I have seen the story does not exist a few times since I have been removing stories of under 13 year old subjects---but I have not run across removed by authors request notice---but still just because someone does this for a special reason or two does that then make it a blanket policy? and I am sure I am not the only one who has not seen the removed by authors request notice---I do notice that not all authors who have their stories published are active in the forum---could you perhaps post a url to one of those removed by authors request notices---please ---I am not trying to be a smart ass I am just trying to get information that I do not know.

I do know I went to bat for one author and got his stories removed but that did not make it a blanket policy. And I am not sure that the previous owner meant for it to be a blanket policy either.
