Although I thought all of this was obvious, I see that it is necessary to state clearly and explicitly. Since some stupid cunt with the user name Dyanide (that's right fuck-o, I'm calling you out) has accused me of ripping off my material from some kid's MySpace account. Well, shit-for-brains, this is my work and I assert the moral right to it.
Internet publishing is unquestionably the most easily-ripped off communication form in human history. All you need to do is copy and paste and you can post other people's work under your own name in seconds. I've seen chapters of Comeback Road on dozens of people's blogs. It's not something that's easily preventable, but since most kids are willing to attach my name to the postings and do not profit from them, I don't bother to protest. I have better things to do than sit all day Googling my work to try and find everyone who knows how to copy and paste.
As for Dyanide, you should probably know what the fuck you're talking about before you start making accusations. It doesn't take a fucking detective to realize that MySpace and Bebo rip-off artists make their posts after I make mine.
But in case I'm not being clear here (and remember that you picked this particular fight) YOU ARE A FUCKING IDIOT.
wait, what? why are calling out dyna... *paste* Dyanide?
he said that you should rip your stuff of his , OHH!!!! IM AN IDIOT! ok he thinks that you copied the kids myspace. im sorry that was worded kinda funky. so yeah fuck those guys! plagiarism sucks. im sorry you have to deal with this stuff man. will a couple Kudos make you feel better? heres a couple, take one before you kick the guys ass and the other after you kick his ass.
Ouch, but hells YES I hear you. I'm wary about posting a non-guitar related story of mine and more lyrics online because once I posted a song that everyone who commented thought was great, and one kid asked if he could use it. I said no and I made a forceful point about it, but when I think about it, he could have just as easily disregarded me and could be working music around my lyrics right now. With great power comes responsibility. Peter Parker's uncle taught me that. And it rings true. It's a shame you have to post a killjoy disclaimer because someone wants to steal your ideas that came from your own mind and heart and possibly profit off it. Rock on, and keep with the stories and the bad-ass defense of them.
Nice on the whole calling him out thing, I think your writing is awesome, and the fact someone is trying to steal them sucks, so I totally agree with you, he is a fucking idiot with shit for brains etc.
Respect. I'm sure you have the support of the UG community on this and any other issues of plagiarism. Please don't let this dissuade you from posting more in the future.
Damn straight. Doesn't matter though, you have proof that your's is the original, since your post date is earlier than his, right?
Kudos for calling the guy out.
right on! I'm always wary about postin intellectual property on the internet. Good fuckin work for calling out that dick-face. Btw. STILL WAITING FOR Guitargasm 11!! haha
pissed off guy wrote Although I thought all of this was obvious, I see that it is necessary to state clearly and explicitly.
Apparently it wasn't.
VERY pissed off guy wrote Since some stupid cunt with the user name Dyanide (that's right fuck-o, I'm calling you out)
erm yeah, you did.
logical, but still pissed off guy wrote As for Dyanide, you should probably know what the fuck you're talking about before you start making accusations.
Definitely. There's too much of that kind of nonsense going around.
EXTREMELY pissed off guy wrote But in case I'm not being clear here (and remember that you picked this particular fight) YOU ARE A FUCKING IDIOT.
If he really is an idiot, would he understand what you just said?
SUPER MEGA pissed off guy wrote Clear? No? How about this: FUCK YOU.
Clear? Yes.
Grounds to get you banned? Maybe.
Hope it all works out for you,
SYK
(No kudos. I agree with what you said. But not-so-much with how you said it.)
