just that I am asking the comments that a friend has shown me were kind of rude or smart ass way. I do believe that there are better ways in answering or giving feedback to another. Sometimes we all forget that e-mails or messages are cold contacts without a voice to show emotions. A feed back asking "is English or native langue if so I feel sorry for you" is this acceptable?

Story Moderators are not editors. It is not our responsibility to get your story up to site standards—that lies solely with yourself.
If your story, for whatever reason, does not meet our standards, then the moderators will explain to you why and often offer useful advice to help you rectify this. We have a bank of external and internal resources that aim to help writers improve which we can and will direct you to.
If you have had specific problems with any of the moderators, this is not the forum to discuss it. Please use the Contact Us page, contact one of the Site Administrators, or even send me a PM.
If you have issues with the technical process of submitting stories, please be more specific. In my opinion, it's quite a straightforward process.
I have not sent a story in as of yet just heard the feedback from others of the process of going through it. Now I do believe this site only wants the best to submit stories just that we are not all great writers. So I do believe the stories are only as good as the Story mods are and some could think they are doing a services while not helping at all. If you feel like I am attacking rest a sure I am not. Now could LustStories.com relax on the rules or even better revise the rules that is up to them.

I would like to see an easier process for story edits and better feedback from the editors that gives proactive feedback and not smart ass remarks.

I do think the mobile page needs work on it. In theory it should be a smaller image of the actual web site. I would like to see a video chat option on here that would be neat to have. Also a Google Hangout session on topics like how to write or any topics that the site and authors would like to talk about.

There are many reason why a person comes and goes off of any site when it on here or else where. It could be that the topics that are being discuss with people, to someone not telling the ones in their real life and keeping it from them, or the stories that one wants to be write until they find out there is a process of rules to go by, or someone reading the stories getting board. The turn over rate might seem to be high vs. the people that actual staying is more. I would like to see those numbers play against each other just to know which weights more.
