Recently a few minor changes have been made to the Administration at Giantessworld; most notably that EmmaGear and myself have been brought on to help out with tagging old stories and doing general site support! To that end, we've recently revamped the support system, getting a new e-mail address that all Admins have access to. This means that getting in touch with one of us for any reason should be a lot faster and more efficient than ever before! If you have a comment about the site, PLEASE use the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of the page and one of us will address your comment as soon as humanly possible. Thanks a lot!
Oh, we'll also be making MUCH more use of the front page now. Expect a new poll every so often, along with actually making use of the "Featured" section of the front page.

oh hai!
Nice to see someone is in the driver's seat and now maybe we can have some new polls and whatnot instead of that Avatar movie poll from like 5 years ago. :)
NOBODY EVER VOTED IN THAT POLL
That blows my mind. I mean, I saw it day after day and I assumed surely SOMEBDOY had voted in it but in all the years it was up it recieved NO VOTES.
Anyway our new polls are much more successful and awesome so go CHECK 'EM OUT.
In relation to UHF comment, there does seem to be quite a bit of inconsistency between the skins. The home pages are different for each one and adverts are not displayed on the giatessword, unlike 2 and 3. Also, on 2 and 3 I can switch between skins anywhere where are on 1 I have to go to my profile area to do that. There is also no way to switch between the mobile site and the regular site.
I remember raising these issues, and others, a while ago in an e-mail conversation with Jacksmith and he said he's pass on my comments. I'm sure Asukafan2001 will do something eventually but updates are very few. I've been on here since 2010 and not much has changed.
That is because the "giantessworld" skin is only being kept around because a small percentage of the user base uses it, and i see no need to force them to use an alternate skin. However its not supported anymore. Hence why the poll hasn't been updated.
Tinyone, people did vote in the poll orginally, however since its not a supported feature I dont backup the poll data and its not retained on the server databases for extended periods of time. When regular server maintence is performed any vote data gets wiped.
I think it would greatly simplify the process of maintaining the site to just stick to one skin and make that one be the best it can possibly be rather than divide the focus up among multiple skins which aren't maintained very well. Yeah it is fun to have multiple skins to choose from, but at the end of the day skins really aren't that important. Its the stories that are what this site is all about.
You should show definitions for everything. All size roles, round robin, etc.

Gosh, you are just awfully cool.
