There is no difference in treatment of new and old members. Same rules applies for all.

If someone had copied your update then I am sorry it happened. You should have let the person known immediately.
But please do note that we have rules that do not allow for copying from other sites and vice versa. Please contact the Mods if you would like to do the update. I am sure we will need good updaters.

All the best😊

There's no double standard treatment of old and new members. It's just that in this case, I knew that it was copied because it had another member's name at the bottom. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known. The same must have happened when someone copied your update. When there's no indication of something being from a different website or written by a different author, then it's hard to catch the culprit.

I'm sorry too that someone copied your update, but as Harini has said, in the future do let the Mods know about this. They can handle it from there.

I am sorry you felt this way. Harini is right. If you do wish to update contact the moderators. All IF forums have their designated updaters.

Sucks that your WU's were copied but it does happen. There are ways of preventing it but I cannot remember what they are. A Mod should know though. I think that's what made your updates so easy to copy. Whereas an older forumite would put in the blocks so their updates do not get copied. Defo no difference in treatment of old or new forumites from Mods or anyone else.

No Shaun. Write Ups get copied and posted on other sites regardless of what is done. It has been the bane on other forums also.

I understand how you feel. Plagiarism does happen.

One of my Ahem and love posts was copied on Punjabi Junktion forum.

Make sure you inform the moderators should this happen next time.

Further the same rules apply to new and old members.
