The Case Against TDragon195 and Friends
Original Case report here: http://stop-plagiarism.livejournal.com/213712.html
TaPiR Report here: TaPiR case FFNID 2505521 - TDragon195 - Multiple Fandoms - Active
Since the original report on 10th July, several key developments have occurred:
1) TaPiR members have since discovered an entire community of users on FFN doing the same thing as TDragon195. They have been lifting copyrighted works almost verbatim, switching a few names and details around, and posting them as 'fanmakes'.
2) FFN admins have recently become active, and have responded to some of the email reports by acting on the accounts in violation. Note that the response rate still varies, but in the interval since the last report, at least 12 FFN user accounts have been deleted by the FFN admins, including TDragon195's.
3) Others have been convinced to take down their stories on witnessing the spate of bannings.
There still remain numerous other user accounts with such stories up. TaPiR will be working through the numbers as time goes on.
Special thanks to roguemudblood, tikatu, the members of TaPiR and other supporters from stop_plagiarism for assistance in this case.
