Rules of blogging?
   
 
Edited on Mon May-30-11 12:20 AM by brettdale
Okay I did a Blog post, there were comments and I commented in reply to one those comments, someone has now copied and pasted my comment as a post on their blog,

They didnt take credit for the post, at the top they had just added, this is real response, im not making it up.

Is that good form??? and should they be blasting it over all social media sites that they belong to.

Im a small blogger and get 50 hits a day, this person blogs must get several hundred to a thousand.

Now I know what you are thinking, Mr. Pitt strikes again.   I was about to register at the DU to ask if it was indeed Mr. Pitt who plagiarized this poor slob's thoughts, when I read the rest of the thread:

9. I contacted this blogger
   
And they told me, Its the internet and it served me right for being a arse.



Poor misfit wrote something to be ridiculed, is being called out on it by another more popular blog and is crying bad form.

Well, I see this other blogger's cut and paste of your work dear brettdale, and raise it to a real live website with thousands of hits a day. 

You're really special now.   No need to  thank me.  I am a giver that way.    O-)

Was the comment so ridiculous that the Blogger who reposted it was making fun of the OP?

DUmmy brettdale sounds like he's on an intellectual par with stevenumbers.

A link to what he is whining about:

And the OP's blog where the other blogger pwns him.

As for 'mansplaining' being a buzz-word? The reason why you hear the term "mansplainer" so much is because you're one of the most perfect examples of a mansplainer actually commenting on NZ feminist blogs right now. If there was a NZ feminist dictionary under the term Mansplainer it would say: See: Brett Dale. That's how much of a rampant mansplainer you are.

You have this mentality that feminist bloggers should be thankful that you troll their sites endlessly. It's ridiculous. We don't need the traffic. We don't feel honoured that you've stopped by YET AGAIN.

You don't ever just state your opinion. You state it repeatedly, over and over again, like you want to bludgeon the poor blogger to death with it. You tell people who know far, far, far more about a subject that actually, you know better than them because you've thought about it for half a second. You constantly and consistently tell feminist bloggers that actually, you know about - insert issue that pretty much only impacts women here - and you know they're wrong. Even though they *KNOW* what it's like to be a woman and face sexism and you DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT IS LIKE.

That annoys people. And it REALLY annoys feminist bloggers, though it does show why we have the term mansplainer in our vocabulary and why we have to use it.

This guy Brett Dale has a blog?  He's incapable of putting together a sentence in English.  At any rate, he sounds like a real douchebag.

Hi I did the rules of Blogging post over at DU, I post on several different forums, I'm from New Zealand.  Copywrite is a big issue over here, it doesn't matter
if you have a large blog or a small one.  I put the question Rules of Blogging on several forums, just to get feedback, most feedback was helpful.

Cheers
Brett Dale

I am having a hard time believing your blog is Copyrighted.   

You must know your comments at the DU, or here are not correct?

All the information I was told, stated that a blog post is copyrighted if you are the blog owner, but people werent sure about the comment sections.

Yah, well, good luck with that lawsuit, bud.

Of course I'm not bringing a lawsuit, I was just more curious about the law.

The exactly what recourse do you seek?  Hat tips are generally a matter of courtesy, but if someone wants to lift your shit without attribution, such is life.  Good luck proving it.

I seek none, I thought it was wrong to do it, and someone else told me it's actually probably illegal.

I really don't see how.  As this person just copy and pasted your commentary to be ridiculed, which pretty much anyone can do under "fair use":

Quote
The 1961 Report of the Register of Copyrights on the General Revision of the U.S. Copyright Law cites examples of activities that courts have regarded as fair use: “quotation of excerpts in a review or criticism for purposes of illustration or comment; quotation of short passages in a scholarly or technical work, for illustration or clarification of the author’s observations; use in a parody of some of the content of the work parodied; summary of an address or article, with brief quotations, in a news report; reproduction by a library of a portion of a work to replace part of a damaged copy; reproduction by a teacher or student of a small part of a work to illustrate a lesson; reproduction of a work in legislative or judicial proceedings or reports; incidental and fortuitous reproduction, in a newsreel or broadcast, of a work located in the scene of an event being reported.”

Cool thanks for the info. I still think its morally wrong to post an entire commentary without providing a link or a headsup to the person who wrote it.

Why, so you can get traffic and get MORE ridicule?

Nothing to do with getting traffic, down in this part of the world, its like an unwritten law, you dont post entire items from someone else blog to yours.

There are any number of political forums to follow. DU is known for extreme bigotry again Jews and Christians...AND they consistently advocate violence against those they disagree with. A fan of American politics can find many forums that are just as exciting but more mature.

I'd like to see a road trip movie with DUmmy brettdale, poor, stupid Beth, stevenumbers, and Sheila Jackson Lee.
Of course, it would be "R" rated, since stevenumbers would be constantly trying to nail Beth and Sheila.
I think Beth would probably like that.
But just imagine the escapades that would result from their combined mental power.

I'd see that movie.
