It is okay girl, I reported it (with an email). Unfortunately they are not opened till Monday. It does not help that this person is not responding at the moment which is adding unnecessary drama. I just did not appreciate this at all. But we will see what wattpad says.
@RedBird13 yeah I know, right after I posted the comment it was already flagged. Also for the first comment, I wasn't just two chapters ahead of the girl. The story is 120 chapters long.
I didn't mean that. :) What I meant was that you probably don't want to put all the 120 chapters up on wattpad at once. Of course you can, but it's not a good plan if you want ppl to notice you and your story. That's just how wattpad works. If you put all up at once, you'll have a hard time promoting it. But you should make sure you are ahead of her by some chapters so ppl have a good reason to come to your profile not hers. :)
As it is, I don't think that girl will be around wattpad in the coming weeks anyway (just a guess), thanks to all the ppl around playing sheriff's deputy and cursing her out, which means that she probably won't upload any more of your story for the time being, but also that there's no-one around to take it down, either, apart from wattpad itself - and I have no idea how long it's going to take them to decide on it. :(
And it wasn't me who reported your post as offensive! :)
You surely have all the right in the world to be upset if you someone takes your stuff without permission. :) All I was trying to say is that it doesn't help you, but rather causes more problems. One thing is how you feel, the other thing is how to limit damage. (We all get angry, though. A colleague of mine once through her cell against the wall... O.O I guess, one must be pretty angry to do that! XD)
As for posting the story on wattpad, I guess that's pretty much the only thing you can really do. Most ppl here won't go to another website if they can get the story on wattpad. And to have it taken down doesn't look like an easy (or quick!) thing to do, apart from the fact that someone can start a new account and post it again. You are more or less in the same position as the stars: Once the song has been stole, pretty much all you can do is put it out yourself. Sad, but true. :(
@RedBird13 alright thank you :) I just think her taking my story without my permission was pretty fucked up so I figured I had a right to be a little bitchy. But yeah I noticed one girl really liked my story so I nicely told her about how I got my stuff stolen. I'm actually considering posting the story on wattpad. Thank you :)
I'm sorry if somebody stole your writing. :( Here is a lawyer's advice: Always try *really nice* first. There is always time to get nasty later, and very often *really nice* will get you more.
Now as that's too late in this case, why don't you post your story here in full length and advertise it at her page and in the comments of her story and to everyone who has the story on their reading list or puts it on in the future. Don't be rude! No-one likes people who are rude or talk rudely about others. Start with a "Hi, excuse me" and just nicely and politely state that it is your story, that she took it without your consent, but that anyone who wants to can read the story IN FULL at your page. End with Thank you or Much Love or whatever you like, but be EXTRA nice! You want ppl to like you and come to read your story at your page, not that they think you are a brat. :) That's tactics. Good luck! <3
You know, if you don't want to post all at once, make sure you are at least always - let's say - two chapters ahead of the other girl.
