The Case Against Sparky1205

Nov 10, 2011 12:22

On November 4, 2011, fairaday reported that sparky1205 had plagiarized several of runninequalslife's stories. Screencaps can be found in the original post, but it is clear that sparky1205's stories are a word-for-word copy with only the names changed.

I contacted both runninequalslife and sparky1205. While I have not heard from runninequalslife, I received the following message from sparky1205:

"Hi, thank you for giving me an opportunity to explain.

I'm not going to lie, the stories what I have posted are runninequalslife just with different characters. I am sorry for what I have done and wish to make amends. I have taken down and deleted everything what I have posted that belong to runninequalslife and sent an apology to her, asking for forgiveness and if there is anything I can do to make it up to her. This will never happen again and I fully accept the consequences for my actions.

I am sorry for the problems I have cause and I wish to move pass this as quick as possible. If you have any questions for me or anything that will help move this along quicker please let me know, i will answer them the best i can.

Sparky1205"

Based on the evidence and this response, I will be adding sparky1205 to the list of known plagiarists.
