Carn, if I may, please don't feel you should 'know your place' because, as long as we don't take or make it personal, this hopefully is something we can hash out without offence. For me, while I agree with CK's two points, a large part of my problem comes not from proven plagiarism or otherwise, but from limits and a lack of flexibility. If I put Gandalf the White (renamed, history rewritten) into DARP, then there are no real decisions to make, few RP choices to ponder, because he and his interactions are already defined. If someone else has Saruman, another user Radagast, another Galadriel then every RP I work with them is liable to recycle material covered by Tolkien, and here on the wiki, I feel, the idea is originality, and the weaving of new tales.
