Request/Query 1:

As FanFiction beta, I am always reading 'the reviews' as a way to gauge the story's success, and reader reactions are invaluable to see if the intentions of the author worked.

I use StoryMaster for this, but I was wondering if downloading the FanFiction reviews using the URL might also be possible. Writers and betas find this information invaluable.

Request/Query 2:

Sometimes a story gets pulled story, and I get the dreaded 'bad update', which is fine.

I am particularly frustrated, however, when an author 'tricks' the system by replacing chapters with just one sentence. This way the author keeps their chapter reviews posted, but the original text is erased/overwritten, leaving a 'strawman doc'.

Is there a way to have some sort of trigger that shows the 'new update' on FanFiction Downloader plugin has less (wordcount/ kbs/?) than the prior update, to prevent this inadvertent 'erasing'?

P.S. Thank you for making this program such a joy.
