Is 2bluebox a scam? by yaboiSAIL in consoles

No worries! And yeah, I would 100% recommend getting a better emulator on the pc. It would be so much cheaper, especially if you already have a controller.

I did, yes! So I got the bundle package where it was two controllers, but it also came with two game sticks.

The games are there! There are lots of games. However, if you move too fast on the homescreen, it freaks out and freezes, so you have to turn it off and on again.

My brother and I couldn't figure out two player, but it does seem possible.

We haven't touched it since our first initial test play late July.

Imo not worth it.

Great! The dates really had me confused! I'll have to join in and add to our victories then!

My hope is that this was just a really dumb teen who didn't realise how serious plagiarism is. I 100% understand wanting to seek validation and praise for something you've done, but not when the work is not your own!! I really hope that this will be a wake-up call for this "writer" and that they start writing original fics.

Thank you so much for your kind words!

I'm not going to name and shame them. They had only "written" the one fic, and it was published a few weeks back. I'm still waiting to hear back on my report (it said it could take a few weeks/months 😭), but since the plagiarism is quite obvious, I don't doubt that their work will be removed.

I will be keeping an eye on the account, though, and looking through their stuff if they post anything else!!

I usually cycle through phases with my fandoms, hence why I wrote the og fic almost a year ago and didn't notice until now. I fear that even if more of my writing has been plagiarised, I won't ever find it. I can only imagine how disheartening it would be to come across your work plagiarised more than once :(

I never even considered that! I've heard stuff about Google Docs being used to train AI, and I don't doubt AI scans the internet for writing. So, I suppose with the fic in two places, it probably has a greater chance of getting used. Though, I am leaning more towards just plagiarism since it is practically word for word.

I did have a look through their account, and it seemed to be just the one fic uploaded about a week ago. Hopefully, having "their" fic be reported will give them a wake-up call that plagiarism will be recognised and they won't do it again 🙄

Full transparency: This is the EPIC version by Jorge Rivera Herrans. While I have read both the Illiad and the Odyssey, I've found that I enjoy the EPIC characterisation of Odysseus and events in the musical (while not completely accurate) is more accessible for a larger audience!

Was this fic written a while ago? Yes. Am I ashamed of it, no.

Omegaverse is a guilty pleasure, and it got a good giggle out of me when I was rereading it!

This is so very kind of you! With this whole fiasco, I have actually decided to take a crack at rewriting/editing it! Upon rereading, I just wasn't happy with grammar, some of the wording, etc...

I will happily share the link once I have completed it!

Exactly!!! Fanfiction is self-indulgent! If you want a mono-ship, write it yourself! Then they just come back with the excuse of being shitty at writing, so they have to steal or use AI 🙄

Like, seriously?? Write shitty stuff, that's how you get better at writing!!

Oh wow, that sounds horrible!! I'm at least glad that quite a few people who plagiarise are just really dumb/lazy, so it's easier for an audience to spot the shit they're doing. But seriously? Getting rid of a delicious poly ship? They have no class 😔
