So...you stole this story? Deleted the first? Deleted your account? Cause I'm pretty sure theft and reuploads are against the site rules.

So I wasn't going crazy. I was like, "I know I've seen this story before".

I guess I didn't dislike it enough the first time around to make a note of who wrote it...I see this new account is just a few months old, so I'm very suspicious.

Googling the name of the story with fimfic brings up several results for the original, now-deleted story and said story was posted by an account using the same name as this one.

One of the results is also a youtube reading of the story posted in March that lists the name of the author being the same name as this account.

I knew I'd seen this around before.

More Human x Cadance dickings pl0x.

Hang on, I've read this before. I recognize the cover art.

As someone who's had their work stolen/copied with minor edits to make it seem original, this is reprehensible.

Delete it, now.

Hey, I am an owner/mod on one of TAD's patreon Discord severs for a current game that he is working on. I just wanted to personally vouch for TAD and say that this is his own work he is reuploading after deleting his account along with all of his stories a couple to several months ago. I know my word may not mean much, so if you want to contact me you can message this account and I can invite you into the Discord server that he is in for further proof. If you understand the situation, thank you and everyone have a nice day. :3

I dunno about any rules this may or may not be breaking, but I’m just gonna silently cheer from the sidelines because this was always one of my favorite human x pony stories.

Well, he could use a bit more active support as this is actually TAD. My previous comment below explains it all, but I'm just trying to vouch for TAD as his mod/owner of his Patreon Discord server for a game he has been working on. :3

It revolves around personal things that went on in TAD's life that isn't my right to explain. But I can swear on my life this is him and he is back to reupload his old, deleted works.

Well, this was not what I was expecting, but I guess I should've seen it coming. Not really sure how to respond in general, as I am the original author of this story: A Different Kind of Distortion. Yes, I deleted my account, as I mentioned in the author's note. That also has the effect of losing all your stories permanently. When I did this I was not in a right state of mind and have since then regretted the action. Hence why I have uploaded this story again.

However, the kind of commentary I've received thus far really does not help me in making me very comfortable in uploading my other stories. I've been through a lot these past months, to put it lightly, and I was hoping this would give me some positive energy going forwards in the future. Right now, it's only doing the opposite for me, which is really unfortunate.

I might just revoke this story and permanently pull back from the MLP-fanbase as a result to avoid further confusion and accusations. I apologize in advance to everybody if this will be the case.

It might help if you put something about you reuploading in the description.

10427327
I’ll have to agree with Zamairiac, it might help if you put some sort of message that these are your official works and not someone else re-uploading it. But on that note, it’s delightful to have you back! I’m sorry for whatever personal issues may have been plaguing you. I hope you’re doing well! I adored a lot of your stories and there were some I didn’t get to read yet, and I was admittedly disheartened when your stuff was deleted. I know my lone words might mean nothing but I implore you to not give up, you were absolutely missed and I’d eagerly look forward to any new writing endeavors if you’re wanting to put out new stories, or I’ll also be content if you’re just uploading your old stuff. :pinkiesmile:

10427327
I'm going to echo Zamairiac and Jaythedude42. A note about the re-upload in the description itself rather than an author note, which can be easily missed if somebody does not read any of the chapters for lack of willingness to give views to potentially stolen work, would have eliminated a lot of confusion.

That being said, I'm happy to see you back and I'm thrilled to give this story another read-through. I do apologize for my behavior and I really hope that our skepticism doesn't drive you away from the community again. :c

10427327
Please don't be mad at everyone, it's just a simple misunderstanding. If I was in your position I would be flattered that people fondly remember my story and would try to defend it from being stolen. Unfortunately, that has caused some problems because it's not actually being stolen, but it's the thought that counts.

10427013
If you read the Author notes it should explain. Or the earlier comments including one by this account owner.

10427327

Don't let what people like DivinePanzer say get you down. That guy's a jackass and most of the time he just whines about how much he doesn't like stories just because he never wrote anything worth reading. If you're trying to reupload your old work, go ahead. It probably would have helped the story's reception to have that authors note in there and have a very big and bold note in the description, but it should be fine now. Just keep doing what you're doing man. Don't let random asshats on a pony fanfiction website get you down.

10427506
I don't think he's mad as much as distraught. Shame on everyone for keeping their positive responses to comments that accuse the author of plagiarizing their own work.

10427327
They're reaction is expected as suspected foul play is at works and no indications were given that this was a reupload unless someone checked the chapter itself, though most people tend not to. In all honesty I wondered about if you were the real author until i read the first chapter.

10427327
Glad to see you back, i really enjoyed this and The Proposal Proposition, i am sure you've read everyone elses same comments but having it in the description of the story rather than in authors notes might be a good idea as its immediately in front of people, Hope all is well with you.

I happen to be one of the members who archive these stories and I can tell you that this stories original Author is "ThatAverageDude" My copy is archived from 6/4/18, 11:47 PM. I have no reason to doubt this is the original Author.

I also have "Forging a bond" by ThatAverageDude archived on 6/5/18, 3:23 AM. My copy is not listed as complete. Unless its a short story, I may only have a few chapters of it.

My point is that yes, these stories are originally by ThatAverageDude.

Heu, I know you, weren't you the one who congratulated me by my stories?

10427819
Yep,

Im kind of active on the site, and I like to give solid feedback Authors when I think it can help.

Really happy to see this story again :twilightsmile: I hope we’ll see more from you in Fimfiction

Thanks for all the positive words of encouragement, people! I have taken your suggestion at heart and put a disclaimer in the description of the story in bold that can't be missed. I was under the assumption that using my original name and an author's note in the first chapter would be enough proof that I was the original author of this work to begin with.

I hope this clears up any confusion. I shall do the same to my other stories when I upload them again.

Why'd you leave, if you don't mind my asking? And what brought you back?

Just in case people don't know, there are several sites that make backups of fimfiction stories:

Enjoy!

It's nice to see you back! I hope you upload the rest of the stories, there's no point in hiding them :)

''But I mean it!'' she reassured him. ''Why else would I do anal with you?''

I fucking love this story.

Okay cool this story is back! One of my faves :)
Will you be uploading/reuploading more stories?

Gotta say the comments here are rather disappointing, some of yall real quick to jump the gun.

I feel sorry for Shining...out of everyone, if he ever finds out, he would be devastated that his wife doesn't love him like she loves that human. Honestly would have been best if he found out ngl tho. Living a sham of a marriage is worst off In my opinion. Still hot sex, am i right?

Glad to see this one back again. My candy folder was already low but when I couldn’t find this one I figured you an hero’d or got isekai’d.

This was a good read, absolutely wonderful.

Nice to see Luna getting a piece of the action

Nice TF2 reference... I think?

This was a awesome beginning I can't wait to see where this goes

This was good. Have any plans for making a chapter with Twilight? There's still one princess he hasn't got with yet.

10452018
I might do a Twilight one in the foreseeable future if enough people would like it!

Maybe we can have cadance meet up with queen crystlis. Let Thomas get a sexy and sexy maid to fuck. Maybe have celestia hold a diplomatic meeting where he is introduced and fucked by other royalty like Dragon Lord ember or the queen amd/or the princess of the hippogriffs.

Celestia's silver tongue was unbreakable, even a polygraph test would've yielded under her steel nerves, and Shining seemed satisfied with the answer, for now anyway.

Like that's saying anything. Polygraphs are junk science, and always have been. Even the polygraph's own inventor, John Augustus Larson eventually said so.
