Gah, more possible plagurism

   Check out sub 5212, and compare it to 4487.
   
   The words are not identical, but the format is the same and if I were to paraphrase both, they would be the same plot.
   
   But someone else take a look. I personally think Mr. Dragonlord has a legitimate beef here.

   The first DL was so generic and cliche that I figure it would just be a similiar type adventure, but sure as hell they match pretty damn good and I am convinced that is where it came from.
   
   If there were more vagueries and different takes on things we could say that they read it and then brainstormed on it thinking it was their own idea. But the format, phrases, and other things make it pretty blatant in my eyes.
   
   The denial bothers me otherwise I would have just put it in private automatically.
   
   Anybody else have an opinion. Else Sunday I will probably go in and put it in her private and explain our take on it.
   
   Thanks for bringing it up here val!!!

   I'm not at all happy about it. Baffled would be the word I would use...
   
   Why? It's not like they are making any money at this....

   We should just link them to each other. It's almost hilarious.

   Alls well that ends well?
   
   I take your point Silveressa
   
   Yes, it could well have been an honest mistake - after all, if an idea has been going around your head for a while, it can be diffecult to remember exactly where it came from
   
   Therefore, I'm happy to leave the matter there

   I'm with Strolen and val. The format and phrases are too similar, but I guess if Dragon Lord is cool with it.
   
   um, right?
