We have stories ion the site, by an author who approached me and asked me to host them. Today he sent me a peremptory note "Please take my stories down." This despite the notice on the site about copyright and story placement: http://iomfats.org/misc/copyright.html that says simply that once I take a story it stays unless I decide myself to remove it.
He does not like that, and is stamping his foot. He "Wants them taken down today" because he is "No longer wanting to be gay" and thus does not want his name associated with gay stories.
I am having a minor rant. I feel used by someone who wanted 15 minutes of fame, and then decied he didn't want to play after all.
I have currently told him that my desire to assist his wishes is in inverse proportion to the lack of consideration shown. I used shorter words.
In any case things like "The Wayback Machine" will have archived his work. Google probably has it for all time, too, in its cache.
I have to say that it is not the best work the site has ever seen, but it had a purpose, and it had enough about it to catch my imagination. He even put two editors to trouble in making it actually work because it was in a dreadful shape when he asked me to host it.
