thanks to sweetie for this link:

http://competitions.compsweb.co.uk/category/2010-04-april-2010/

am fuming as i am sure they have copied my posts from the postals, i put some of the comps into my own words and they have copied that but cant flamin prove it, makes me so mad that i go to the effort of buying the papers/mags only for some idiot to copy them, not only from me but from others!

better link for postals:

http://competitions.compsweb.co.uk/tag/postcard-competitions/

majority of those are ones that have been put on today from here!!!

gosh, do you remember when lots of the comps/mags were being copied to a certain freebie site a while ago, some of them still are as got a mate who sends me the links & copied comps on there trouble is like you say, can't prove it, same with the puzzler/tab comps, a lot of them are copied from here to other sites, this site now is usually always the first up with any postals/ etc comps, makes me mad when i see them being copied
couple of months ago saw one of my full house comps on a phone forum that also had comps on, exactly the same as i post on here, i joined it & said 'thank you' to them for copying my comps :mad: they never bothered replying but haven't since copied any more that i know of up to now, but thinking about it am going to check back on it

don't blame you being angry,

Jokey

That's what I'm tempted to do. There's nowhere to contact them, think I may leave a comment on the posts and say something like that. I'm bubbling now, just so unfair and down right cheeky!!

There is absolutely no dispute as far as I am concerned, they are posting the postal comps in the exact same order we're putting them on and 99% of them have the same wording!! It's just infuriating!! I think it's easily proven if you have a good look. Isn't there anything we can do? Surely it's plagiarism or something :rotfl:
