No response from Literotica

I tried that already. No luck.

Here's what Literotica says
- basically, give it 15 days in Pending
- my take is, wait that 15 days and if it's still pending after 15 days, delete it completely, resubmit and add a Note to Admin telling them what you have done. (ie your story sat in pending 15 days+, you deleted and are resubmitting). There seem to be some issues here that are affectimg a lot of people but with no other info available, we just gotta go with what we know and deletimg and resubmitting seems to be working for a lot of people - but give it that time in pending first - and DON'T jump in, open and resubmit - that just sends you to the back of the queue again.

If your story is in your Pending Stories folder and has been pending for fewer than 15 days, please do not click on or alter the submission in any way as that may further delay its publication***.

We are working to get caught up as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience, and for sharing your stories!

*** To Clarify: Simply clicking on a pending work will not send it back to the queue. However, we have had numerous cases where an author believed that they had "only clicked" on a pending submission but in fact inadvertently saved or otherwise altered it - thereby sending it to the back of the queue. For this reason, we recommend not clicking on or otherwise opening a submission form unless you intend to make changes.

So I just did "most" of that. I deleted a story that had been pending over 15 days and created a new submission for the story. I did not include a Note to Admin (that's the "most" part I mentioned).

About 2½ weeks ago I deleted 4 pending stories and resubmitted all 4 of them. One was approved within 24 hours and the rest are still sitting in pending. This time I'm trying with only one of those pending stories. Just to clarify, this story has been pending in 3 separate instances for a total of over 40 days (note: the longest period was about 21 days).

I'll post here with the result.

The more I see these posts from other people, and from what I experience myself, I do believe some stories fall through the cracks and the reviewers never see them (because of the antiquated CMS).

I still have one non-erotic story pending (the submission date was automatically changed by the CMS and a person replied that it had to do with meeting the 1st set of criteria, an automatic process), however a poem that I wrote yesterday (about the writer/reader dynamic) was approved today and will post tomorrow.

Stories in pending,
Waiting in silent shadows—
Unseen in limbo.
