Plagiarism on Steam Workshop

I was browsing the workshop and I have noticed one particular user has plagiarized several of other's post. Even down to the description.

This popular download of the Millennium Falcon was stolen as well. Even the creator of the original called it out, but it has yet to be removed.

Can something be done about this? It is obvious reporting isn't doing anything. Really shameful that a lot of people have put hard work into these only for others to pass it as their own.

I've banned the copies from the Workshop. I'll look into whether I can remove upload privileges from accounts.

Reports seem to not be working. I'll try to pass it along and hopefully someone from Valve will look into it. In the meantime if there are other issues post them on the forums and I'll take care of it.

Wow, that was a very quick reply and response! Thanks!
