MY OC WAS STOLEN!? WHY AM I NOT SURPRISED?
7 years ago
Anywhere between 2 and 3 years ago I put Cassie Gliese and Tandy Tundra up on F-list in hopes that RP would help me flesh out the characters' tendencies a little more. It didn't, and I found out I don't like RP because I'm not fond of the irregularities of RP. I took the characters down, left F-list, done and done.
Something made me go back today though, and after a little looking, I find out someone on F-list stole 3 images of Cassie Gliese and put them up as a character on the website, which they actively use.
Now, that part I'm almost flattered about. I want them to stop it immediately, but I'm flattered at the very least.
What actually offends me is that they decided to change parts of her character for whatever reason.
She works at Barnes & Noble instead of a library. She's pansexual instead of female-preferred bisexual, she loves muscular dudes, doesn't like exhibitionism, and she's a 'shemale'. This among several other features are just plain incorrect, especially since it's Cassie motherfucking Gliese, my character. Again, I'd be flattered somewhat if it weren't so insulting.
If you happen to see "Cassie Gliese" anywhere on F-list, just know it's not me and the character sheet was made without my express permission. The character is obviously my intellectual property and as such I have right to defend my IPs from being taken and bastardized for a single person's pleasure.
F-list. Not even once.

So sorry that adorable Cassie has been taken the way she has, but yeah definitely post this everywhere if you haven't already....I hate assholes that steal characters.
Just gotta watermark the fuck outta everything and it makes pictures less enjoyable :(
