“You might know that ignorance is one of the things familiar with Autism.”

What’s your point? They can’t help but ignore the rules against plagiarism because they’re too autistic to know better?

That is a great work done! You have all the rights, and you should preserve your copyrights. There is a lot of content theft going on the web these days. There will be some slow down to this only if we authors are aware, keep strong enough, and act to preserve our rights.

ciao!

I have to admit I’ve had problems with libelous material posted on with WP – I got a very slow response to my complaint and it was necessary to explain clearly to every single member of staff, that I was prepared to take the matter straight to the Police or Courts.

Personally I understand your aversion to him copying and posting YOUR insights as his own. However one of the biggest issues we fight is ignorance. Especially when in reference to Autism. Some of your insights can be extremely helpful.. and who cares WHERE it’s read .. on another persons site or on a bathroom stall.. as long as the word is out.. ya know? However, my advice to you would be.. if it comes down to talking terms with this man.. demand that he give you journalistic type credit for what you write. Letting everyone know that this paragraph was taken from.. etc..
Then the word is still being passed on, but he is not taking credit for your hard work..
Could this work?
Good luck to you. and I hope you come to a satisfying agreement.

I know from experience that WP won’t simply remove other people’s material when requested. In my case it wasn’t “entire paragraphs” it was my entire website, over 200 different webpages, many of them many pages long. Mr. Plank saw “nothing morally or ethically wrong with this”. In the end, after a long and stressful fight, he removed it. I hope your “legal & proper” way works out well for you in a much shorter period of time and less stressful way.

@Aspie Bird: How would you recommend handling this then? I’m handling it the legal and proper way – I don’t see any other manner of handling it.

I understand the thing about copyright, but are you not too hard for others now? You might know that ignorance is one of the things familiar with Autism. Copying things published on the internet is a common thing on the internet I guess.

I do think WP is a great platform for Aspie’s and I admire the work of Alex so far what he has done for WP.

Sorry, I do not want to offend you, but this is not a way to make friends I guess, Z.

Once again I understand your statement, but is it really necessary to take this kind of action? I am sure this migt be solved in another, friendly way if you want.

All the best,
Aspie Bird.
