2015 Recruiting Season is in full swing

I'm going to discount anything you post and mock you as a thief if you don't give attribution. People put a lot of work into the stuff they develop and deserve credit. I will also touch base with Aaron and ask to shut down your account if you don't quit stealing from others and not offering attribution. How's that for a response to a really crappy comment?
I probably post more tweets than anyone here.  The primary reason for posting them in that format, even though it takes more time to do it, is so that the originator gets credit.  With twitter, it can be tough to know that some or even most of the time, but the effort is there.

Secondly, everything on that other board you reference is taken from somewhere else.  The item you reference today, they took from 247, which you can see if you take the time to look at your own copy.

Lastly, as a published writer myself, I agree with the idea generally however your attempt here is misguided, incorrect and reflects more upon your own issues than anyone else's.

Literally the first line in his post says that they are taken from 247.

 
Appreciate that, but lets just let it go

And not derail the recruiting thread

Which is (sadly) supposed to die today anyways

We will see

Reminder: This thread is going to be locked today.

We really want threads dedicated to individual recruits, but if members also want to do a WEEKLY thread that is for other updates, go for it. But please start one on a weekly basis (which will keep it from being overly large and too long to get the info folks want/need).

Is this like a "discount double check", discount¿¿¿¿¿

Just offer attribution. Others make their own choices and live with their decisions. Whatever my issues might be, they have no connection with the theft of the work of other writers.

 
Juan Grande attributes everything he posts on this board near as I can tell. If you want to bark on the citing issue, may want to direct your attention at utisdabomb12, although he doesn't cite only on rare occasions. For someone who considers himself of a distinguished class, you sure do make yourself look like a fool on a consistent basis.

Looks like Juan is going to be starting a new thread every week. Sorry Juan.

Going to lock the most popular thread in the history of the site.  Makes sense?
