If it isn't your own story, always give credit to the original author.

AND

Do not repost other people's stories without their permission.

What I'd like to do is simply post a link to the story on asstr.org, a free site. So far, so good. Naturally, I'd give credit to the author in my post. But do I really have to go to the extra step of contacting the author for permission for the link? Seems like if he or she posted it at such a free site, he or she is hoping for the largest publication/dissemination anyway. Thanks in advance.

Posting a link to a story is fine (we even have the thread prefix "Links to Fictional Stories"). Copying and pasting the entire story over without the author's permission along with the link is not fine, as I understand it.

You can't post fake pics anywhere:

18. DO NOT post or request photoshop / edited fake photos.

I am working on a story and want to use photos in the story. I am not sure that it will work if it is not posted in mac pages.

Also in the story the girl who has to sneak home, or might have to sneak home naked is worried her 15 year old brother will catch her. That is it. He does not appear in the story she just is worried he might be home and catch her naked.

I have had stories posted as other people's work, a real lame thing to do. Also I have had stories posted where the poster says it is not their story but i get no credit.

These two are just unacceptable.

Also if I post a story for free it doesn't mean any one has the right to post it and justify it by giving credit. Nor does it mean I want as many people as possible to see it. Don't assume exposing the story to a wider audience is something the author wants. They may or may not.

The only acceptable thing is to get permission or use a link. I might not want a story to appear on certain forums for reasons you might not know about.

They are my stories and I decide their fate.

You can not image how I felt when for the first time I read a story of mine that another claimed as their own. i was shocked and felt betrayed. I did this for free for the enjoyment of others and some sad lowlife steals it/ Does it make them feel good about them selves posting someone's story as their own? I publish stories for people to enjoy but they are still mine and still my property.

What if I took your car but gave you the credit for buying it.

Alpha -- who did thus and with what stories, I'm curious if I did it on accident. I posted sibling rivalry a while back and tried to both link it and give credit... Sorry if it was me -- the story was so great I had to share it... But I definitely didn't claim i wrote em...

If you asking about i_n_c_e_s_t, the answer is no. That is not allowed.
