    | Original user emails plagerized? I love forums, running forums, and dealing with this stuff..... It amazes me daily... So raise your hand if you send out a semi-monthly, weekly, w/e emailer (news letter) to your forum members *RAISES HAND* i try to get one off a month, just to remind inactive members we are still there and update everyone.... So i sit down at my PC and write a little mass email out, looks nice, interesting, informative....even kinda funny. Then i send it out, like most of us do........then i go on vacation. When i get back, a few friends that know me, forward me this email from another forum admin, working my same regional forum niche thing (just a different region), sent the SAME EXACT EMAIL word for word and changed the state and URL..... I'm not mad, I'm not offended, I'm kinda flattered to be honest......how would you take it? what's your thoughts?

 | I would be kind of irritated that they did that, but at the same time flattered because you obviously know what you are doing and they are jealous! Its a shame that some people can't think for themselves.

| I would be happy with my piece of writing because it was so good that someone else wanted to use it, but I would not be happy that they stole my newsletter and I would probably send a nice email asking them not to do it again.
