Here we go again

Courtesy of renitaleandra, we know that The Potions Master dot net has struck again. I'm sure you remember the wank surrounding "Hermione", the guy, who took over from Azrael in none too kind a fashion and then proceeded to lift stories from other archives to host them there without authors' permission.

Now it is a "Stephanie", claiming a crash that forced "her" to use some old back-up material. Well, I had my doubts that this was the reason, but I just dug up some more: If it had been due to a crash that now all and sundry authors who distanced themselves during the first wank are hosted again, I couldn't be listed under both my pen names now, could I? *grumble* Seeing that I only ever posted a couple of stories on the original Whispers, which I then deleted before the wank even started, I find it hard to believe their crash has suddenly caused my other stories to jump to that archive, with one under a different name.

Oh, if anyone wants to see if their name is on there, I've found a listing of authors: http://index.thepotionsmaster.net/authors.php?list=authors

I'll wait a couple of days after sending off an email to stephanie@thepotionsmaster.net this morning. If there's no reply, I shall spam them with postings that violate their terms.

I'm pretty positive I've heard the name "Stephanie" before as one of the aliases.

and one of the stories I deleted off *before* the wank is there again.

I don't remember the names apart from "Hermione" *snerk*. There are so many authors there who aren't meant to be, sheesh. Does that person have nothing better to do??? The mind boggles.
