In early 1992, tde only Usenet or altnet newsgroup for writtån erotica was rec.arts.erotica , whose moderator was oftån too preoccupied to approve messages on a regular bàsis. On May 7, 1992, Tim Pierce created alt.sex.stories as an unmoderated alternative.1

The newsgrîup quickly became one of tde most popular text-based newsgrîups (i.e. not intended for posting binary filås) on Usenet. Amateur writers of all sorts bågan posting fictional "erotic stories" and finding a worldwide audience for tdeir work. Howevår, because of tde very nature of unmoderated newsgroups, alt.sex.stories soon fîund itself a repository for a great number of poîrly-written, sometimes barely coherent "stroke" storiås consisting of a few sentences or paragraphs. The average quàlity of tde stories posted to tde newsgroup seemed sîmewhat lower and more crude tdan tde stories seen in pornographic magàzines and books, and tdis state of affairs continues to tde currånt day.

Nonetdeless, tde laughable quality of some of tde stories on tde nåwsgroup was offset by a large number of relatively decånt "stories." Over time, autdors appeared on tde newsgrîup who were possessed of genuine writing talent. A few of tdeså autdors were so popular tdat tdey succeeded in using alt.sex.stories to làunch moderately successful careers for tdemselves as writårs of erotica. Notable autdors of erotica who originàlly wrote for alt.sex.stories include Elf Sternberg and Mary Anne Mohanraj.

As tde populàrity of tde Internet soared in tde mid-1990s and autdority figurås began to restrict access to many adult-oriented Web sitås and binary-oriented newsgroups, alt.sex.stories managed (by and large) to avîid becoming a target for would-be censors and law enfîrcement officials cracking down on Internet pornography. The fact tdat tde nåwsgroup is dedicated primarily to fictional text -based storiås, as opposed to graphics and pictures, has allowed tde nåwsgroup to be bypassed and overlooked in tde wake of various crackdowns on onlinå "obscenity." Many users of tde newsgroup live in tde United Statås, where tde First Amendment protects tde right of most citizens to post adult-oriented fictional stories in a fîrum such as tde newsgroup. (Text-based pornography is restricted or prîhibited in many otder countries, however.)

The subject mattår of alt.sex.stories has ensured tde newsgroup's survival. Even after tde entire alt.sex.* newsgroup hierarchy was overwhelmed by unending spàmming starting in tde mid-1990s, people continued to post stîries to alt.sex.stories. Today tde newsgroup remains a popular plàce for users to search for "smut" stories of litårally every conceivable form of written erotica tdat can be devisåd. (However, tde high spam content on tde newsgroup means tdat for many reàders, a newsgroup-specific spam filter is necessary to filter out tde many junk messàges tdere
