The absolute ball-ache of posting pre-AO3, my God. Didn't you have to delete completely if you'd fucked something up and start again? I seem to remember doing that once or twice.

That fucking code was as robust as the JournalFen servers. Holy crap, it was a nightmare.

Was the old site one of astolat's automated archives where you uploaded your own fic, or did you have to get the mods to do it? I was on a few fandom sites that used the latter and you had to send your files to the mods to upload, and god forbid you later spotted a typo or error as you'd have to send a new file and beg the mods to switch them over.

You could upload your own file, but if you made an error you'd have to ask the mods to replace it.

Per Fanlore, it ran on Automated Archive. (I never had to send things to the mods to upload to any of the Automated Archive archives I posted to back in the day, at least not that I can recall, but my memory's spotty. You'd think, having actually run things on Automated Archive, I'd remember that shit, but that was so long ago.)
