Protect your journal entries

There is a site that is copying whole journal entries and fanfics and posting them on their blog and has been since 2011 but only providing the original link not asking permission nor descriminating Between journal posts and fanfiction.

It seems to use a bot to collect certain tagged fics and has already taken fic from rare-pairing.

as a result I'm probably going to lock all my communities to members only as a protection measure. I have also contacted live journal to see if anything can be done.

I've posted the site below please check if your work is there and if you're not happy you can request that they take it down.

Thanks to aprilraven there is a site where you can report this
I've linked at the top of this post.

EDIT: It seems they're using the tag fan fiction or variations of it, myself and another mod are looking into changing this tag.

I have also used the complaint form on the reposting site and asked for this community and others I moderate to be placed in the exclusion list permanently. They seem to be slow at responding but my guess is that they're now having to deal with a multitude of complaints.
