plagiarism on ffnet (again)
Edit 17/02/09: She's taken it down, but I'm going to keep her on my list of authors to check on from time to time, just to be sure they haven't tried again. ^^;
Once again a "new" author has stolen someone else's story on ffnet. I'll give them that it isn't(but only just) a word for word copy(...they changed a character's age and butchered the grammar and language)but otherwise it is glaringly obvious that they plagiarized another story.
Take a look yourselves.

By the publishing dates and the number of chapters it is easily discernible who copied from whom.
Please report the plagiarized story by using the "report possible abuse" button on the left corner at the end of the chapter.
I don't like plagiarism, at all. It is one thing to be inspired by another's hard work, it is a totally different thing to simply copy their work and pretend it is one's own.
