I got an email the other day asking to either give credit or remove a post. She gave a snarky remark about me being in 'bad taste' by not giving her credit. I clicked on the link she provided and was sent back in time. Back to 2003... when the thread was created. This shit wasn't even current. I don't post things without giving credit so I was pretty miffed. In the FIRST line of the thread I stated that it was something I found on MSN. You know, one of those life style posts that people send their work in to be published. It was so old that the link was no longer valid. I also placed the 'meat' of the post in quotes. The reason is that a lot of threads go dead fast and I wanted some referrence kept. Considering it was so old I simply removed the quoted bit, but kept the referrence to the dead link so she could she there was credit given. It wasn't good enough. Apparently she thought her name should have been there. Oh give me a break. I quote parts of news articles all the time and link back to the source: the website I got it from. It's not like I'm quoting from some book. These websites (MSN, CNN, Local news stations, etc...) PAY people for their articles. They want recognition? Write a fucking novel. Bah! I'm done... |
