Nothing and no one will be left behind...and the submission guidelines will stay the same ( basically..Sam and Jack centered, try to check your spelling..and be nice to Carter :-))
Why are we doing this ?...
We are combining the best from both sites..They have a lot more content and much..much better graphics...Ours are a bit..spartan to say the least..
We've managed to have a configuration with a reliable uptime record, while they've had issues..so after much discussion, we figured out that it made more sense for everyone to combine both sites in one great site that gave all the authors and readers a nice, reliable home to work with...
We all get a better looking site with more content that does not act up...
In 'SG-1speak' we're more like the alpha site, while they're more like the SGC...so the only 2 changes you'll see on this side will be more content and better graphics..everything else will stay the same...
There will be no downtime on this site as a result of the merger...
Keep posting ...
Thanks

Here is the announcement that went out on the other site ( I'm Siler over there..:-))
(NOTE: The posting on JackandSamForever.com is open and available....we're fine...keep posting...)

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
ATTENTION ALL AUTHORS AND READERS!!!!
In the near future, Sam and Jack Always will be merging with Sam and Jack Forever. The owners of both sites realize it's redundant to have 2 sites that are basically for the same purpose. Also, there have been major issues with the Sam and Jack Always site with uploading fics. It was discovered by Siler of S/J Forever that the hosting company had conflict issues with the efiction software.
So after much discussion, we've decided to merge the sites into one GREAT Archive! Now this won't be taking place for a while yet, but when it does happen, there shouldn't be a long down time (perhaps 24-48 hours total). We'll know more by the end of the week/beginning of next week. In the mean time, it has been suggested that no new uploads be allowed. So the upload feature will be taken off line for the time being.
Those that wish to have their fics published, may I suggest that you join the Sam and Jack Always Yahoo list http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/samandjackalways/ or the SJNC17 yahoo list
http://tv.groups.yahoo.com/group/samjack17plus/
So Thank you all for your support, patience and understanding. We hope that this merge will be a happy ending for all the authors, readers and site management.
Have a great one!!

Please sign the petition...
============================Everyone knows by now, and it has already been written on this forum.
But repeating things helps, most of the times.
So let's get going, campers... it's time to save our show! They have
given so much to us: hours of entertainment, something nice to think
about, something to gives us a break from Real Life, and, last but not
least, so many new friends, met at conventions or just over the
internet. So now it's time for us to give them something back. Even if
you're not the greatest fan of the newest seasons (personally, I like
them!), even if you prefer Atlantis (I LOVE it), help! I too miss RDA,
and am a shipper, but we can write and email to save the show and add
"hey, BTW, you know... bringing back RDA could get the ratings
higher!", even though it was HIS choice to leave so he could stay with
Wylie. Or even if you just want to help out, for friendship towards
other fans, or for whatever reason.
You can easily sign THE petition
http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/Stargate/index.html
and, if you want, send your e-mails to:
feedback@scifi.com
or: mgmonline@mgm.com
or write here:
NBCUNI.COM FEEDBACK
100 Universal City Plaza
Universal City, CA 91608
Or to whoever you think can help. Get everyone you know to do the
same. They might win, but we're not going without a fight.
Love you all, campers!
Francy from Italy (aka Seiya the leaper/camper), who's starting to
feel the Citizen Joe syndrome!

Fixed the visual icons ( still have an issue with some of the AOL ones)
Three next big things...
1. Fill the character bios
2. Put pictures up for the categories
3. Tackle the additional skins ( we need more shippy skins...this after a S/J site is it not ?)
Disk space wise...lots of room left...we have almost 100 stories and barely consumed 3GB of disk...that's like 5 CDs..
Bandwith wise...again, we're in good shape..lots and lots of room to play
Thanks

Hello....We're in the process of getting the site up....this a combined effort with VegasBarbie and others to give SG-1 fanfict writers a nice home to play in....Most, if not all of us on this site are S/J shippers...so expect the stories to be S/J friendly
Have fun....
