Comment on Lonely Hunters

    Hi there! Yeah, someone on Tumblr let me know too. I'm more of a forgive the first time, punish the second kind of gal. But in rereading it now, I see that much of it is ripped from another fic called Blue Survivor. Is that the one that's yours? I already warned the person to take down chapters that contained other plagiarism besides mine, and they clearly didn't. I'll send AO3 a message and hopefully the fic will get taken down.

      Yeah, that is mine. I actually started writing it after I saw the second Jurassic World movie.

      I also sent a message to the AO3 people about his plagiarism of the chapter containing my work. I’m really hopeful that the fix will be taken down, too

        It's more than yours or mine, unfortunately. I just got done parsing through the entire fic, and there's at least five that got stolen from, including yours and mine. I'm sending a report to AO3 with links and a full account of what happened. Chapters 5-14 of Hatched are all yours, I'm afraid. Hopefully it gets taken down soon. I'm sorry this happened to us both.

        By the way, great story! I read it before all this happened and loved it.

          Aw, thank you!

          Oh, wow... I only read browsed through Chapter 16 and it’s entirely mine, too.

          I’m very sorry your work was also stolen. I read Lonely Hunters and it was so good!

            Thank you!!

            I was thinking of leaving a comment basically saying "im reporting you weh" but let's actually not notify the "author" before the AO3 team settles it, otherwise the person might delete the whole story out of fear and never get punished.

              That’s probably the smartest thing to do. Even if they protest that they wrote it themselves, we know the truth.
