I had someone apply to our server through the forum post, join my server and Discord, then copied our description, activities and methods for his own server. Also copied our entire Discord channel layout.
We have a long standing community with many players. He even enjoyed a UHC matchup with another server one weekend.
Like for like copying isn't permitted, but members may be inspired by each other. If a member has copied your post substantially, in a way that may confuse other members, i.e: "Didn't I already read this before? oh, it must be the same server." then please report it and a moderator will determine if any action should be taken.
