(updated 12/20/98)
On behalf of the administration, helpers, and authors, we thank you for
coming to visit our library. In order to make your visit productive, this
site guide has been developed. Below you will find a description of the
various directories at the A.S.S. FTP site as well as a general site guide.
NOTE: As of 12/20/98, this file is in desperate need of being updated. As
soon as time allows, this will be done. Until then, use it as a basic
guide and browse on your own to find something you like. Users with
web access will best benefit from visiting our web site at the above
address.
/Incoming - this is the directory in which all uploads (contributions) should
be placed. Inside this directory resides a directory named
"Compressed". If you wish to upload compressed (zip, arj, rar,
etc.) files, you are more than welcome to. We simply ask that you
do not mix them in with the "ready to download" uploads.
/Pub - aside from the /Incoming directory, this is the main directory.
Inside are more than 16,000 stories (and counting) for your pure
enjoyment. Below is a listing of the directories in /Pub
" /Authors - The A.S.S. FTP Site proudly houses its fine contributing authors
in this directory. Here you should find the latest, complete
works of all the authors/editors who have an account on the
A.S.S. FTP Site and contribute regularly. If you're looking
for someone's latest and greatest, this is the place to go. If
you are an author, PLEASE contact us. Read the information in
the text file in this directory for more information.
" /Collections - This directory hosts the collections of Elijah the Bearded,
Kristen Becker, Old Joe (Joseph Clayon) and LEXtext.
" " /Eli.The Bearded - Elijah is the moderator of the newsgroup
Alt.Sex.Stories.Moderated You may find the stories he
posts to this newsgroup in this directory as follows:
" /Alt.Sex.Stories.Moderated - The stories here are sorted into
subdirectories by year. Index files are
available for the Year97 directory
(full-in.dex) and the zipped volumes
(index.1 - index.63) These stories are
NOT categorized.
" /stories - Almost all these stories are in HTML format. It is best to
view files in this directory from a web browser such as
Netscape. Some have pictures associated with them that
will only appear with the text when using such a browser.
These stories ARE categorized by subject content.
" /todo - These are stories Elijah is currently working on sorting.
" " /Kristen's_Collection - Here we extremely proud to offer the complete
collection of Kristen Becker. Kristen is a quite
attractive (see
/pub/Authors/Kristen78/kristen78.jpg) collector of
erotic literature. She frequently posts files from
her collection to Alt.Sex.Stories. Stories in
her collection are located in the !Kristenx dirs.
Other stories of Kristen's (not in "Kristen's
Collection") are in the book shelf directories,
sorted by letter.
" " /Old_Joe's_Collection - this is Old Joe's collection for the most part.
Through a tremendous amount of time and effort,
he has organized everything into categories for
your reading enjoyment.
" /Interesting_Reading - If you aren't in the mood for a story, but would
rather educate yourself sexually in other ways,
this is a good place to so. For example, do you
want to read about how far men ejaculate? How about
one woman's description of the best way to perform
cunnilingus? This and more can be found here.
" /New_from_A.S.S - Files in this directory and its sub dirs are works
"recently" obtained from Alt.Sex.Stories by the site
administration. They will remain in the directory for a
minimum of a week or as long as it takes to get them
sorted.
These stories usually deal with teens, preteens, or rape,
as that is the interests of the site administration (hint
if you want to REALLY please us, upload texts of this
nature)
" /Poetry - Yes, erotic poetry has a place on the A.S.S. FTP site. There
isn't a lot, but if you want to contribute, please do so. An
email to the administration at admin@asstr.org will ensure
your submission promptly makes it to the poetry directory.
" /Site_Info - This directory contains files relating to this site and
Alt.Sex.Stories in general. Currently, the files are:
ASSFAQ.TXT - a list of the A.S.S. story abbreviations
Old_Joe's_Guide_to_ASS.txt - Written, compiled, and edited by
the man himself, this is Old
Joe's guide to Alt.Sex.Stories
Site_Guide.txt - this file; your guide to the A.S.S FTP Site
filelist.zip - A complete list of all files on the site,
including their location. To view this file
you must first unzip it using a PKWare
compatible unzip utility.
" /Sorted_Stories - this is where the majority of the stories are located.
The stories in this sub directory are categorized into
two subdirectories:
" - Sorted_by_Author - stories here are sorted by author using the
filename scheme <Author's_Name>.<Title_Name>
Authors with a reasonable amount of works have
their own directory. Stories by unknown authors
are located in the Unknown_Author directory
" /Utilities - If you need a program to actually view the stories once you
get them, this is the directory for you. The administration
at the A.S.S. FTP Site has put extensive time into a set of
FREE utilities collectively known as the StoryUtils. This is
a set of MS-DOS programs (they were developed under Windows
and will consequently run under any windows version with no
problem) that will do all the bookmarking for you. They
remember what you read and where you stopped. A must have for
avid readers. Full support for the utilities is available,
also at NO CHARGE.
Additionally, we are a licensed distributor for the most
popular Windows FTP client - CuteFTP. Here you can always
find the latest version.
