Warning: Story Stealer (IMPORTANT BLOG POST; DO NOT SKIP!) · 10:45pm Aug 14th, 2023
Seems someone on Fanfiction known as "Sunset JJ" has stolen My Little Pony: When Friendship Shimmers - Reboot and has even gone so far as to copy everything from Season 0 as well as the prologue of Season 1 and the first three episodes of Season 1.
And looking into their currently published stories on Fanfiction, they have stolen several other stories of people from here.
Let me be clear about something in regards to this: These stories are being stolen straight up and are being copied word for word. I don't mind it if anyone sees something I've created and creates their own spin on one of my works like maybe create their own version of a universe where Smolder gets adopted by Rarity around the time of the Sonic Rainboom; but I only don't mind this when someone doesn't basically copy what I've written word for word.
"Sunset JJ" has instead copies everything from the chapters I've mentioned down word for word and has most likely done so for several of the other stories they've stolen. Whoever is doing this is doing so without permission from the original writers. And let me be frank, I would never authorize something like this to begin with unless it was someone I trusted with doing so.
So whoever is doing this is doing so without my permission and I'd go on their account to double check if they've stolen your story too: https://m.fanfiction.net/u/14868365/
Let it be known that only the version here on Fimfiction is actually an official Rob Snowden production. The one on Fanfiction is not an official Rob Snowden production. I always put that on my works for a reason as that's essentially the official "Rob Snowden stamp of approval" in a way that validates my work.
So if that person is seeing this blog post, just know that I'm calling you out. And that I am not giving you permission to post my work on Fanfiction. So please, delete the stories you've stolen from me, as well as the other ones you've stolen until you've been given express permission by the original authors.
Also, if any pony could help spread the word about this, that would be the best course of action since Fanfiction isn't moderated and there's sadly no way to report the user outright since they don't seem to have a fimfiction account.
The nerve of some people.
That’s just terrible and outright disgusting. This person also stole littleman01’s MLDC Justice League story as well as I’ve been informed. Is there a way to report this user? I want to help, but I’m not sure how as Fanfiction doesn’t seem to be moderated like this site.
I saw someone else post about this

I think the best course of action here is to spread the word.

Doing that right now on my blog. I’ll be posting some threads soon as well, don’t worry.
GOOD NEWS!!!! Just now, an absolute legend managed to find this guy’s Fimfiction account. https://www.fimfiction.net/user/451258/Jaden+Joynes
I’m going to let you do what you please with this information. A report has already been filed on my end. It is my hope that justice will soon be served.
Well dude, I have the most amazing news ever to report. Sunset JJ, or Jaden Joynes in this case, is banned off of the site and his stories have all been purged. You can thank Eldorado for that. He came through once again!
Justice at last.
