OK Serious this is getting on my nerves!!
Can members please STOP wripping of other members Fan Fiction and published authors WORK🤬
This is called PLAGIARISM what does this mean?? Well i tell you its definition
Plagiarism is the use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author and the representation of them as one's own original work. plagiarism is concerned with the unearned increment to the plagiarizing author's reputation that is achieved through false claims of authorship.
Which if u read SAM's POST is not ALLOWED!😔😔 Warning - Please read
So why in the past one month are we getting flooded with this on the Forum as its killing the crediablity of this Forum? This is killing the FORUMS creativity can Members please stop doing this!
I have no problems with members using the concept of something they have read in a book/magazine but to copy word to word! Sentence to Sentence.... Only indicates YOU HAVE NOT TALENT what so ever! Any one can change the characters name..... We all learn to copy in school when we in kiddergarden and Nursey but to make out you own the piece of work is pathetic....😔
CAN WE PLEASE STOP THIS STUPIDNESS..... It's making the forum look bad and IF is can be Sued for creating such blogs. There is a reason why it not Allowed!!
Just 2 days ago we had someone post an article that Fan fictions are getting to be popular and have now more readers are login on to the Net and reading FAN FICTION.... dont disgrace this by plagiarism.
We threive on Creativity and being orginal please guys stop copying published authors work and other fan fictions...
Sigh RANT OVER! Im disappointed guys! The Dev team can not be everywhere so if you spot this REPORT!!!
Those members doing this know who they are so please stop this soon
Love Kat😳

I totally agree with your post Kat!
This forum is a place where we get a chance to let our creative side out in the form on fanfics...Plagiriasm shouldn't be tolerated at all here...It's a different thing If you are inspired by a novel/ movie, but copying it word for word is definitely wrong and not at all right. The person who originally wrote it put in a lot of effort and one can't just steal an author's credibility just like that...
Totally agree...Hope the plagiriasm soon stops...

Hey Kat, thanks for the post honey, but i don't think i've seen plaigarism on here for quiet some time now...
Guys if you have copied someone else's work then please as a humble request from us... don't.
If you find your having difficulty with trying to find an idea or develop on an idea then please just pm some of the writers on here... i'm sure no-one here would mind offering idea's or advise on how to develop or improve an idea.
Please bare in mind that when you copy someone else's work word for word, it really does hurt as they spend absolutely ages developing and penning their ideas.
Once again Kat thanks for this post 😳
