We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service.

It's complete bollocks. I've received plenty of fake C&D emails over the years but this is the first time someone's been stupid enough to post one to the message board. I'm especially fond of the bit that demands we email her haikus back. Because then they would no longer be in our possession, right?

There's no plagiarism on this board or the Godawful website. We discuss and critique works that are published freely by their creators. They hold the copyright and we acknowledge the authors. We'd hardly want to claim that we wrote the dreck we showcase!
