Why would people try to claim work that isn't their own anyways? (I mean in this context, I don't think we get any monetary compensation for sharing and any "Fame" or recognition that might be obtained seems like it would evaporate quickly once the fraud is exposed and reported...)

Since steam is easy to use and all, just use the report button like already stated.
Eventually people will upload and claim that its their own, thats just nature and it will happen. It's sad but you see this kind of behaviour in all sorts of contents on the net, from pictures, logo's, covers etc.

Still wonder what incentive people would have to engage in such behavior...
I think that has to go on a case by case basis and how much change was made. I myself am going to get ideas from other people, just like anyone else. Use personal judgement on whether or not it's been changed enough to upload, and if you have doubts, don't, or make sure to give credit to the original author for the basis of your content.
No, more than that. It's more than just inspiration if you're actually using their content as a base for yours. Give specifics of what the original content was and whose it was.
This thread is so funny.
I just imagined "Celebrity" Fanpeople controlling the workshop. Just woke up and had a real laugh. Thank you.
But to be serious. Sharing things for free means losing the control and making Frontier "to deal" with it or picking up torches and pitchforks is not a good idea. 30 years experience of sharing in funfair modelling. So I know what i am talking about. My advice would be in this case:

and just don't use it.

Reading this thread it sounds to me like the general masses are being discouraged from sharing their creations on the workshop here. The master builder people are good but don't have a monopoly on this. Everyone should have a chance to shine.
Not a bad idea, tag the blueprint "Made by XXX" - however I don't see a problem with others editing and saving it out to their workshop as long the tag of the original remains there - this will let collaboration on a project possible, however I can't see that being possibly unless the blueprint in game remains tagged, even after removing a lamp or adding a window.
We just have to be kind and share and get along, or don't subscribe to the ones you don't know about.
what? i think you greatly misunderstood, I am speaking about the ACTUAL PIECE that was plopped from the blueprint not every pieces ever used again, cmon now your smarter than that.
So, to copy they'd have to download it from the workshop, and simply re-upload it right?
How about PC gets a system that prevents re-uploads of blueprints downloaded from the workshop? And then maybe you can re-upload if you change some parts of the blueprint, unless that causes a issue where someone re-uploads with an extra prop attached instead of making an actual change.
