Carmenica Diaz = Spam

[abitbent]

Forgive me if this topic has already been brought up...


I've noticed an author posting to the story page who goes by the alias Carmenica Diaz. Her(His?) writing style is very good, however this author is only posting "teases" or a "sample chapter" and you must link to her site to PAY for the rest of the story.


Anyone know why her stories are being accpeted for submittal when it's blatent spamming? :confused:

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. Generally, I allow teaser story or 'sample chapter' to be published on this site because I always think all these excellent authors deserve to get paid. When someone put alot energy into something, they deserver something much better than pad-on-the-shoulder. But I should always make it clear in the story synopsis if the story is book excerpt (I hope everyone reads the synopsis before reading the full story). Just like these two stories:
http://www.bdsmlibrary.com/stories/story.php?storyid=1188
http://www.bdsmlibrary.com/stories/story.php?storyid=1658

I made some changes to the synopsis of "Birthday Boy" by Carmenica Diaz. Unless the author decides to put the full story on this site for free, I will leave the synopsis that way. If you see some other stories are book excerpt, please let me know. Thank you.

Thanx Jinn..... at least it's clear that it's an accepted practise here at bdsmlibrary. I certainly hope it doesn't start a trend to the point where we find the front page just loaded with teasers and links to pay sites. From a personal point of view, any sypnopsis i see this way i'll casually pass over. I can read blurbs for free at the bookstore. :)

Thanx again for the clarity.

Jinn, thank you - if I wish to post excerpts from my longer stories in future, I will include that description within the synopsis.
I would point out that I have posted complete stories on this site. :rolleyes:

BTW the correct description of my writing is indeed 'her writing'

It has been brought up.

Over and over and over again... by you.

As I stated on the review page where you unfairly and unjustly gave Carmenica Diaz's story a rating of 1/10 when you yourself admitted the work was of high quality, I would much rather read a quality excerpt or story from Carmanica than a whole story of woeful quality like some that are posted. That said, even Carmenica's excerpts are longer than some whole stories.

What's wrong with paying for good quality erotica anyhow? Quite frankly, I always find it a lot more satisfying to moan than whine -- there should be more of it :)

[Carmenica Diaz]

Thank you. :rolleyes:

I haven't seen any stories by asmallbent? Have you? :rolleyes:
If there were, perhaps I should give them a rating of 1 because I don't like his avatar?
