REMINDER: Plagiarism is NOT Tolerated.

It has been brought to my attention that someone thinks it's proper and perfectly moral to plagiarize (note: site may be deleted, but it has been documented with a screenshot) the news entries that are written on this newsblog by copying everything word-for-word and then not giving credit back to the original site and author.

Let me please have a moment to remind everyone that such behaviour will NOT be tolerated. I certainly don't mind if you quote a small excerpt and link back to the original article or newsblog, or if you just provide a link only, but please don't do something as stupid and wrong as think you have the right to any information online and pretending it's yours or someone else's. YOU DO NOT.

I also ask, however, that if any of you see this happening online, please refrain from flaming and let me know right away through age.of.silicon@gmail.com with the URL of the offender. I will deal with the issue myself. This issue extends to anyone plagiarizing any of the ancillary sites to the newsblog, such as the Season Two news summary.

This is NOT the first time someone has done this, and I also think it won't be the last. Regardless, if this becomes enough of a problem, I WILL shut the newsblog and all of the related sites down so that no one has anything to copy from, and I'll also be sure to point-out who's at fault.

Thank you. I apologize if that was harsh, but things have come to a head, and I am honestly very tired of constantly seeing plagiarism of all kind in this fandom.
