So, what kind creep steals from the dead?

Today, I ran into a story.

It was well-written, but I had seen it somewhere before. I remembered an author in Smallville-fandom, thamiris, and went to her site to check the story out. Thamiris's In Principio was boyan_fraser's In Principio.

So, I made a post in journalfen's fandom_lounge to ask how I should approach the situation and there it was brought up that it wasn't just Thamiris's fiction that was stolen, but her journal entries, even comments. Even her journal name.

I made an abuse report and contacted mods of the communities where boyan_fraser is a member (mostly Prison Break-communities, but also slash and classics_slash, and I'm going to update the journalfen-post with new information once I get any. I've also made a post in stop_plagiarism that's waiting for mod approval. This is just one really unbelievable, cruel case. I hope that bastard will get what he deserves.

Yeah, it's really unbelievable. The nerve of it still baffles me, though I probably shouldn't be surprised. :(
