would it be too absurd to suggest a greater amount of listing parameters (story length, etc.)?

You mean, in addition to "by subject category", "by newest", "by highest rated" / "most views"?

I agree. Chyoo could use a few more views to make navigation easier.

May I suggest:

All stories alphabetically (with a better paging system?)

All stories chronologically (ditto)

Authors by most prolific

Stories by time of most recent thread addition, latest first

Complex (SQL-like) views are likely to be not hard, since you've fairly obviously got an RDBMS there under the hood. That would allow views like:

All stories with more than 10 pages with a new thread this week.

All stories with "flower" in the title.

All stories an author has contributed threads to

Or even:
All stories by authors whose stories I've contributed threads to.

And not much harder (another DB table or two):
"My favorite stories", listed with most recent thread activity first.

well, there's nothing more to do but wait...i hope the admins prove as diligent as the site is ambitious.

Agreement

No question that additional search options would help keep track of stories on the site better. Being able to search by author is the function that I would most like to see.

The other searches that Zingiber suggests would also be great!
