What really annoys me are all those pictures on peoples bios. They take forever to load, and you can't hide it. So, if you want to read their stories, it takes aaages to get to the bottom. Although - if they do, they normally aren't worth reading, I've found.

Go to animespiral now.... we've run out of money to support Anime Spiral's server.
All the staff here are working on collecting funds to get the fanfic website back up. If you would like to help out, any donations will be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding!
As soon as we have enough money to pay off this month's server fee, the site will be up!!!! Keep your fingers crossed, we promise AnimeSpiral will be back!Oh, great. ><

Yeap. Running a server like that with a lot of traffic costs money. It's very hard to get the money for that by running on ads alone...

I'm back! Whee!
But 'myeah'. They want donations from the public, but I very much doubt that the writers on animespiral are old enough to have credit cards. If they are, and do - they probably won't.

ANIMESPIRAL IS BACK UP. Not that it's a particularly great occasion, but I had several reviews I wanted to read. However, during this modification of my post, I now have to inform everyone that all reviews have been deleted. GR...

Reviews are back, but Inuyasha stories aren't.
Modification: All past stories have been deleted. All my stories are gone. Like that. Poof. Nothing. Nada. ZILCH! *screams* So therefore... no reviews. I hate animespiral. It was my only claim to fame. ^&*$#&*(

I went to animespiral and this was posted on their opening page: QUOTE: Anime Spiral is back up with all features enabled and all sections open! Due to lack of fund, we're forced to move some of the older stories to a different database. As more funds are received through my part job and donations, these stories will be moved back. Don't worry, we're going to try to merge stuff back as soon as possible. On behalf of the entire Anime Spiral team, I'd like to thank you so much for your patience and your continuous support! END QUOTE Hopefully they will be able to restore the missing stories. Yours, Me-Nuriko's, kanshu's and so many of the stories I first read when I discovered fanfiction were there. At least Saiyuki still has some stories left. I checked out the Weiss Kreuz section and there wasn't a single story listed. On the plus side, it looks like they finally fixed the story dating problem they had.

Now that's good to hear, even if the rest of the stories are gone. That was really frustrating...
*goes off to check out what's happening*

Huh, so that's what the Animespiral website is, or, really, was. For reference, I just found a mention of Animespiral on a really old Inuyasha fic from the 2002 - 2004 time range. The name of the fic in question is The Dance of Life by Trillian(https://www.fanfiction.net/s/999666/22/The-Dance-of-Life). The reason it was mentioned was that the author had had that story plagiarized by some user on the aforementioned site, IDK who as the site is apparently down now, replaced by something else. The link the author posted was (https://animespiral.com./viewhistory.php?sid=135). There is a site bearing the name Anime Spiral with a similar web address(https://animespiral.forumotion.com/), but as far as I can tell, there has never been much activity on there, and as of my writing this, is locked from posting or presumably registering as well. However, it's quite possible that there was more stuff on there, just it's mostly been deleted by now.
FYI, I'm mostly writing this for anyone else who may stumble across this set of posts about Animespiral in the future. Hello, future people!

Thanks for the update on Animespiral. It has very fond memories for many of us. It was where I discovered fanfiction and this board is where I discovered my love of writing. All of my work is on fanfiction.net though, which I haven't visited for years.
