(Personal note: I know this person knows they have copied me because I mentioned this in passing comments.Ā However, it doesn’t seem to be sinking in, and this blogger is wondering why I have laid back a little from reading their blog.Ā Not to sound childish and immature, but the “Quote of The Day & My Thoughts” starting tomorrow, will have a new name.Ā Ā “Quotes and Food For Thought”Ā Ā Thank you in advance.

I had noticed that person doing that. Stealing other people’s ideas is never okay.

No, it’s not. It went asfar as being told, “I’m not that creative, and I liked your title so I used that.” I was trying to be nice by saying, if a title is looked up, it might be confusing to the other readers. That was laughed off.
I wonder if we are correct on the same person.
I’m not generally a petty person, but this was principal.

I really hope so. Out of curiostiy, do you think I’m wrong in any way for doing it this way?

You’ve already tried to bring it up and didn’t get anywhere, so I think think this is a very reasonable next step.

Your curation of thoughts and your take on it will always be unique. No one can take that way from you.

Aww, Thank you, Megha. The title is the only thing to be changed. the format will remain the same.
It’s unfortunate that “I” had to change it, considering I’ve had that series under the same name for 3 years.

Then why are you changing..You had that first and the people who knows , will relate with you.

It’s alright. Again, the format is still the same, just a new twist to the name.
The person that is doing this is clueless to what she’s doing even though I told her it wasn’t right.
If by chance it happens again, then I’ll report her, block her, and that will be that.
I’m sure people will realize the change is mine, because I’ve already put it out there, and the new title will say (Formerly).
I really do appreciate you looking out for me, Megha… You’re a reall doll!!! š

I belonged to a new haiku group on Facebook. One time, the admin stole a photo from a new member, wrote his own haiku on it, and attributed the photo to someone else. Since he wouldnāt respond to PMs, the member confronted him in a post to the group. I asked this admin to explain. Hours later, he still denied that he stole a photo. I left that group and blocked him.
Always stand for the integrity of your work. Plagiarism plagues us all!

Thank you so much for sharing what happened to you, Frank.
It’s terribly unfair and this really threw me for a loop because it was being done by a blogger that I thought “We” were close.
With you, an Admin stole a photo…
I’m guess I’m just shocked over some people having no scrupples or integrity.

Had that admin stolen my photo, I would have reported him to Facebook for intellectual property theft and then blocked him.
