also, commenting out the line with FanFiction.net didn't help anyways....
Shouldn't that be "publisher" not "site"? That's what I use to change the publisher look in the title page.

Short answer: yes, replace_metadata lines are checked against everything that they might apply to and adding more numerous and more complex lines can cause noticeable slowdowns.

I believe the practical limit is somewhere that I would call "waaaay beyond reasonable". Because there are regulars here who routinely use setups that I would call "waaaay beyond reasonable".
Yeah, I was actually thinking about doing something waaaaay waaaaaay beyond reasonable, but now that I know, I won't. I don't want FFF to download one fic for 5 hours.

Also, just wanted to add that https://archive.skyehawke.com/ seems to be down for good.

EDIT: Another two things. Sorry for being a pain and a bother.

1. FFF seems not to collect ratings from ncisfiction.com. Is there a way i can fix it? Example: https://www.ncisfiction.com/viewstory.php?sid=6625
2. Is there a way to delete certain words from descriptions (summaries) of fics?
