I don’t support,

What if a hacker gets into your account? One click could ruin all of your hard work. Or your mouse accidentley slipped and boom, it’s gone.

Maybe you can delete stories with under 700 lines or something?

I support this idea, but I’d like to add on to this suggestion based on what @avebug addressed.

@avebug You raised a very good security risk there. Here are two solutions that I thought of to combat that:

  1. Episode can give users the ability to delete stories. Once you delete them, they will be sent into another section called “Archived”. Archived stories are stories that have been deleted by the user. Once deleted, the story will remain in the archive for 30 days. You can restore a story within the 30 day period. However, once those 30 days have passed by, the story will automatically deleted - permanently. This way, the author can have an uncluttered list of stories without accidental removals of stories and hackers being an issue.

  2. If a story is deleted, a notification should be sent to our e-mail or by text message to confirm that it was actually us who deleted them. Perhaps we could add the 2-step authentication before deleting a story, just like Gmail and the forums have? It will be good for the Writer’s Portal to have security.

Yes that is a good way to ensure it is you personally who has deleted the story, and give you a chance to get it back if you deleted a really good story for haters
