Forum Thieves and Frauds Options

[Critter]

I ran across a post on some message board for opera singers in which this guy was STARRING as this expert on temping. The guy has posted a message that seems to me to be stolen from one of my boards, he just changed the phrasing a little bit. I actually caught this one Beauch who just lifted, word for word, a post I did to craigs list and posted it on her *hit site as if it was hers. Even after I alerted Craig and we both confronted the Beauch, she still wouldn't delete the post, she just changed the phrasing so as not to copy the exact words word for word. This is just something I don't get. I mean you are caught stealing something and you still think you have a ***king right to it? The Beauch probably has no money any way, she did get banned from craigslist so she can't promote her *hit site on craigslist anymore..

I follow a lot of messageboards, mostly for business reasons rather than out of any personal interest.

There is this one board that I follow that is about clubbing (I don't go to clubs so I felt that I needed to know what people who did go to clubs were talking about and what their interests were). It took me forever to figure out that their Tina and Tina Turner references were actually about drugs. There is a guy who posts a lot on this board, on every board there is always some guy who is like the queen bee posting loads and loads of *hit all day. Anywho, there was this guy posting on this board and the same guy also posted messages on another board (about porn) that I also observed. One time, a topic came up on the clubbing board that this guy apparently didn't know anything about and I observed him post a message on the porn board asking about the subject. When the guy got an answer to his question on the porn board, he posted to the clubbing board like he was an expert on the subject.

It is interesting to see how information goes from one board to another board to another board, and rarely does the person posting ever mentions that he got the information from another board. The person posting seems to always post a message and if it is his original idea or discovery.

And then there are the people posting who seem to have multiple identities and who post messages in response to their own message applauding themselves for their taken on things.
