Alright so some of you know I'm on allpoetry.com (well actually, maybe only Brandie knows, I don't know) ... anyway, some girl commented on my poem "Love is Only Language When It's Real" saying she really liked it. So usually when someone I don't know likes me poetry I check out their profile. I went to her website (which is her myspace) and I saw her latest blog was titled the same as my poem. Low and behold, she had posted my poem there without saying she or I wrote it. So I responded "hmm...this is awfully familiar ..." and then she goes "I forgot to say who wrote it and I've been trying to fix it for hours but myspace wasn't working" ... stupid people and their excuses. Read the real comments at www.myspace.com/kendalbaldwin and click her latest blog. |

This is quite familiar to me......idiotic people and their excuses. That was the same game the chick that posted my poem as her own tried to play. Its all bull, really. Stupid plagarizing *incoherant rumbling*

I just checked, and it is all fixed now. As I say though, at least you have something worth stealing, but still...

the nerve of some people.... how can one possibly simply "forget" to credit someone for their work? well i'm glad she's decided to properly credit you in the end.

It scares me that we live in a world with people who have got the nerve to do that and think no one will find out. And then make up silly excuses! Glad to see she changed it though, but if I were her I'd feel pretty embarrassed.
