OTOH, their Invitation Code blocking is less than iron clad. I can peek behind the curtain a bit.

I send you a PM with a Invitation Code for the beta site of ffnet that I got for entering said beta site. It seems it'll expire in 24 hs.

Other things I notice right away:
- The level of 'everything is javascript' is extremely high. Like, each page is +80% Javascript and maybe 20% HTML--story and author links are all JS clickables, not actual HTML links.
- It looks like the story ID numbers are changed to an 18 char alphanumeric and there's a similar new chapter ID.
Yeah, the new site seems pure JS everywhere, or at least in the story chapters.
