SHE'S KNEW! Give her a break!
I missed the first part of this wank but the tail end is still going, so enjoy:  [info]mrsstokes on CSI Icons posts some icons (this part i missed) and somewhere along the line she gives the impression that some icons created by other people were made by her.

I'm unclear whether it was the icons she posted or whether it was in her journal page for icons she credited herself there, but it doesn't matter because after she deletes the offending post and removes the icons in question, she still feels the need to pout about it.  Not only that, but someone else decides to go off the handle about the treatment this newbie recieved for her faux-pas.  People grumble about the prolonged of drama and the whole "SHE'S KNEW!  Give her a break!" idea.

This probably would be over by now but it seems that [info]mrsstokes is one of those people who doesn't grasp the concept of replying to a thread rather than making an entirely new one about the same topic, so who knows what the future holds?

ETA: If you read down to ths bottom of this entry, you'll notice that [info]emma_chan86 is still piping hot about the whole thing heh heh.

I'm amazed she can post in the actual community then. That shit's like brain surgery if you can't figure out how to reply to the thread.

So we've established that SHE'S KNEW and I should give her a break. But isn't passing off other people's work as your own without credit against the rules wherever you are, be it LJ, myspace or even REAL LIFE? Or maybe she's knew on this planet?

Absolutely, and I don't think being 'new' is any excuse. I'm afraid I have no time for copyists/plagiarists, and I'm not in favour of cutting anybody any slack about it; there just is no excuse for trying to claim someone else's work as your own. How thick - or desperate for acclaim - would a person have to be, ever to think it was acceptable behaviour?

Well, after skimming through a few posts on her lj, I think she’s a bit confused as to the meaning of the word “mine” - to most of us, saying “these icons are mine” means “I made them.” To her, apparently it also means “I found them somewhere and saved them to my own account.” So, um, yeah, I'm gonna have to go with new on this planet.

Maybe it's some sort of secret code. Maybe she's trying to tell us that it was actually done deliberately.

"She's knew."

"She knew."

But she can't tell the truth because of she's sworn allegiance to mrsstokes' cause, and she can only divulge the information under the deepest cover. Or maybe I should stop listening to "The Bagman's Gambit" while reading wank.

I do love the plaintive calls for the missing mods.

Eensy editing thing -- the username for mrsstrokes appears once as mrstrokes in the entry.

Of course, correcting this will only lead more people to her PIIIIINK lj, so edit at your own risk.

I love your version of her username, just because I read it as that the first time.

It's always so fun when someone joins a comm without reading or understanding any of the rules, or having a God-given lick of common sense, and screws up royally, and then someone says that all the comm members should be "nuturing" and "helpful."

Is it wrong that, given the recent revelations in the HP fandom, I now suspect her and every person responding to her to be a sock?

And the screennames...

mrsspokes, msscribe...

I'm just sayin'...

For some reason I glanced at this wank, saw "mrsstokes," parsed it as "msscribe," and went AAAAAAAAAAAAHHH.

you know, hitler said the same thing....unity within his people, and peace within his country. didn't exactly talk in nice ways either. he brainwashed his followers; look where that lead europe. no, i am not comparing myself to him...i'm jewish. the point i am making, is that i definitely wasn't the first to treat someone as a child. [the person] brought about announcing to the whole community that the girl was steling. if anything, maybe she needs to get off HER proverbial high horse, and treat the girl the way she wanted to be treated.

What the fucking fuck?

Appeals to reason=be like teh Hitler!

"SHE'S KNEW! Give her a break!"

I thought the difference between knew and new was an obvious one. I suppose I was expecting too much.
