The Drama going on everywhere...especially at sj_everyday

Wow. I'm even more convinced these plagiarism claims are CRAP.

So, I'm sitting here in class, really bored. So, I decided to mess around with this, what's going on.spiletta42  has been accused of plagiarism, so I decided see if I could figure anything out for myself. I'd been reading spiletta's fic since before I joined lj.

(Edit: The page with the story in question on stop_plagiarism  has award badges from 2004!!!  I'm more and more convinced that this is a witch hunt.)

1)  I found this story byspiletta42  on a third-party fic site (NOT spiletta42's website)
Kite String = http://www.kennedyfanfic.com/fanfic/story.php?no=1617
According to the Website, it was published on 2007-04-14

1A) I found this story posted onellecrossing by the person who claims to be "plagerized"
Vampires Kissed = http://community.livejournal.com/heroes_femslash/29785.html#cutid1, http://community.livejournal.com/heroes_femslash/30131.html#cutid1, http://community.livejournal.com/heroes_femslash/30384.html#cutid1
This was posted to the website on November 4th, 2008. It has the first line, last line, and a few random phrases I checked EXACTLY the same.

2)  Another story pointed out to me by rhyana 
spiletta42's "Badfic!Pete and the Temple of Doom" found here:  http://www.spiletta.com/petetemple.html (copyrighted Jan 2007 on the bottom of the webpage)
Which she used the first line for a meme on August 25th, 2008:  http://spiletta42.livejournal.com/221740.html

2A)  And the other version torchwood_fic  as "Torchwood SG-1.":  http://community.livejournal.com/torchwood_fic/900667.html#cutid1
Posted on November 1st, 2008.  Once again, I did a random content analysis, and found that spiletta's story is actually longer.

I too think spiletta42  has been plagiarized, and I think furqueen96  just deleted my comments on this post in stop_plagiarism .  Should I send a private message to the mod in charge of this case?

In conclusion, I am firmly in spiletta's column.  These accusations are false, and it's a damn shame.  I feel like putting all of this in a message to furqueen96  but am not sure if I'm brave enough to deal with it....(Maybe if I get some nudging from my friends....)

Edit:
And now furqueen has posted another entry on a Stargate fandom site that I frequent, even being warned that he/she shouldn't do that
