Defamation!
UPDATE: This case is closed. Both Deviant Art and Good Reads have responded and helped me. Thank you.
Below is the post I posted in my DeviantArt journal: http://hectorhimeros.deviantart.com/j...
Today, I find out that I have been defamed by an obsessive troll called Aidan Brady http://aidan-brady.deviantart.com/ Surprised! She's NEW! (from trusted source, I believe he's a she). In GoodReads, also Aidan: http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/19... She has a personal vendetta with me because she's so determined to defame my name everywhere. According to her, I pirated some ebooks in an ebook-sharing forum called Superiorz. She even claimed she had "digital proof". One should ask:
* WHY did she go all the length to defame me? Doesn't she have things to do in her life?
* WHAT advantage does she get from it?
* And why spamming!
To respond to that defamation, I'm not scared to focus your attention to this journal, coz I want YOU to KNOW! Yes, I'm in Superiorz forum. But I have not posted any pirated books there. I barely read ebooks! My GoodReads profile confirms that! Why would I collect ebooks just to pirate, not to read? What advantages do I get! Esp using my own pen-name! Seriously!
I want you all to kindly search my DA journal dated: Aug 29, 2012: http://hectorhimeros.deviantart.com/j... In there, I openly mentioned I'm a member of a forum called SUPERIORZ I don't need to hide. I did nothing wrong.
I want to tell you all about Aidan:
* Aidan uses FAKE NEW nicks both in DA and GR
* Aidan SPAMS GR & DA. Even mods in GR are annoyed and ban him/her
* Aidan THREATENS me using private messages, even in Yahoo Mail
Does Aidan sound like a hero of justice to you? Aidan claims she has resources to eradicate piracy. If she's truthful, she could have easily to topple down various pirate sites! The logical way to stop piracy is to catch the BOSS! Not to catch MILLIONS uploaders/downloaders of movie/music/ebook/photos/arts ONE BY ONE as she claimed. People, don't forget to ask Aidan for screenshots from OTHER "pirates" to fufil her solemn vow!
My friends tracked the real Aidan. She's not anti-piracy superhero. It turns out that she was actually one of high-ranked pirates from an ebook forum called V******* with girly nick E*****. She has access to its secret upload server, where once a file has been pirated there, no complaints can get it erased, coz they own the server. She's also on an ebook forum D****** with a male nick A*** R******
I have no idea WHY she targeted me. I suspect she views me as a threat. Imagine, a writer among forums, like a cop among drug dealers. So if she could frame the cop as a drug dealer, why not? Eliminate the threat, right?
Yes, I do know some users in Superiorz, including the co-admin R. R and I have been friends for quite some time. It does NOT mean I'm a pirate. If you befriend a thief, does it make you a thief too? Superiorz is not pirate site like others: it has chatroom. Many users join there to chat with their friends. R stated there are 200 regular members who log in there daily just for chatting. For a writer, it's a good way to promote and control his/her books. R has been so kind to let me put a banner there for free.
I also want to show you guys that digital proof nowadays mean nothing. it's VERY easy to create fake screenshots. I can easily create screenshots of her in a cannibal forum. Or even fake sex picture. Fake account in forum can also be done easily. Like waiting for a tree to bear fruit, the fake account can be planted for months even a year!
Those who know me well, know that I'm NOT rich! So I can't donate any money to support any forums! Aidan accused I'm contributor, donator, even paid Superiorz to put my ad! Want to know the truth, my TWO ebooks total only sold THREE in Smashwords! Aidan must have reality-perception disorder to think he/she could INSULT the INTELLIGENCE of people in DA and GR.
Well, I have raised my voice against this big conspiracy. I'll leave the rest to others who still have brains on to judge the case. Good day everyone. Thanks for the support.

I also feel for you hun. It's so disconcerting to being targeted by someone you barely knew. Surprisingly, I've come to realize that she's also a member of K******.** with another pseudo name and bad attitude. As for Superiorz site you mentioned above, i beg to differ. It's not healthy for authors to promote their works at that site since they are also pirating books like others with original copies. GR is indeed, imo, the best site to promote and encourage readers to buy books. Just my two cents :)
Also I think rating books you don't even read just because you disagree with their author is just plain stupid.
