Thomas P's Top 50

Daniel M had a nice sense of smell to notice that some sections of the comments could have come from other sources.

I guess he quoted him without saying so when talking about his favorite movies

Believe me, it goes much deeper than that.

Thank Skepsis too, he alerted me to a potential problem recently and only confirmed by suspicions that something wasn't right. Unfortunately this thread is only a small example of some of the effort that has gone into coming across as a critic, there are much greater examples of this too, unfortunately.

This is a shame, because I did like Thomas, but I really, really hate people who steal other peoples work and pass it off on their own. It's not fair, illegal and also gives people an unfair advantage other those who genuinely put effort into writing their own stuff. I don't want this to come across as a personal attack, but I feel you guys have a right to know about this when we are all commenting, discussing and giving rep for his work, it feels like I have been cheated and I am honestly disgusted at some of the stuff I have seen.

We're looking into this. Thread closed, for the time being.
