Stop Breaking Rules, Warning

Good grief! We all know what plagarism is.

If we steal a poem on-line, and claim it as our own.....

We just  broke copyright laws.

Poetry Soup has supports any infringement 

against such rules.(sic. US Laws)

I suggest you remove ALL such Poetry, like NOW?

Better be yourself than steal others work.

We all..struggle and strive to be our best.

Don't get bounced off the soup!

Clear your decks!

Integrity and rules apply to us all..


Panagiota

I've had many dozens of my poems stolen and claimed by others over these last 6 years. Such people have no honor, and quite likely had no measurable writing talents themselves. Thank you for noting this recent culprit..

Wait a few days and we might see "Out, Out Damned Spot" from the thief.

Sorry to hear of that happening to you. Even worse, a Hijacked poem on the BEST list? I see that as a stab in the back to each poet here, who really pens their own words. Many do not care. Same to me as stealing and murder of other soulful Poets. I might as well hijack a somnet of the Bard? Hardly. You are welcome...Panagiota

Hi Panagiota, This is so sad that folk want to pass off someone else's work as their own. Where's is the integrity? This needs to stop. Thanks for this to our attention- Alexis

It will stop! Thieves get caught. Just look at anyone's poetry, they don't suddenly become Shakespeare or have magical skills. You can find the real poet via a search engine.))) Meanwhile, let's us all be honest. I enjoy being part of this great place. Panagiota xxx

Sounds like there's been another recent culprit discovered, Panagiota. Some people have no pride I guess. Will it ever stop?

Hi Line, I remember a while back you informed us of the same nonsense. When will it end?

I doubt it will stop. Be careful you don't get sucked into majestical poems. I don't know the reasons people do thing I know quite well..people can change and be forgiven Panagiota xxx

At moments like this I reflect on the theory that states that...if you place an infinite number of monkeys at an infinite number of keyboards they will eventually write all the great works......HEY...IT'S JUST A THEORY.....

John, I see rules here apply to us all. I think it's humorous, your last name is Lawless. Are you saying per your theory, we can break rules here with abandon because of the theory? I don't think you meant that. There was a theory once, the world was flat))) That was a winner.)))) Panagiota

I wholeheartedly agree
