I'm out of here

A reported story, from what I can figure out, gets handled the same way as a rejected submission does - it gets bounced back to the author with the generic message related to whatever policy breach has gone on.

If the author does nothing, it stays down. If the author addresses the rejection notice and/or argues their case, it can get reinstated. As I see it, the author will always get a take down reason from the site, and an opportunity to remedy. If they don't bother, that's on them, not the site.

Seems fair to me.

Some people who have had this happen to them have griped about it. "If the story was approved, why was it later taken down because some random reader found it?" Sort of answers it's own question. We are fairly sure that the site can't possibly police it's own content because the job is just too big. Some reader may have the time and inclination to do it for them.

I get that it hurts to go a couple of years or so, and then it gets spotted. The assumption is often, "If it got through once, then it should be forever." That's just not the way Lit chooses to do it.
 
Quick thought - here's a thread about a guy having an emotional breakdown because the moderator won't publish his story because he failed to read the instructions and all he's looking for is some pity and we're cracking jokes that have nothing to do with him. How cold!

Pour it on folks!

Sorry, I guessed something like that. Just unfamiliar with milkman.

Uh-huh. No family resemblance? Milkman.

They still exist, though I only get enough for breakfast - the price keeps going up. And no funky hat any more.

They do exist in parts of the USA, too. My aunt used to get 48 quarts delivered a week, when her kids were teenagers.

Me, too, and I'm 30 years older than you.

I've always been aware of the "milkman" as a kinky folklore trope, but since we never had milkmen showing up at the door it was never something to think about.

Nowadays I suppose it would be the "Amazon" man. Or the local Uber driver. With GPS tracking technology and Amazon's strict time scheduling it would be pretty hard to make the sexy Amazon driver a successful erotic thing, however, unless he was really fast.

I suppose it would give new meaning to the online delivery tracking message: "Your package has been delivered."
 
As a kid, besides the milkman, we had a french onion-selling man, a knife-sharpener, an o'clothes man, a postman, and big strong dustmen and coalmen. No wonder my mother was always happy and smiling.

After milkmen were gone, it was the pizza delivery guy. Amazon really doesn't leave enough time at all. Plumbers are another one, and they do have enough time. Also, arguably as tradesmen, they may have some macho appeal that delivery people just can't muster. I think there have been female plumber stories. Car mechanics have been tried, but man do they have a lot of grease to clean off their hands first.

Uber drivers are like anybody else who driver for a living. Nice for a fantasy, but they usually don't have the social standing to do much unless they pay for it. Female Uber drivers, except maybe in rare cases, are probably not looking at their passengers as pick-up material.

Good points. Maybe the cable installation guy would be the best modern equivalent.

Yes, I forgot about them. Maybe electricians would be the best, because they seem to have "cleaner" jobs than plumbers. Although, people underestimate the skill it takes to do plumbing correctly. Cable installers are sort of in the middle, and they are probably not truly electricians as I would define it.

You've forgotten the pig-bin men. Strange. You could actually smell them coming.

So was the milk man.

Something you might not know, because you're young, and Sting from the Police is older than me, but he did a spell as a milko before he started teaching. Teaching inspired the song, "Don't Stand so Close to Me", but I don't think him being a milkman inspired much in the way of songs.

At least Herman's Hermits are there for us.
