[quote=@pugbutter] Is using the same character sheet format really "plagiarism," though? Unless you mean [i]actual[/i] plagiarism but I didn't see it in the brief and admittedly lazy scan I did of your post history. [/quote] Eh, I'd argue that, but it's been a recurrent thing that's happened in the past. Have had a character blatantly copied not a few months ago, I think a few sheets* , and a few sections of a character copied for a female character of the same concept. Words and all. It's annoying to deal with, perhaps not as [i]often[/i] as I'm making it sound, but any form of plagiarism is shitty to deal with - it's like a thing that occurs once every few months. Admittedly, receipts should have been gathered (as one instance, the individual erased the character entirely), but I didn't have the mind to do so in the moment. Can only take my word for it, but, yeah, it's been more than just a CS formatting. This one instance kinda just tipped the scale. [sub]*if the sheet formatting, itself, isn't as generic as they usually come, I'd go as far as calling it plagiarism if it's taken without permission; but, I guess it can be argued that that might be an extreme. I mean we all use gifs, memes, and various pictures we find on the internet without permission, so. *shrug* I'll toss it up in the air, but it's an annoying thing to deal with when one decides to strike something up that looks aesthetically pleasing, is fun to fill out, but still retains enough simplicity that it's easy to fill out, and is also not very conventional in terms of CSes (essentially, just something someone's taken their time to work hard on writing up) someone just decides, "oh that looks cool," and takes it. I think this is a different conversation, however, and will stop there so as not to fill this thread with off-topic conversation.[/sub]
