@WilletteDo you know who is that Pine Cone steam user who uploaded the Willette Mod to the Steam Workshop?Since there have been quite a few cases lately of author impersonation for Workshop uploads, I feel I should ask. Especially since that's certainly not ThatBum.

Well that's not Willette's steam, and as far as i know not Bum's either so....Do these guys even think when they post the thing?

This happened to TehMugwump's, Kiopho's and TheDanaAddams' mods, at least. TehMugwump opened a thread in the mods forum to ask about how this would be handled, and JoeW said this situation was not something they had considered, asking that for now these cases were just reported to them.Strangely, this thread seems to have been deleted (I browsed the mods forum trying to find it and looked at JoeW's posts over the last month, but there's no trace of it).It's quite sad someone "stole" the mod in such a way (I'm still waiting for Willette's confirmation, but it sure looks that way), since Willette's mod is the 4th highest rated mod in the Workshop, and has 4,385 subscribers!

And if those guys have requests or problems with the mod that Pine Cone guy can't help them because he has no idea how to do it :|

Yes. I just found chromiumboy's Abigail coop there under the user Desblat (which even wrote "by Desblat" in the mod's title). And there are two quite obvious things that show Desblat is most certainly not chromiumboy:

[*]Desblat has only uploaded a single mod.

[*]The mod's description is both in English and in Russian. chromiumboy is Australian.

Chromiumboy has put so much work into that mod, just to have it stolen by some fool. I hope they will crack down on this
