Case #9 - Clingey

So this is the case about Clingey.

Yes she is the girl that  "innocently" made her username "BunnyShocks" and cause quite an uproar for coying Bunnysock's name.

You might also know her as Kawaiicrush.

Anyways one day in the Critique and Pricing thread Clingey posted these two icons below.


WOW both of these icons look very familiar to these two made by Frailty do they not?

Clingey's Icon #1
Frailty's Icon #1
Clingey's Icon #2
Clingey's Icon #3









No not just familiar she obviously took the borders from Frailty's icons and slapped them on her own creation. 
I mean you have to be blind not to see it

Well someone caught on but a stunned Clingey does her best to deny that she ever took anything from Frailty.

Later Clingey makes a shop (which was deleted before I could screencap it) and then tries to pass off this icon as original work.


Again this icon has the border taken from an icon made by Frailty! Not just that but the loading bar was taken from lollirot's icon.

You can see by the overlay animation below how perfectly the borders match up.

Clingey tried her hardest to prove that it was just some sort a coincidence that all these borders seemed to match up perfectly and she didn't steal them just was "inspired" by them. However, FOUR thefts make it kind of hard to give someone the benefit of the doubt.

She eventually admitted her theft.
Today she claims that she has learned her lesson and that stealing stuff gets got her nowhere and she is very sorry.

We truly hope you've learned your lesson.

  1. That pending is an add-on. It's not stolen
