About the Copycat Site
Hello everyone. It's been a while since I wrote a post since I've been working on something for AFF these past couple of weeks so it's unfortunate that I have to write about something like this instead of good news. I've been informed that another site is also calling itself "Asianfanfics" and some authors have reported seeing their work reposted there. I have already filed the appropriate complaints and legal paperwork regarding their trademark infringement in order to protect your work from being infringed upon and to protect our members' accounts in case one of our members tries to log in to their site using their credentials and that other site is recording their details. Their webhost is in Malaysia so it will take a bit of time to sort things out with them but we'll see where it goes from here. I haven't mentioned their url here since I don't want search engines to give them any more publicity but If this isn't resolved within a few weeks, I'll write another post detailing our next steps and what you can do if you, as an author, is directly affected by having your work re-posted there. If your work is directly affected by this, don't worry, we'll get this sorted out.
