Also, it's not called stealing; it's called copying. The effect on the victim is only indirect.

I have seen them happen. I've had my own scripts stolen from ex staffers wo went to work on another classic server. Fortunately for me Graal servers are still closed source, so I could have PWA step in. If they are open source I don't have that option anymore. When I create something, I like the idea that I can choose whether or not to make it opensource by posting it in the code gallery, or keeping it private to that server.
And as far as wheter it's called stealing or copying is completely missing the point. It doesn't matter what you call it; you're still taking someone's hard work and making it so it's not -their- hard work anymore.
