Let's hope a war between writers and writing sites (Like MediaMiner and 
Fanfiction.net) doesn't happen.  I'm not saying go ahead and steal someone 
else's work.  What I'm saying is what we don't need a war.  We have enough 
trouble as it is with the copyright problem...

(And if you want to ban me, go right ahead.  I'm just posting an opinion, but 
I know that you want to end this, so let this be the last post.)

Well, that's interesting.  I had no idea that Yakuza quoted Proverbs.  Boy 
this
is so educational.

<<          I've done the same thing, Cyber. I wrote them just as soon
 as June Geraci informed me of the presence of my stories on their
 site. That was Thursday afternoon, my time. It's Friday evening,
 and I still haven't gotten any response, not even a form letter.
 
          And before anyone says "that's not enough time", please
 remember that this IS the information age. It didn't take me
 any longer than five minutes to surf to Google.com, find the
 closest Canadian consulate to Colorado, and get their phone
 number. Ten minutes after that, I had the phone numbers for
 the Ontario Better Business Bureau AND the number for the
 Ontario Solicitor General (the Canadian version of an attorney
 general, for those unfamiliar with the term).
 
          Fifteen minutes. That's ALL. And MediaMiner's had well
 over twenty-four _hours_. Either the person behind MediaMiner
 is horrendously slow, deliberately careless, overwhelmed by the
 number of complaints (which in and of itself argues that there
 _is_ something rotten in the state of Denmark) or he's
 utterly contemptuous of us.
 
          As you can probably tell, I'm less than satisfied with
 the 'response' Media Miner has given me. I'm willing to wait
 for a few more days, given that this weekend is an important
 legal holiday, but if I don't get any replies from MM before
 the 15th of November, I'm declaring war.
 
          It's that simple.
