Can you report someone for plagiarizing a game guide?

acutally I believe SOE owns the rights to anything posted on these boards, so I dont think there is any copywright infringement. As far as stealing the ideas, other than not citing the original post it really doesn't overtly state that he authored it instead of the original author. In fact he may have thought it would be a recognizable guide and not necessary to cite it. Unless the original author feels slighted at all I wouldnt think this would be a big deal.

I noticed someone over at the Force Sensitive board copied and pasted guides of others and claimed it as their own. I was wondering the same thing. Doubt anything will be done about it, but certainly has been noted. Kinda sinking to a real low, huh?
