ff.net hacker? Weird story today.

[luvdjudge]

Hi, all!

I was looking on ff.net today to see if there were any new stories, and saw a download in Korean. All the story said was one word--"ttomorroww"-- and was described as "complete". I looked up the author's link and saw that they had downloaded FIFTY stories in multiple fandoms, all with the same one word content, and all listed as posting 11 hours ago (morning of 6/7/14)--i.e., simultaneous downloads.

I have emailed the support dept. of ff.net to see if this is considered abuse (hacking, etc.) and hope to hear back soon. This seems weird to me to have all fifty storuies all identical and downloaded at the same time.

Anyhow, thanks to all the "valid" H&MC authors. esp. Voyager Tip (really loved the last one re. Milt wanting to leave Mark his fortune in "Do Not Go Gentle..."!), who have added many great stories recently. To all the "veteran" writers of the STAR zines and many other classics in the fandom, please take up your pens again and share your wonderful visions of our two guys in new adventures.

I am starting week 2 of 8 working as a nurse at a camp in the beautiful "Hill Country" of Texas (2 hrs NW of San Antonio) and am thinking about working out some of my old rough draft fic notes into a real story during my down time. I'll see if anything works out well enough to post.

Take care and have a great summer!

Thanks for pointing this out, Susan. It looks like they have deleted the post.

Good to hear they took that down. I reported it yesterday afternoon and tried to figure out how to report the "author" as well. It was really weird because it wasn't spam of any sort, just craziness.

Yes, please, if there are any authors out there with new ideas for a fic, please do let us know. We'd be glad to help with editing, posting, whatever you need.

I saw that Korean story too (I look on Fanfiction.net every day to check on the number of hits I've gotten on my stories) and I saw it too, but I wasn't sure what to do about it. I'm so glad that you all tackled that problem. I looked at the author's profile page and it said he writes for H&McC & lots of other shows, so I looked for a translator... if he truly does, it would be neat to see how a person from another culture would write the relationship. Didn't have any luck though.

I have said it before, I am not a writer, but I did have an idea for a story, just one word really. Fog. It could encompass so many different things....
