The person guilty of plagiarism deserves the entire wrath of Anonymous, as far as I'm concerned. It is not bullying, it is vigilantism since the person has done something that the society sees as wrong.
Bullying would imply that the user did nothing wrong and people are just meanies who are being big meanies doing and saying mean things, those meanies. Meanies.
This is not the case.
I stand by my opinion, but my opinion and what the Castlevania Dungeon's collective administrative stance on something are not always in alignment.
I suppose in the future I should post what is my personal opinion and what is the forum's administrative stance...
...or not. I really don't care to do that much work for an insignificant percentage of the forum populace.
I think a ban of Ericard would at least satisfy both parties and points of view at least in THIS forum. (For the millionth time.)
As I mentioned before, it may not stop him from coming to this site and stealing content but at least everyone would feel better about the whole situation in general to include the victim, The Plot Twist.
I see all this nonsense about trying to defend Ericard and he is dead wrong ( he even admitted it himself), but alot less about The Plot Twist and the distress that has been caused to him.
Either way, The Plot Twist was attacked through PM by Ericard and had his work stolen and then some vindictive crap started to go down which of course opened the flood gates to this thread.
Without wadding through everyone's opinions of this thread, that calls for a ban if I don't know what does...
What happens after a ban here "off the grid" so to speak doesn't really have any relevance to anything regarding the dungeon only to serve as a warning to others that may want to do something similar in the future.
Let's just ban Ericard and put this whole ugly mess to bed before we get some copy-cats or some major heat or whatever.
I just got the feeling nothing productive is going to come out of this mess and the whole message about stealing is getting lost in the back and forth.
