Of Hates, Rants and More Hates

by L1berty0rD34th

With hates ranging from Chaos Stories, to terrible summaries, to horrible "love", this novel of hates, dictated by Percy Jackson, will go all out in an attempt to (unsuccessfully) cure the Percy Jackson Fandom. Warning: Heavy language, sexual themes, and high levels of unfriendly statements towards certain topics.

10. Plot stealing and Rip-off stories

Dear Fanfiction,

I'm writing a hate inspired by something that the author has been recently slightly upset about—stealing ideas and ripping off stories. Now, he isn't talking about House of Hades (duh), his comedy one-shot or his drabbles, but in fact about this "novel," if you could call it that.

Now, he likes to think that what he's doing is a rather original idea. Yada, yada, not original, yada, yada, maybe, but if there are any others, a) they never gained much traction and b)They're dead.

Ever since this story has popped up, the author has seen several similar ideas to this one, which is, in general, criticizing x community. He isn't accusing anybody of idea theft, but it was, you know, rather peculiar. Anyways, moving on.

A thief can steal several parts of a story. In order from least to most importance: Titles, Summaries, and plots. And when I say plots, I don't mean like, "hurr dur they kissed in this one AND this one, so x story must be a rip-off!" I mean, every single detail is stolen, and then rewritten.

Story titles, I don't really give a shit about, though a title that isn't completely fucking stupid would be nice. Summaries can cause a little problem. Stealing plots, though, gets me extremely upset, because one lazy author is stealing the work of another hard working one, which isn't very nice. What also happens is that most times, the stealing author completely fucks everything up, and suddenly, the original story isn't so interesting anymore.

I guess stolen plot stories aren't often taken down, because there's really nothing in them against the rules (unless they're copied word for word). I guess if that were the case, the PJO community would be 20x better, since there wouldn't be any Chaos stories (oh yes, I'm doing a second hate on that in the future).

And that's all I have to say. Please don't complain about how short these are, since a) they're drabbles, not meaty chapters and b)Sometimes, a really bad topic might be pretty damn long (the Chaos hate next chapter will be).

Please stop stealing this author's ideas,

Percy.
