novindalf | Is it possible to block someone from an open community on LJ?

25djadja has been repeatedly stealing my icons, modifying them slightly, and then claiming as her own - all without asking or crediting me. I asked her to stop doing it, she denied she was doing it, and has since continued doing it. I commented on her latest batch where she'd stolen my icons, only for the comment to be promptly deleted, me blocked from commenting on her journal, and me blocked from PM-ing her. Frankly I'm pissed off with her stealing my work, and I'd like to block her from viewing my graphics comm so that she can't do it to me any more. Is this even possible? I don't want to have to make my comm private =/

Oh, and jsyk, here are the icons of mine she's stolen, and 'her' icons made from mine. It's not just me she's taken icons from -

sky_magenta,

julie_izumi,

biliki,

theladymorgan,

ladykate63,

jammeke,

confessoralana,

schryosel,

nim4, responsiveness (on RHFC),

alisea_dream, nightwatchman89 (on RHFC),

simply_aly,

equanimousicons,

themirrorofsin &

liona5 have all had their work stolen, and these are just the 72 icons we know about so far. My icons are on the left, 'hers' are on the right, and all match up perfectly in PowerPoint.

(labelled rh1113an, which is how I labelled my icon, funnily enough)

>>>

(very particular contrast levels on this icon, because I got the cap from a fanvid)

>>>

(see the slightly green complexion Marian has? that's from a texture I put over my icon here)

It's that last one that REALLY annoys me, but I'm rather hacked off about all of them tbh. I don't fucking care if her icons look better, I'm pissed off and she shouldn't be doing it. [/rant for now]

She called you names? o_O That's lower than low.

I'm browsing through her posts but haven't found anything yet - do you remember where or when she posted those icons?

I just found two more. I've also noticed more than a few remakes of other people's icons other than the maker's you posted above. Can't this be reported or something?

Doing my best - have posted at mod_20in20, theladymorgan and I have contacted various 20in20 mods where she'd entered with stolen icons and got her disqualified and/or banned, the guyxmarian mods are discussing the issue atm, and I'm going to post at iconrants and cheap_knockoffs. I don't think there's any way we can report her officially, but I think if we let enough icon-makers etc. know then we might be able to dissuade her.

Which other users have you found? I'm trying to let the individual users know as well

Oh yes. It was quite a colourful message =/

Sure, there's icons of yours in the following posts:

http://25djadja.livejournal.com/7211.html (I think)

That's some pretty good work you've done so far, thanks!

The fourth one, third row in this link belongs to alisea_dream I think.

Yep it does, and I've found a few more of hers too =/
