Literotica will rip off your author rights

[XXplorher]

Yup.

I've got another very popular series under a differnt author name.

That ownership got compramised. And Lit has done literally ZERO to do about it. I sent near a dozen emails to all three options... nuthin.

We're not friends anymore.

I'd threaten to sue, but they know I won''t... given the subject matter.


In any case. This is not your friend. (Unless you prefer the rape kink, of course)

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

Are you one of the "elites" now?




*chuckle*

 

[XXplorher]

No. I'm one of the ripped off.


'She' could contact me now and be like, "Oh, jeepers, we dont know what happened. It's so weird that we never responded."

What am I gonna do? Nuthin. They know that.

Thing is... I MIGHT do somethin. If I lose on this other thing? I will.

 

[XXplorher]

Threats!

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

That's some funny, funny XXplorher and Byron's reply on this topic is spot-on...

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

I was using elite in the way that you used it, to show that you're "special..."




You should "gow" on to bed now...

You're a long time member and deserve respect for that, hope it works out.

Ripped up > Ripped off

 

[CandiCame]

That's horrible. You've already asked yourself the question that you need answered. What are you gonna do?

 

[JD_Cockefeller]

Author is not a right, it's a priviledge.

 

[XXplorher]

Let's make 1 thing perfectly clear, 4/4...

I AM special.

I'm most definitely unclear why you would make avatar my most favorite character ever - and not understand, what he represents.

Cuz for certain, he is not an arrogant creature...

He doesn't assume all that much.

Perhaps you go watch it again?


I love him a lot. Because I saw that I'll never ever be anywhere near that good. And I needed to know I should be better. Eternally try, to get close to that kind of Elite a man.

I don't think you get it.

and that upsets me.



++++++++++++++++++

To be clear: None of XXplorher's stuff was ripped off. It's stories I penned under another moniker that create the legit concern.

You guys are posting your little musings on a free porn site. You're not authors, you haven't been published, you're not special. In fact, if someone is willing to take the time to copy your little stories and post them somewhere else, you should feel flattered.

Johnny's bringing the cold hard facts up in here

 

[Saint Peter]

Yeah!

It is not like they are Penthouse Stories or anything.

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

Yeah!

You're published too!

Just the fax ma'am...

This is true.

That's some pretty good harsh reality, mate. However, I wasn't discussing the right to... display.

Ownership rights. First refusal.

Assuming things do go well, LIT has a very assured aggreement that they have absolutely NO right to our property. Were we to claim it as exclusive? They will honor that right.

Again, XX has no issue with any of my stories. I removed them and they honored it. Under the other moniker, which was/is especially reactive... I've lost ownership.

It's not okay.

It's not he understanding here. At all.

Look around the GeeBee... There is copyrighted material posted here every minute of every day. Bitching about Literotica not enforcing your copyright would be a bit hypocritical, no?

^^This.

Besides, once you put something on the internet, it's gone. Out of your hands. Free for the taking. Unless you have a publishing house behind you or your own personal fortune to spend on lawsuits that will go nowhere.

Ban AJ and Vetty and 80% of the copyright issues go away. Just sayin'. Carry on.

 

[4est_4est_Gump]

This is true.

A man of letters!

 

[XXplorher]

I'm bitching about their complete refusal to even adress the situation.

I kept it in my pants for, I guess maybe 6months now. And I pulled my pants down around 5am, so here it is, eh.

For reals, it's absolutely NOT okay. I support the exposure LIT can afford, But do not do that under false conditions. (Which isn't even what happened with me. Manu wanted to fuck me, cuz I'm a dick, so they fucked me.)

You are correct that the exposure afforded here is to be cherished.

But they're doing quite well with your need to be seen...

Let's not make it akin to a pimp and a whore, eh?



-End discussion, mate. I need to leave it alone.

What do you expect them to do? Spend time and money chasing down the person who cut and paste your stories to a different website? They aren't your agent.
