Theft Report | Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon

Posted: 12 years ago

Hi.

I have been a member of this forum for quite sometime and been quite active. I have been posting FF's and OS's and SS's and bestially keeping you entertained.

A few days ago while surfing the net I had the most brilliant idea: why not make a siggy where I can show different facets of ASR's personality and make it humorous?! So I came up with basic ideas and ended up making this:

I have been using it as my siggy ever since.

Today I log in and find this post:

What the bloody effwa?!?!?! Whoever made the following stole my idea to the tee... I know great minds think alike but they do not think in Xerox! And no bloody "I like your siggy may I use it" just a simple copy paste and the finger for good measure!

This has been the last straw in my dealings with IF... because IF refuses to take a stand for plagiarism I refuse to increase it's views by providing my creativity. I am off to my blog where only a select hundred will be allowed to view it because honestly I am super pissed!

You know writers are actually being treated like some doormats here.

They create such a big hula out of the MATURE CONTENT issue, but what about plagiarism? No rights for covering that up! Our creativity is not only being suppressed but also being stolen?

IF has such a strict code of conduct when it comes mature content, so why don't they put some more effort into standing against plagiarism? Alright fine, there are those HTML codes that do protect but why aren't we allowed to bash up the person who is stealing our works? The person does not deserve to be in here because they do not respect a writer's creativity, which is either by suppressing it or stealing it?

Like Munchy JUST SAID TO ME ON SKYPE, "The writers are the one who provide IF the high viewership it has." If it boasts for being the No. 1 Indian Entertainment Portal, it's because of us writers, whether on the FF forum or TV show forums, this website even exists. And here we are being treated like dirty underwear.

You know what. I'm done with IF. I'm out of here. I'm removing all of my works from here. And I'm setting up my own private blog that only my friends can read, for GOOD.

I'm sorry for what happened Munchy. It hasn't happened to me yet, as in I'm indirectly being affected here, but I have every right to be paranoid.

What the hell?!! I can't believe someone did that, how lame and sad?! Some people just have no shame or decency, at least ASK before you nick someone's ideas jeeez, it's just disgusting behaviour!

I love your siggie and for what it's worth, yours is way better - and the person can't even spell Khushi's name right!

I hope you'll keep PM-ing when you update but if not then it's not a problem, have already bookmarked your blog🤗

I saw a spoof Shah Rukh Khan what so-so thinks I do weeks ago... i remember laughing about it with friends, I always assumed that your sig was based off that idea. But looks like it was just your idea that spurned several sigs on tumblr and FB.

Im sorry to see you hurt... plagiarism is a big problem here. Im sorry if you feel that you wont be on IF anymore - just to let you know that I will be stalking your blog... so see you there!
