And by posts, I mean blogs... MY blogs. Or yours of course!

I'm sure lots of you guys have had their projects, blogs, skins, and more copied. (I've had some blogs of mine.) And we all know that it is VERY annoying. Yet, sometimes, they COPY IT... AND MAKE IT BETTER. You might be wondering, "WTF. If they can make my blog better AND copy it without anyone noticing, 1) I should do it to. 2) That's so wrong or 3) Why... WHY?

Well, for one, I take it as a compliment. If they actually take the TIME to read, copy, and justify your post, it means that THEY LIKE IT. They wanna become popular themselves by copying a good post. Here's an example blog post that has been copied by me and gotten more popular: http://www.planetminecraft.com/blog/pmc-advertisements/ (Unoriginal)

http://www.planetminecraft.com/blog/advertisements-on-pmc/ (Mine, Original)

If ya don't believe me look at the date posted. NOTE: IT COULD BE A COINCIDENCE THAT SOMEBODY HAD TAKEN YOUR WORK. FOR EXAMPLE, SOMEONE BEFORE ME COULD HAVE USED THIS TOPIC BEFORE WITHOUT ME KNOWING IT.

In this case, its no problem. Don't report a topic unless you are 100% sure its fully copied. If your not and they just copied, report saying that it could just be by chance. Because if you report it saying it was originally yours and they copied it, the Mods might find ANOTHER older topic of the same subject. (Don't wanna report yourself you know)

Anyways, just think of it as a compliment, that people looked at your post and said, "Huh, seems legit." Now if they make it better and copy it, again, that's a different story. It's still morally wrong. I know, it can get on your nerves... A LOT. But just remember, that NOBODY can live a life cheating before getting caught.
