Normally I don't care if a shitty story gets self ranked (or friend ranked) into the top twenty because usually survival of the fittest plays out anyway and even if it doesn't... oh well the fools have got to have their fun right?
However plagerism is another matter entirely.
And I'm not talking about someone making an unoriginal zombie story where it involves a group of people shooting said zeds in the head and boarding up their safe house until they all inevitably get their brains eaten. That's fine, everyone gets their inspiration from some where. You can even do something completely unoriginal and it still be entertaining.
No, I'm talking about this sort of shit right here.

If that doesn't look familiar, well that's because you probably forgot I linked to it a long time ago.

Direct line by line, word for word, flat out copying.
Now fortunately the plagiarist was already rated low by Playa who probably didn't know about the original and just thought it was a dumb story. So its not in the top ranks, but this would be one of those rare times that I'd urge a mass 1 rating just on general principle.
Be sure to make funny comments!
