Copying in the Death Note fandom

[sashocirrione]

I first noticed this by accidentally reviewing the copied fic first, and seeing all the reviews there with the accusations. The copier ClarissaLawliet (at http://www.fanfiction.net/u/3472333/ on FFN) has 3 stories listed and the profile was created on 11-28-11. All three copied

Oh dude, I've just checked. And the stories, all three of them are still there. Despite the reviews on the Lxlight one telling her off....she's got the audacity to keep them up.

... Given what's on the author page, is she... trolling? I mean, she refers to "her" fans... seriously?! (is confused) But I bet this is no joke to the three people she plagiarized >.

Could she be starting fandom wank intentionally?
I mean, most of the time the plagiarist takes the fics down right away, but....she just left them.

By this point in time, having been in this com for just over a year, I by now have gained the impression that some plaigerists just like attention. Be it positive attention or negative attention, some seem to be fueled by *attention* regardless of whether it is good or bad. And the 'bad' sort can certainly gain you a lot of attention and notice.....

[johnnypenn]

I think you're right.
But, I also think she's gonna do it again. Attention, like you said.

[hoshiko_2000]

If the entire point is attention in the first place, then yeah, it's probably likely she will do it again :/.

[johnnypenn]

She's got to have something up her sleeve since she isn't taking the fics down.
I'm just not sure what it is.

Enjoying pissing people off?...

[johnnypenn]

Ah. That too.
