LOL, it's not a great thing to do, but apparently I'm the only one here who doesn't think you're a terrible person. Could be you're bullshitting that you changed enough to make it unrecognizable and therefore didn't really work as hard for the story, could also be that you didn't really rip off that much but can't help feeling guilty about it.

There was one time a while back when a great fic with a pretty original premise came out, and within the day it had been posted this other person in the fandom started writing a fic that was suspiciously similar, and yeah, maybe it was a coincidence, but the author only came across as more suspicious with their author's notes saying things like "I came up with this idea out of nowhere last night!" I was talking to the original author about it and we were both pretty peeved, but she said, "It's not like I wouldn't have been totally fine with her doing her own thing with the idea if she'd asked me about it, it just irritated me that she seemed to be openly denying she could have gotten the inspiration from anywhere." I think you're better than that if you at least feel guilty about it, but keep in mind that you wouldn't feel that way if you'd asked the author about it. If it's something the author probably wouldn't approve of, maybe it's too close to their idea. I don't think you committed some ethical sin, but in fandom, where we're all stealing to some extent, we have to rely on some admittedly subjective etiquette and treating other people's work the way we'd want our own work treated.

I think most people are upset over the fact that the OP re-wrote the fic *and* posted it claiming that the idea is their's [without asking the original author if it was okay by them to re-write, and give credit for the idea], than they are that the OP re-wrote it in general.

This is a good comment. I like this comment.
