Plagiarized!

[leoparda]

Some pathetic loser over on FanFiction dot Net had the nerve to plagiarize the ending to my alternate version of "What Happens in Gimmelschtump".
The worst part isn't just that they SUCK at disguising it (ll they did was change it to first-person and switch names) it's A FUCKING "TWILIGHT" FIC.
I've already reported the fucker for plagiarism.

I know... I should be flattered but I'm just angry.

The fact they the person plagiarized you is bad enough, but talk about adding insult to injury? TWILIGHT? Ew.

It took me awhile to remember my account and password - haven't used it in years - but I logged in and reported.

Thanks hon... d'ya think this will finally get you to reading my stuff? Just to see what was so worthy of such vile copy-and-paste chicanery?

Why m yes, I AM shameless! Thanks for noticing!

Plagarizing fanfic. And using it for Twilight fanfic. That is just low.
I can understand being inspired by someone else's fanfic, but you don't copy-paste, and if you take inspiration from someone else, you f****** write it, loud and clear, like any disclaimer.
And preferably you also write that person and tell them you loved their story and therefore got so inspired to write you own stuff using elements from that story (characters, places, plot etc.).

Exactly! I have a chapter of my current fic (sorely needing an update, I admit) that was inspired by someone else's fic, and I posted that it was a shout-out, nice and clear up there at the beginning of the chapter.

What this scumbag did was not only low, it was incredibly careless. That bit about "evil" makes no sense unless you know the context!
