Someone copied/stole my discussion!!!  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 91/100. veronizm (560)   ranked 4,470 out of 27,468 in mylot.com 3 years ago

Okay, someone copied my discussion here in myLot!!! It's on another website though and the "copier" is not from myLot...Or I'm not quite so sure about that! Here's what happened:

I was browsing through the internet for reviews about atsiam.com. I've actually posted a separated discussion here in myLot a few days ago asking the Lotters if someone has booked with atsiam.com to see if their service is good or not. So anyway, as I mentioned I was browsing just a moment ago if there are other sites that have reviews about atsiam.com. I googled "atsiam.com booking good". Naturally, I saw my myLot post being populated by google search results. What I didn't expect is that populated in the list before mine was my exactly the same post but on a different website! I clicked on the site and saw my myLot discussion being posted by another person on another website every single word of it without even trying to paraphrase it or something! I don't know but I felt like I was being robbed or something! What I hate though is that I don't know if I should feel that way. I mean, am I just overreacting? After all, it's my own composition, right? Though I wouldn't really call it a "composition" technically and all but still...

Here's the website by the way in case you'd wanna look it up (note: not a referral link): http://my.chinese.cn/en/s...

Yep...looks like they posted it about 4-5 days after you posted it here.

All I can suggest is you contact admin at the other site and tell them about it...don't know if it will do you any good, but...


myLot reputation of 91/100. veronizm (560)   ranked 4,470 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  3 years ago

Yeah, I guess I could do that. Well, I don't really care in case it wouldn't do any good...at least I can do my part. Thanks Lamb! :)

I saw your discussion, what I have to say about that, it's just some one who is just too lazy to think for them selves, and this really get my blood boiling, when I see someone stealing from someone else, who have worked hard at posting a discussion, and then here come some lazy, no good person, stealing your work, calling it their own you thief.sadthumbdown


myLot reputation of 91/100. veronizm (560)   ranked 4,470 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  3 years ago

I know! I really hate lazy people stealing our hardships. It's in-your-face cheating! I hate cheaters! All my life! Boo to all the cheaters!!!

It's really annoying, but it's also funny. I don't understand why the person want to copy or steal your discussion.

I have not found the meaning or the value to steal a discussion. anyway i think if you have time you should tell the relative sites about it.

I would not bother it because i have limited time but I definitely support you.

some people are really need to get lessons for the cheating.


myLot reputation of 91/100. veronizm (560)   ranked 4,470 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  3 years ago

Thanks so much blossom! I'm really glad I have a friend's support :) I tried reporting it to the relative site but unfortunately, you need to be a member of their website in order to report a specific discussion. I tried emailing their admin though...I also tried informing the myLot staff. I guess we'll just have see how it will go in the next few days...

Oh! That's bad. Isn't there any way to take some action against that person? Maybe mylot staffs can help you. I don;t know what I'm talking about but maybe they will. It's not easy to start a discussion. And it's embarrassing to find someone has copied it! Grrr!


myLot reputation of 91/100. veronizm (560)   ranked 4,470 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  3 years ago

I know! Well, I just sent a message to myLot staff about it. Maybe they can help. We'll just see how it would go...


myLot reputation of 96/100. invisiblelady (271)   ranked 14,764 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  3 years ago

How was it? Did the staff replied to your message? Hope they could help you out with this one. Good luck!

This sort of thing happens quite often but people just don't notice it.
The best thing to do is to contact the admin of the site where your content was posted.
Include a link to your original post here.
If they are any good they will remove the copied content from their site.
Mylot remove copied stuff from here if you report it to them.


myLot reputation of 91/100. veronizm (560)   ranked 4,470 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  3 years ago

Hi mike! That's what I tried to do. Unfortunately, I can't report it since you need to be a member of the website in order to report any discussion. What I did though is email their admin which I found on their "Contact" link. I also informed the myLot staff about it. Hopefully there's something they can do. I mean, this thing would not only affect me but the whole myLot community, and website, as well.

if that happened here in mylot, i think it is not that difficult to run after that person. we can always report this to the admin if we find irregularities and abuses like this. we can do something. but with your situation, i guess you can also do that with the site's admin by contacting them. only, we never know what will be their reaction to that. well, try it.


myLot reputation of 91/100. veronizm (560)   ranked 4,470 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  3 years ago

Hi neil! Yup, I just emailed the site admin a few minutes ago. I don't know what they're gonna do about it but we'll see how it goes...

If you are just over reacting how does that solve the problem of plagarism? I wouldn't say that you are over reacting at all. I hope you let the site and the person know what was going on. It needs to be resolved. And the site needs to know this is going on. Competition doesn't even come into it! Competition is when two people are competing not two people using the same thing!


myLot reputation of 91/100. veronizm (560)   ranked 4,470 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  3 years ago

You are absolutely right celticeagle! Simple things like these should not be tolerated as these could lead to a much worse version if not stopped. Who knows, this could lead to big time plagiarism in the future. And this doesn't only affect me but myLot as well! Thank you for believing on how I reacted! I did let the site know about the situation thru email. I guess I'd just have to wait in a few days maybe if they'd do something about it.


myLot reputation of 98/100. celticeagle (15765)   ranked 1,572 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  3 years ago

You can't let them get too cockey or they will take over and be able to do big deals on the internet.

So a person named deny copied your post? This person should be reported. I think you are not overreacting at all. I suggest you contact the admin of that site and inform the mylot admin too.


myLot reputation of 91/100. veronizm (560)   ranked 4,470 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  3 years ago

Thanks angelajoy! Yes, I emailed the site admin about it and gave them the needed links. I also informed mylot admin. We'll see how it goes.

You are not overreacting my dear!! They are all right, you may want to report this thing to the admin of that other site and they shall take necessary actions. If I may share, it happened to me too. I co-own a fragrance business and I run several advertisements in the papers and in the internet about our fragrance dealership. I was browsing one day, I guess I used google, typed "fragrance business" and was happy to see my advertisements there. Then I came across one advertisement that exactly looked like ours--texts, format, color and size of the fonts, even the pictures!! They just edited the contact number, the company name, and the brand name on the picture. It got me fuming mad. I reported it to the admin right away. I checked my email for response and they replied saying they took necessary actions already. When I checked the copier's site, the ads was deleted already. And when I searched for her username, it says it does not exist. Oh well, at least the admin deleted it already.


myLot reputation of 91/100. veronizm (560)   ranked 4,470 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  3 years ago

Hi ellovire! Thank you! I'm so glad to hear that it worked well on your case which is much more on a higher degree. Most especially that it's a business! Now what that person did to you was really obviously plagiarism. It's a good thing that the admin of the site deleted the "copied" advertisement! I just reported my situation to the site admin and mylot a few minutes ago. Hopefully something good will come up.

Hi Vero,

I t was happened so many times and there are many more peoples
would copy such a things from others and would entered into other
siteconfusedso you have the rights to inform to the administration
of that particular site and would request to block that person those who
are posted your articles there. As you have knew that this was one of
the very cheating action and would notwub be tolerated any any
more , so take the action at your earliestglare.

Have a wonderful day.


myLot reputation of 91/100. veronizm (560)   ranked 4,470 out of 27,468 in mylot.com  3 years ago

Thanks Binthu! Yes, things such as these should be reported and cheating should not be tolerated. I already informed the site admin about the situation a few minutes ago and I also informed myLot as well. Hope I could hear a positive feedback from both parties.
