The site also has the habit of logging me out, and Chrome on the phone cannot verify the site ID, or get a secure connection.

Hmmm yes... I noticed that. I read a piece and when I reached the end, I was kicked out. Good thing I didn't happen to be typing a review or else I'd probably have had to retype it.

We can grandfather some content in. Maybe for the next week. If you want that, let me know which group you want that for.

You can also do the other alternative. The best way to publish select chapters to a different points group is to create another version of the manuscript and only publish those chapters to the points group you want. That way, you only have to pay for those chapters.

I'd like to see what consensus comes in on the matter as other users become acclimatized. I'll bring this up again once more have weighed in on it.

Once you start a group and decide points/no points, it can't be changed. You can delete the group and start over. To delete, go to the group and then Members and delete yourself. Then you can recreate it.

Ya, this is a major problem to posting. My costs to list my existing work in ONE points group is approximately 1300 pts.

You might consider grandfathering existing posts to list in points groups for a brief duration just while everyone gets settled in. OR give us the ability to post only specific chapters to new groups. That way, we can pay for only new content to appear.

What I mean is, my two current WIPs are in chapters 26 and 22.

My cost to post two chapters (27 and 23 alone) are artificially high because I must post 1-26 and 1-22 as well.

Admittedly, I could just create new novels and start at those chapters, posting links back to the originals. But this solution will make me feel hollow inside,

Hmm unexpected problem. Can't add my current projects to this group because it's points-based.

The site's like "It will cost you 500 points" to post here. Ouch!
