When you save a level you get to put an ''ID'' or basically an creators name into a box which once put in can no be changed. This could also be used for NPCs with a box that can not be changed, by doing this, we can stop stealing material and stop the ''I made that'' ''no you didnt'' arguments. Maybe instead of adding a name it puts in the account name, I dont know!
2.) Encryption
When you save the level you should have some sort of option like this:
[] Access NPCs and Detail
[] Close off Access to NPCs and Detail
Which would basically stop you copying NPCs becuase they would not be viewable which would encourage people to show their works on the forums without having it stolen. Maybe you could make a password to bypass the encryption blocking so you can edit bits if you wanted to. Also with it closed off you couldnt use the cursor to select tiles to copy/paste to stop level copying.

The second thing is possible, and I thing that should really have that, I posted here about that sometime ago..
I really would like to post scripts here on forums, without people copying or something
