Here we go again

[lady_karelia]

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.

Almost all of my stories posted at TPP are now posted at Whispers, and they're incorrectly rated to boot (last I checked I hadn't written any NC-17 work...). I emailed "Stephanie" and asked that my pieces be taken off. Thank you so, SO much for letting us know, dear! *glomp* If he/she don't take my stuff down soon... *cue angry symphony*

If he/she/it doesn't take our stuff down, I shall have to make up a sockpuppet on there and post something that violates their TOS as well as embarrasses them. *shrug* Such idiots... did they really think they can get away with stealing???
