Plagiarism is infrequent, but it happens, and when it does it usually gets uncovered by a reader who's seen the original. When that happens things are settled - usually amicably - between the powers that be at the top of the tree. <BR/>To say that it's a slur on AP is ridiculous.

It’s interesting you’re grabbing onto this non-event though, and not taking me up on the offer of emailing your comments through for posting, as it tells me you’re losing the argument rather than making your original point.<BR/><BR/>I haven’t made any “groundless, libellous allegations against everyone who ever worked for Amiga Power”. I’ve said that one guy took one of my articles, tweaked the beginning slightly, and gave it to AP to publish. I imagine it’s not the kind of thing you brag about, so there’s nothing to suggest that AP or the other writers knew about. I’ve also said it’s a guy who no longer works in the industry, so it obviously isn’t a “big name” like you or Gillen. Face it Stuart, it’s time for you to shit or get off the pot.
