purchases and plagiarism

[tzikeh]

Two items for you all -

1) flummery has zines for sale for the cost of postage. Variety of fandoms. Check 'em out.

2) A Man from UNCLE story was plagiarized and posted as an "original story" in La Femme Nikita fandom.

Here is the plagiarist's post: http://www.voy.com/58826/1005.html

Here is the original story: http://file40.net/file40g/andmiles_g.html

Note the posting date of the original is March 2003, and the "original story" in LFN was posted in August.

The usual plea to go and reprimand the plagiarist comes next. We are a self-policing community; please go add your voices to the very few so far who have said "Plagiarism isn't worth it in fandom; you will *always* be found out and ridiculed."
