Reporting Plagiarism of Lt.Colonel John Sheppard

Jul 01, 2013 16:02

I'm reporting apparent plagiarism by Lt.Colonel John Sheppard.

( My case is made below the cut due to length. )

2013, fandom: stargate sg1, site: fanfiction.net, mod: horustheavenger

Checking this case out. It appears that the veracity of Lt. Colonel Sheppard's claims are in doubt. At least one of his stories, http://www.fanfiction.net/s/9451170/1/Bubbles, is plagiarized from here.

The other story on his profile has a duplicate here. The posting dates suggests this is Lt. Colonel Sheppard's other account on AO3, however.

Will send a PM and update if we receive a response.

He had already deleted the second stolen story. I bet he was stunned to get so thoroughly called out. Heheheheheheh.

Actually, no. Well, he didn't seem to be. As a matter of fact, he's seemed to take it more that I was after him for some reason. Not the case at all. Aside from this issue, I have no problem with him directly. I mean, after the repetitive lying, I don't trust him as far as I can throw him, but luckily I don't have to actually interact with him so it's no big deal. I can peacefully coexist in fandom with him. But he does seem to be finding particular joy in lying to me over and over. There's got to be more to what's happening - seems like he's looking for something. But what do I know? Maybe he just found a sucker who'd play the game. Goodness knows I enjoy a good pot stir from time to time, but I'm not sure I'd enjoy putting in as much effort to do so as this little kerfuffle must have cost him.

Bubbles has been removed from LCJS's FFN page.

You would think he/she would at least use the search/find/replace function that word has...

*stage whisper* Shhhh. Don't give them ideas. Let them keep outing themselves. ;)

After I made the report here I discovered he'd also stolen his story Happy Anniversary from this Dawson's Creek Happy Anniversary.

And regarding the Bubbles story, you might find this exchange enlightening... He told me he wrote bubbles and asked if I wanted to check it for plagiarism. Here's my response.

Oh, and I nearly forgot...it appears his Jonny Quest fic (now removed) was plagiarized, too.

ETA: I couldn't find contact info for the original author so I couldn't find out if it was LCJS under a different pseud, however the removal leads me to believe it was plagiarized.
