Basically, the scum of the planet, the lowest humans are able to do this and not feel guilty.

could you pm me with a hint of what website it is plagiarised?

Unfortunately, it is the modern day. The Gentlemen and the Proper Ladies are dying out, leaving us with individuals with no sense of guilt when thieving or murdering. This is the modern day, unfortunately. And we must stomp this problem to bits.

Once I saw someone claim my Moc was theirs on another website.

I know that they say imitation is the highest form of flattery, but I don't feel flattered right now. More than anything I feel sad; I feel sad and ashamed because this person's need for attention has led them to steal another person's work and claim it as their own. I feel sad and ashamdd because this happens EVERY DAY, and it has gotten to the point where a lot of people don't even care anymore. I feel sad and ashamed because some of these people may not stop at plagiarism — they may grow to commit crimes, or waste their life on addictions of any kind. It is a sad world we live in if it is one where theft has become the norm, even if it is not legal theft. When people write, they write from their hearts. When people truly write they put their heart and their soul, they put the very essence of who they are into their work, just like any other kind of artist — you can't take that. You can't claim to be someone else, and that's essentially what you're doing.

 

Now, I'm going to go to sleep...

Seriously? Ugh, what a mess. Hopefully you can get it taken down or something, though that's generally easier said than done with fan works.

Vorex, imitation and down-right stealing are different.

 

Imitation is putting one's personal spin on something, not claiming it as one's own.

Thankyou for your concern.

Actually, imitation can also be downright stealing. Imitation doesn't have specific boundaries, I'm afraid.
