Someone is copying my posts

[SalemWitchChild]

Someone copied my question about mushrooms and posted it on another dog forum. It is word for word. They didn't even change my dogs name!

Why would they do this??????????

 

[Squidbert]

That's just.. odd!

 

[SalemWitchChild]

Yeah tell me about it. I could understand if it was information that might help someone. But it was just a question.

 

[~Dixie's_Mom~]

Maybe they were trying to get answers to post here. But like previously stated. ODD! lol!

 

[Meggie]

Because they don't know the answer and they're curious maybe? Or it's somebody who will take the most intelligent answer from there and copy and paste it back to you here, as their own. Believe it or not, I've seen it happen before elsewhere and find it just...... wierd.

By the time they got answers there this thread would have been done and over with.. It takes days before anyone answers there.

Sorry but I am quite offended. If they wanted to get outside opinions they should have said "This person asked this question and what should I tell her".

Not just state the question as if he/she were the author.

Boy, I don't blame you for being offended. I would be, too. I agree they could have prefaced the question by stating that this issue had come up, and he/she was interested in knowing if anyone had any input.

Post the link to where it was posted...or PM it to me...

Salem, why not confront them in a private message and ask them?

I confronted them in the post. They did not respond.

Take it as a compliment
At least posting in the thread you have outed the poster even if they didn't respond to you.

I wouldn't take it as a compliment, considering I've had people post photos of my dogs before and impersonating me/just plain pretending they own the dogs and I don't exist. Mimicing a post word for word obviously isn't the same thing, but it's still creepy and not normal...

Yeah if their willing to steal your words their willing to steal your photo's.

 

[~Dixie's_Mom~]

I think it's AWFUL when people take people's pictures as their own. It would really p!ss me off if someone did that w/ my pictures!!!

 

[Cheetah]

Wow, this is so stupid... it seems like it takes more effort to come here, find a post to copy, and then go to another forum and post it there, as opposed to just going to the other forum and typing it out all quick by themselves lol... >9.9<

 

[SummerRiot]

It was me.. I confess lol

J/k..

that IS strange though..
Maybe they didn't really realize that your dogs name was in the post?

Yes you are right it would upset me no end too. Sorry I wasn't trying to be flippant!
