As Dante and Gary said.

However, while I can't say so for sure, but there's no guarantee that Yen Press wouldn't go after a fan translator for a licensed project (they are in it to make money, and a free translation decreases the demand), they just are more lenient. It's to keep the goodwill that B-T drops and removes all licensed projects. (BTW, you can still find the SAO translations if you look hard enough, just not on B-T)

Honestly, I hope that the LN never gets adapted because the English adaptions of the anime and manga are quite disappointing IMO.
