part two of my increasingly exhausting ordeal with BlueThomasFanatic and his rampant acts of plagiarism and accountability avoidance; we've now reached the point where he's stopped pretending like he's creating his own "original" bots but "subtly" altering the scenarios/descriptions I've written, now he's just ripping everything right down to using the exact same avatars my bots use and copying my descriptions word for word

his: https://janitorai.com/characters/1e7b8581-fb9b-41f0-80cd-691b32525144_character-chilli-and-bandit-heeler
mine: https://janitorai.com/characters/e984852e-2821-4a78-af45-a696725c1f7f_character-chilli-and-bandit-heeler

I don't think he accounted for the fact that there's a related bots tab under everyone's bots now, and mine are usually the first ones to show up under the ones he's copied from me... though I'm not even really sure he cares given that he continues to do it anyway

the best thing to do normally would be to private my definitions but that's not gonna stop him from stealing everything else; there needs to be a full-on block function on this site that keeps the blocked user away from the other's account for good rather than hides them from your feed and nothing else, and if there is one already then I have no idea where to find it

I don't know how much more I can try to reason with this guy if all he does is keep stealing shit without any shame whatsoever - ignoring him is probably my best bet but letting someone get away with plagiarizing others' work while passing it off as his own just doesn't sit right with me, and no amount of reporting seems to work whatsoever

that said, I refuse to let this fucker drive me off the platform like he probably wants, because god knows how many other users he's stolen from in the past and got fed up enough with it to stop writing entirely

I'm not stopping anytime soon - your move Jev Rango, you and your sunglasses-on-top-of-glasses wearing ass

(before anyone asks no I did not dox him, he literally has his public YT account linked in his j.ai bio)

EDIT (9/23):
so the bugger responded - reposting my reply to him here just in case he inevitably deletes it (which it seems like he already did)

this addresses literally nothing my dude, you're not even denying the fact that you're copy-and-pasting from my bots - you have to start writing your own shit instead of copying from others and being shocked when people inevitably notice

also the Anakin pfp isn't doing you any favors, neither is comparing yourself to either Taylor Swift or Kanye which... like, if you're comparing yourself to Kanye of all people, that's definitely a choice lol

I'm pretty sure you lost your train of thought by the end of writing this considering you went on a random diatribe about Taylor Swift and plushies which has nothing to do with any of this - the point of the matter is that you're blatantly trying to misdirect people by using my descriptions/pfps for some of your bots which are allegedly "inspired" by characters I've written for and are then just not willing to engage with me when I (as the author of said descriptions) point this out to you, so of course I'm getting mildly frustrated by your willful ignorance

aren't there a LOT of things in the bible about "thou shalt not steal"?
