Re: Status and Support

Alright peeps. NaNoWriMo is a bust for me. But I'm still grateful for the experience as I learned tons and I have some great new ideas for my novel that I'll be putting into action now. What does this mean? This means that at this very moment I'm writing the conclusion to "Unexpected Too" ...

Re: A little love makin’ never hurt anybody, Human or Vulcan

Welcome to the forum, tambo2063 .... I assumed when they said no one had seen a Romulan in 100 years that meant no one had seen a Romulan ship. But given the crew's total shock at how the Romulans look, it's fairly clear that any knowledge Starfleet may have had about the matter had never spread to...

Re: Plagarism at fanfiction.net (non-Star Trek)

Two days after I forced Calidora-Mallfoy to remove all her stories by accusing her of plagarism in the reviews I get this comment on my story "Reunion": "I didn't like this. You should remove your stories they are tres shitty." So I reposted my accusation of plagarism against Ca...

Re: Status and Support

NaNoWriMo is here so fanfiction is officially on the backburner for this month. I'll be working on the last chapter "Unexpected Too" after I meet my NaNo goals for the day. "Dark Echoes" is on hiatus until at least "Unexpected Too" is finished or December -- whichever h...

Re: Plagarism at fanfiction.net (non-Star Trek)

If I have time later, I will spend it reporting every story. Hopefully we can get her kicked off the site (at least that username). And I'm going to leave a review on every one stating that it's plagiarized so that other readers will be alerted. (I don't know about you, but unless it's an author I k...

Re: Plagarism at fanfiction.net (non-Star Trek)

You don't know why you're outraged? I know why I am! It's because someone took the time to write a great piece of ficiton and someone else copies it, changes the names and slaps on a disclaimer to make it sound official and then claims it as their own brilliance. That's definitely an offense worthy ...

Re: A little love makin’ never hurt anybody, Human or Vulcan

Welcome to the beautiful world of fanfiction! :) I loved TNG novels and was looking forward to seeing good stuff in the Relaunch... but it's not doing it for me. Honestly, because I've read better fanfic than this stuff. It's not just about Trip and T'Pol either (I mean, wanting to see a more well-w...

Re: Abandoned stories

Alelou -- I cast OC's (at least in my original work -- the only OC I have in fanfic is Sah'nelen) and I have extensive soundtracks for my work. ;)

Aquarius -- Agree 100%

Re: Abandoned stories

In all honesty, my vehemenence was directed toward the idea of finishing someone else's work or writing a sequel to it without permission. Like I said before, I don't care if someone is inspired by someone else's work. In fanfic -- especially for a show that is no longer airing -- it's silly to beli...

Re: Abandoned stories

Others are more serious about their hobby. They work very hard to hone their craft, cultivate a personal style, develop their own voice and techniques. It's a very personal thing for them. They take a lot of pride in that which is uniquely "them" that they can bring to the table--or archi...

Re: Abandoned stories

*holds up hands* I'm not saying it's the ideal solution and am largely playing devil's advocate here, but if, say, there was one story we all really wanted finished and no one had heard tale of that person in years, and, say, someone jokingly suggested to a similar writer in the group "wouldn'...

Re: Abandoned stories

Yes, it is ironic that we are having this discussion when fanfiction is basically finishing someone else's work. Yes, we don't make any money from it and yes, our work in the fanfic world is not copyright protected. But we have operated under an unspoken code of conduct where we respect that the wor...

Re: Shold the Mirror Universe be Evil?

Personally I see the MU as a reflection on what humanity could have been in Trek had events on Earth gone differently. And really, I think the "Mirror, Mirror" episode in TOS that started all of this wasn't meant to be more than entertainment. If you go with the theory that every decision,...

Re: Abandoned stories

The intellectual property is sacred, I think. Dead, incapacitated or whatever, I believe that people treasure - or would treasure, if they were alive - that their rights are respected and honoured. And just because Internet is Internet, I think we should be more ethical and respectful there than in...
