This is a general notice to the community. And a plea for help.
As you may know, I have shared some PT doujinshi here in the past. However, lately, it has come to my attention that someone (and I have no idea who) that downloaded, did not follow the given guidelines. They had "Mitternacht Glocke" (
NC-17 doujinshi, by the way, so be careful not to look at the scans on those pages if it's not your thing) put up and displayed on
THREE different sites:
Fakku: http://www.fakku.net/doujinshi/mitternacht-glocke-english
Desudesu.com:
http://desudesu0.com/archives/11114G-E-Hentai: http://g.e-hentai.org/g/433480/b9bd96fd01/
All requests made to these sites to have the doujinshi taken down have been
ignored. The owner of Fakku is the one who put it up there. I e-mailed him at:
jacob@fakku.net He asked to see the conversation between Herberywood and I and I sent it to him. He has not messaged me back since (and this was a few days ago, now) and the doujinshi remains up on his site. The hentai site did not reply, either, and the doujinshi remains up on there.
This puts Rainbowfish/Herberywood's site in danger. Why?
I wasn't kidding when I said that in an e-mail conversation between me and one of the Herberywood circle, they asked NOT TO HAVE THEIR WORK POSTED ON OTHER SITES. I'll even show you guys the e-mail they sent me many years ago when I said I had some of their doujinshi, loved it, and asked them about purchasing further doujinshi directly from them:

Hello! Thank you very much for an email.
It is the first time that I get an email from U.S.A. and is surprised very much.
It is to want to sell a coterie magazine by mail order, but I am very sorry, but do not sell it by mail order abroad basically in my site circle.
The staying in Japan that I transfer it to an account of a Japanese post office, and is possible is an object.
I tried to examine it, but it is the big reason that foreign countries do not sell by mail order that a thing and the fee that are impossible with present status so that after all a procedure is necessary for realization by a method except it are high at all.
Please understand it.
It is a request, but publications please do not make my picture have a site without permission.
I do not pay attention to a share to enjoy with an individual, but what anyone puts in seen environment please stop.
Of oneself is because it thinks very unpleasantly that is not going to know it, and is used my picture without permission.
Japanese copyright is very severe.
When I am the worst, I must come to close a site.
I seem to begin to draw fanart and feel very glad that tutufan is active.
More fans should increase.

Please,
please, PT comm. If you can spare these guys on the uploaded sites an e-mail, I would
really appreciate it. They took these scans from here, where I shared them for personal viewing of fans ONLY, and they are spreading them across the net freely after my posts specifically asked people not to do so for the sake of the artist's wishes. This needs to stop before we may possibly lose one of our beloved Japanese PT fansites.
Thank you for your time.
It may also be noted that I will NOT be sharing any doujinshi again until further notice. This greatly saddens me that some fan(s) have done this.
