Any mods want to tackle this guy?

Every comic he's made is a word for word, image for image ripoff of toprated comics that have been showing up on the main page. The two most recent are ripoffs of myself and Squidrabies; the others are familiar but I'm not certain of the original authors.

HA! What a dick. He actualy copied and pasted all of their comics which proves that they are good enough to copy but still.

"Dyslexic Zombie" was stolen from Dexx.
"What is your secret?" was stolen from Spankling's "Thankgiving" comic.
"Rites of Passage" was stolen from Dougan.
"I Am Pregnant" was stolen from Rabid's "Ham" comic.

Funny how those are all Top Rated comics. What's worse, he/she added that stupid "This person is talking now, colon" shit to the text. It's supposed to be a comic, not a goddamned chat log with pictures. Nothing like stealing a comic and making it worse.

"Sean and the Giant Rubber" was stolen from flipynif, and "Joasy Scores" was stolen from Scyess.

I'm confused as to why this guy made my comic suck instead of just stealing it.

We haven't banned other plagiarists, not that my finger wasn't hovering over the button on pc007 who ripped off over 40 of my comics (some after I asked him to stop) plus some from Kaddar, or TiggerFish15 who ripped off a bunch from squidrabies and one of mine.

You can read all about it here.

I think plaigerism is more flattering than anything. It's not like it affects us anyway as long as we know that we made them first.

Unless of course, it's on a different site and they are selling the humour. THAT's different

I wasn't suggesting banning him, but I'm territorial about my work and I figured a mod could be more calm about telling him to knock it off.

TOS My Salad [8:36 PM]: Wanna hear something funny?

TOS My Salad [8:37 PM]: There was an experiment behind all those new comics I posted...
TOS My Salad [8:37 PM]: First of all, let me get this out of the way... I did not write ANY OF THEM.
TOS My Salad [8:37 PM]: Not one of those is original work.
Name Withdrawn [8:38 PM]: nice
Name Withdrawn [8:38 PM]: lol
TOS My Salad [8:38 PM]: They're ALL ripped off from Top Rated comics... While entertaining you guys by just tweaking the comics to be similar to chatroom situations, I was testing how fast they caught up with plagiarism.
TOS My Salad [8:39 PM]: Took them two days.
TOS My Salad [8:39 PM]: Heres the whole discussion.

Name Withdrawn [8:41 PM]: you're the man

Name Withdrawn [8:43 PM]: and your copying spiderman

TOS My Salad [8:43 PM]: I agree with Flipynif1... He said this is more like flattery.
TOS My Salad [8:43 PM]: Now if I used his work and sold it... Yeah that'd be bad.

Here's another great experiment... tomorrow at school, repeat everything someone says until they look at you and say, "Stop doing that, it's annoying." And then you can hoot gales of laughter and go, "I was wondering how long it would take to annoy you!" Then laugh all the way to the bank.
Having comics stolen doesn't bother me, by the way. I'm just confused as to the point of this endeavor. To see how long it would take to get noticed? Okay. It took two days. And? Where's the joke?
And then the instant it gets noticed, you hop into IRC and let one person in on your ingenious plan saying, "There was an experiment behind the comics I stole but didn't tell anyone I stole them until right now." Sounds more like damage control to me, but hey... you're the scientist here.
If you had actually "pulled one over" on someone, I'd be right there patting you on the back, but this is just... meaningless. And unfunny, which is worse. You get a green star for effort, but next time think up something that's actually worth the effort.

And you should probably have said, "Flipynif is the only voice of reason... out of the four people who commented." But I agree, his ass is very commendable.

Theres a compliment in my post somewhere, you just don't see it. Also what of the point that it should be funny, sometimes things aren't meant to be as such. The point i've proven is you're all very territorial... Thus all the death threats in my comment boxes, and death threats to my mother and such. Whether or not it was sarcasm is irrelevant. The way each of you handled this very stupid situation shows... HotRodDeathToll obviously has a sense of humor and doesn't take this serious... While you all curse my name for doing something as stupid as remake your comics, and adding stupid "This person said this, colon" before everything.

Above all else... Did I pull one over you? Hell no. Never said I did, never said anything else of my intentions except this was an experiment. Assume as you will, it will only confuse you more.

Also off point that wasn't IRC... I don't use this sites chat server. But thats irrelevant I suppose. Point is it's over, no more will be done. You've given me all the material I need, and I thank you for it. And i'll repeat... No more plagiarism will occur. Now... If you'll excuse me... I have to go attend to my various routines. Bash me all you want. It might make this even funnier.

Has anyone noticed how the latest, trendy dodge that trolling losers are using now is the whole "social engineering" angle?

OMG I WASN'T TROLLING I WAS TESTING YOU ALL AND PLAYING A JOKE AND YOU GUYS BIT CUZ YOU'RE ALL IDIOTS.

Variants of it include "I was doing a project for school." and "I was just testing your guys' response."

Here's a PROTIP: If you are so without a life that you think this up in the FIRST place and then go and do it, the actual loser is YOU.

The social engineering excuse was pathetic when it first started becoming the norm, now it's just sad.

Coming from whom? I certainly didn't send any. I was asking a mod to look into it and tell you to knock it off because I would have been a complete ashole about it. I wouldn't have even known you existed if the Random Comic search hadn't conveniently thrown me at one of your acts of intellectual theft.

Wow... You guys must have alot of time on your hands to think of all these different reasons, and dispute anything I state. Listen... Cause I keep noticing the same people earliar in the post who said they didn't really care I trolled comics, they're still arguing with me about it. Well done, you facist cocks. (Sigh) Well... If you wish to continue arguing it, so be it. Either way, as I said the comics stop. But I guess you people take entertainment in arguing with "trolls" like myself. =]

Brad, if you read this... Do ban this account. Cause either way I am not using it, I have my material ready. But I am saying this cause it's the only way to make some of these people; which aren't really saying what they mean happy. So... Ban, atleast exercise that right.

Don't ban him Brad. I shouldn't really be saying this but, Seph_Industries is the one the old legends speak of. He is meant to bring balance to the force. If you ban him it will be like banning yourself, from tasty bacon. I truly believe there is good in him.
Search your feelings, you know it to be true.
