First, when you want to incorporate something that belongs to someone else, you need to make an attribution, even if it is nothing more than a // line. Personally, instead of plagiarizing wholesale and claiming it as original, I'd write a rediscovery story and incorporate the attribution. That way, you'd be able to use the, they didn't have the technology back then, method.
Second, you might want to give thought to how you are going to protect yourself from the radiation buildup since most current theory speculates that you'd be fried by the drive, the bubble effectively becoming an air fryer with your ship in the middle.
Heh I don't think they intended to claim rights to the technology via an RP post here. Perhaps a small shout out might have been appropriate. I'm not opposed to seeing more actual science worked into things here though. I would assume the diagram was to try and put some kind of scientific back ground to the theory behind our own FTL drives. Is that formula taken from Alcubierre? Never saw that stuff before, looks cool though!
As to your temperature problem, it really depends on what level of technology we have available. Odds are they aren't actually going to have a practical drive without the use of more refined quantum fields that in theory should be able to dissipate any heat, and even re-capture the energy for use under control. Not that you'd need it by then, the only way it would work is with a fusion fueled power source.
Once we can control gravity, we should also be able to use the basics of the very same technology to offset most of our other problems, but that does require an extremely precise field projection ability.
I wouldn't put too much thought into it.
No one's trying to plagiarize someone else's scientific work, let alone solve the implications of travelling within Alcubierre Bubble.
It's just a piece of RP by a research-based faction, meant to put some science-y flavor into what they do.
Most people here won't even see their write-up as anything more than fancy technobabble.

Nobody has to attribute anything in a SciFi game where stolen pictures and references are all over the entire game and especially forum. Read up few infocards and start yelling at devs why didn't they make a // for stuff that was made-up somewhere else, just renamed. I would also love to see the scientific community filing a complaint about a SciFi Roleplay game posting a renamed version of the said drive and using it in-game.
And I assume this infocard gives enough protection: The D5-2A "Ranseur" Outcast Dreadnought
Overwhelming size, firepower and shielding to shrug off the fires of burning stars.

I don't see how this particular case is wrong in a community with thriving copypaste and imports and will make patent holders go after heads of certain community members because of these copypastes.
Nothing's wrong with it, deal with it.
Peace, being the distant dream it is, comes inevitably, and goes hand in hand with justice.

I did "deal with it". I identified a problem, then I offered multiple possible solutions.
As to eating a sandwich, sound advice to a number of people. You lot have made a remarkable number of unfounded presumptions.
If I had been looking for punitive actions, I would have tried filing a forum violation, although, to be honest, I don't think that there is anything in violation of the forum rules.
My use of the word "need" was founded in the idea of courtesy to the material's author, not in worries of copyright.
I can certainly see where someone that doesn't know the OP and who's first interaction is snide comments and "deal with it" would have problems comprehending manners. You have my sympathies, it must make life unnecessarily difficult for you.
Given that the radiation build up has been RL stated as sufficient to destroy a star system after a significant voyage, I figured that would want addressing. It could certainly be ignored, I personally had just thought it the kind of thing that offers an easy source of "technobabble".

I think being at the heart of a star might be a bit more problematic, which is more inline with what we are talking about.
