I can see why some people wouldn't, but I'm fine with that. I'm not THAT hung up on the opinion of a bunch of nameless people on an anon meme, you know? Good place to vent =/= source of all my validation.
That said, I went overboard replying to the last reply because the coalie made such a weird, illogical leap from what I actually said (somebody seems to have taken a lot of what I wrote, passed it off as their own and it's made me not want to treat them) to somehow reading "la! I am a brilliant diamond, people want the words I write!"
I mean, maybe some very young people assume if somebody copies their words, their words must be extra good? But plagiarism never automatically means the person you're stealing from is super-special. It just means the plagiarist is desperately uncreative.
