SERIOUSLY?!

So I got this PM on ffnet about this person on harrypotterfanfiction.com posting Broken as their own work, but the link was all fucked up and I freaked out. So, when I calmed down, I IM'd pokeystar and we both started investigating. AND OMG! I FOUND IT!

What the actual fuck?

Ugh, I'm so sorry someone had to do this to you. :(

I'm going to go report it too. HPFF is massive, so I'm hoping more reports will shine some light onto it.

I was sending the email and I got a tweet that it's been taken down, but SERIOUSLY? I'm SO THERE WITH YOU! WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK?!?! I want that person banned.

Unbelievable. Some people have just no shame.

The thing I don't get is, what use is it posting another person's work. They might get tons of reviews, but since they're not the one who wrote the fic, they can't exactly be proud about that. I just don't get it.

Plus, stealing a fic as popular as Broken is just plain stupid. You're bound to get caught.

The link doesn't work. Looks like it's already been taken down. Good.

[inadaze22]

I don't get it either, but its down. I really wanna send a message to that author. REAL BAD. That was so wrong. I mean, who was the GENIUS who thought up that bad ass idea??

Damn, just as I was leaving a killer review, it was taken down.

*pouts*

My bitch mode was all revved up, too.

But, at least it was taken down!

Dude, they nipped that in the bud FAST AS HELL.

WTF????

What is wrong with these people, are they actually so stupid to think no one will notice???

WTF????

Sorry. I'm repeating myself, but SERIOUSLY????

[inadaze22]

I dunno, but it went up TODAY and I got the message about it TODAY. *shakes head* What is WITH people these days???

WOW. That sucks... You should definitely feel violated. I can't believe someone would actually have the guts to do that.

But I just checked the link:
"ERROR locating story meta for psid 271793

Yeah, they nipped it in the bud REAL FAST.

Like I'm impressed.
