It's official

I'm definitely an author. Because I've just caught my stories being plagiarized on this Harry/Hermione site. Same name, all of my Harry Potter stories posted (minus one of them) posted there. The site glitched for a moment giving all of my stories the same posting date which creeped me out for a second because it told me that Missing Her was posted before it was ever written. Then I pressed refresh and the dates made sense.

They say that imitation is a form of flattery, and it could be because I'm already having a shitty day, but fuck, I'm pissed. I contacted the site, so hopefully eveything turns out okay.

It's awful, huh? I'm sorry too about your videos. Did everything work out?

I checked out the community and joined, so if the site doesn't do anything, I plan to make a case. Though, "The Case Against LadySophieKitty" is going to be pretty weird looking. Why couldn't this person make up their own username?

Did everything work out?

Yeah, usually. There's always someone out there that's plagiarizing vids, though. If I looked hard enough, I could find my editing under someone else's name. I save myself heartache and don't look.

stop_plagiarism has helped me in the past with vids. They only do fic stealing now and they are good at it, so good luck.
