about

I'm young, but learning about life every single minute. I make bad decisions sometimes, but I never regret them.And though I sometimes dont know what to do, I know what I should do. Thats why I want to help people.I want to help them prevent the mistakes I'm learning on my own.So yeah, thats pretty much it.

I have a really, really big website that I work really hard on, and it gets over 1,000 visits a day. I spend a lot of time writing the site, and researching for it, and sometimes I even spend money buying newspaper articles for my research. I do it because I like it but I DON'T like it when people plagiarize my site! I will spend a long time making a page just right and then someone will copy what I wrote and put it on their site without even saying where the info was from!

I have a page on my site explaining that if you're going to copy from me, at least put a link to me, but people don't listen. Just today I had to write another email to someone complaining because they had ripped off my site. Most times people agree to remove the stolen information or to put up a link, but sometimes they won't do anything and then I don't know what to do. Is there anything at all that I can do to prevent this from happening? It really makes me angry to see my hard work posted somewhere else without attribution.

Well, i dont think you should stop putting stuff on your site. Sure it's frustrating when someone takes something that is yours without permission, but you shouldn't let that stop you. In my opinion what you need is to go to google.com, put disable copy, and put one of those codes in your page so noone can copy your stuff. You can get one at http://www.hypergurl.com/norightclick.html
And remind people that it's an ilegal act to plagiarize, and they could get in big trouble for it.

(Rating: 5) I knew about right clicking but I didn't know you could disable copy and paste. Thanks for that!
