Found this on [livejournal.com profile] suzvoy and [livejournal.com profile] scribblinlenore's ljs:

[livejournal.com profile] boyan_fraser (memorize that name folks) is plagiarizing Thamiris in stories, posts, and comments.

...wow. It takes a distinct lack of basic decency to try something like that. And not what I would call the cream of the intelligence crop, considering, hey, Thamiris. Not exactly a non-recognizable source.

ETA: Plagiarizing fiction, plagiarizing livejournal entries, plagiarizing comments, and naming his livejournal after hers. Yes, I would like to state, this is a first for me to see, when someone plagiarizes another person's life.

There are links in fandom-lounge, should you be so moved as to wish to express your displeasure.

I can't believe he's plagiarizing her LJ entries. God, how low can you go?

I thought it was sick when someone plagiarized one of the stories written by an old friend in SW fandom who now has Alzheimer's.

This is amazingly upsetting. I cannot imagine the type of scum who would stoop to such acts. There aren't words to describe my disgust.

It's just so horribly ghoulish and sad.

Later, when I have time, I think I'll go reread some of Tham's cheerfully pornographic and blasphemous stuff.

I didn't know Thamiris, but I don't think that stops me feeling aghast that someone could even begin to think of stealing her words, her journal, her comments in this way. It defies belief, and that's a state of mind I thought that several years on the internet had beaten out of me. Dear Lord.

From: [identity profile] sparktastic.livejournal.com Date: 2008-01-04 03:46 pm (UTC)
Man, this is so surreal, I'm wondering if it's not some sort of sociological experiment, instead of a sincere attempt at either malicious intent or overwhelming stupidity.

I mean.

It's too thorough, somehow.
ratcreature: WTF!? (WTF!?)

From: [personal profile] ratcreature Date: 2008-01-04 04:17 pm (UTC)
But what kind of "experiment" is this supposed to be to repost the LJ of a dead person and claiming it like a ghoul? I mean, it's definitely planned from the start, what with the first entry being an almost exact copy of her first, the second too, and every entry I looked at.

I'm not sure the person wrote a single original thing. I just checked back to their first entries last summer, and even those are already Tham's: here (http://thamiris.livejournal.com/745.html?style=mine) - his (http://boyan-fraser.livejournal.com/925.html) ; his (http://boyan-fraser.livejournal.com/1035.html) - here (http://thamiris.livejournal.com/8122.html?style=mine)

it'd be really bizarre if it weren' so sad....
ratcreature: RatCreature is shocked. (o.O!)

From: [personal profile] ratcreature Date: 2008-01-04 05:16 pm (UTC)
There's actually plagiarism of other people's comments just to be able to reuse thamiris' replies. I think that's the first time I've seen a plagiarist just c&p old commentthreads instead of at least creating sockpuppets to fake popularity.

I can't even begin to state how I feel about this. How can you take someone else's thoughts, not just creative work, but personal thoughts and claim them as your own? It makes me nauseous. It's like psychological rape. This is unbelievable.

Sick and weird- she passed away in April and he started plagiarizing from her in June.

I've seen people speculate that the excuse/reason he's going to give is the "It's a social experiment!!1!@!" one. But this (http://wanton-erato.livejournal.com/8538.html?thread=122202&style=mine#t122202) inclines me to think that this is just someone who wants to make a splash in fandom, couldn't because of the lack of language skills, and decided to use someone else's work to do it. I wonder if he genuinely didn't realize that she had been in fandom for years and years and had such a large number of readers, and thought that since she was dead, he would be safe from being caught. Though he started plagiarizing the LJ posts and comments only a couple of months after she died, he did wait until now to start on the fanfic. That's just my speculation, I could totally be wrong.

From: [personal profile] ratcreature Date: 2008-01-04 05:51 pm (UTC)
Not really. I checked the other fanfic he posted, and that was one plagiarized from thamiris as well, like in August "A Measure of Now I (Ares/Iphicles, NC-17)":
http://boyan-fraser.livejournal.com/29617.html
which was posted by her in November 2001:

Hmm. I do, but not good ones. Since I'm at work, I don't have a cap program, which means basically printscreen/paste to word. About 87 pages of Word, plus some June etnries, plus page three comments.

However, I did the lj itself through back 60.

I...have no idea what to do with this. *frowns* stupid work.
