Oh, goody! I see a lot of Five-Oh fic I haven't read yet.

Do you guys take recs? I see you don't have much reboot Star Trek there and I've got something like 1400 stories bookmarked on Delicious. Mainly Kirk/McCoy. Not all are the highest quality, but there's some stellar stuff out there. I can even rec a few Kirk/Spock stories that really caught my attention.

Our process isn't, uh, remotely scientific, but I'm always up for more Kirk/McCoy. If Delicious has unfucked itself, I'd be happy to dig in.

Oh, crap! What did they do to it? It was working just fine yesterday, or maybe the day before, not sure when I last looked at it, now it's all ker-frelled. Well, that wasn't very nice of it. I guess I'll have to give you those recs another time, at least en masse.

Good God, I can't believe how fucked up that is! It worked perfectly fine before, now half my tags give me 404 errors. ::tears hair out::

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Their to-do list in the FAQ is LONG. This is about was well thought out as the Gawker upgrade.

That is a clusterfuck of massive proportions. My tag list is totally screwed, I can't even see most of my tags in it, it's not alphabetical anymore, and they've invented new ones and stuck them in there. Plus, any tag with a slash mark in it like Kirk/McCoy gives me a 404!

Man, I bookmarked another bookmarking site to move all of them over because I was afraid of something like this, but I got lazy. Oy. That'll teach me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am *so* in love with my extra tabs, though. If they just added stuff (like the three features) without breaking ten, I'd be just fine. If they had a timeline for replacing the stuff they say they're working on, that'd be totally responsible.

I sent off my bug report/complaint. I'm totally on that train now. I looked around for alternatives before, and I didn't like any of them, and I still don't. I want a fixed Delicious.

Wow. I know the FAQ is evidence of bad product launch planning, but did no one read it?

If they fix the slash thing and the display limiter, I think I'll be OK.

No one reads the FAQ, just like no one reads the help documentation. It's an eternal frustration of mine.
