    The author of Fury of the Hellspawn and other stories. I think at FF.net, he's under Apocalypso-33.

    Also, it wasn't even Vim's story that was plagiarised (Witches' Secret, you know you read it). Some guy kept reposting it under different names and everyone was outraged. Especially when he stated the story was crap (it is).

    Successful troll was successful.

    Er... who?

    Ah, read the link to his story he posted here. Seriously... if someone did bother to harass the guy I'd be surprised. A raid on ginnypotter or something, while stupid, I could see if folks were that bored. Harassing a really bad author? Not so much.

    Lol, 99% of any 'request' he makes will get laughed at. Most media will report him for being a pedophile writing about 13 year old harems.

    This topic doesn't deserve it's own thread.

    You pretty much have no rights on FF work as it is, trying to get people to enforce other people posting people's works will have no effect.

    Ha - aw fuck. That JoeHundredaire bastard got my Hero Trilogy pulled from ff.net about 4 years ago. He reported me for 'excessively long author's notes'. I didn't bother posting the stories back up until a year ago.

    On topic, ff.net will be fine. Let the guy piss and moan and fade into obscurity.

    Scat-Muncher! Man those were good times. I still read those threads when I'm lulz-starved.

    On Topic: If he honestly thinks that he can get anything done with this, he's beyond idiotic.

    Edit: I read through his thread, and I'm disappointed. Yes his writing was shit, but only about 3 posts made any attempt at constructive crit beyond the obvious "Go kill yourself". No wonder he hates us. He made an honest (though horrifically bad) attempt at self-improvement and we didn't help him like we were supposed to.

    I seriously still thought this guy was dead. Why is he posting again? Is he a Zombie FF writer now?

    I could care less what he does, as well. Like he could every even attempt to take legal action against FF.Net. Its laughable.

    "Like we were supposed to"?

    We don't have an obligation to help anyone. If we help them, it's because we graciously choose to do so.

    Yes, but we do have obligation not to flame as he did post his fic in WbA. It's against the rules of this site.
