My post copied by a 'senior' indiblogger
On 2nd May 2010, I had published a post on what to do if your feed is not detected by browsers:

Soon after, I also discussed the post on the forum here:

Now the other day, while going through this thread:
http://www.indiblogger.in/forum/topic.php?id=8260
I was shocked to find that an indiblogger of 'considerable repute' had copied my post without credit.
I have started this thread basically for 2 things:
1. To request the concerned blogger to delete the copied post.
2. To throw open a couple of questions:
- Is it okay for IndiBlogger to allow such dubious members to take part in its policy-making discussions?
- Isn't it an appropriate case for IndiBlogger to exercise its power of banning such members?
What's your take on this? Throw in your candid opinions.

Hi Gouri.
Again, sorry to hear about your post being copied without credit and/or permission. I hope the concerned person will remove the post or the copied portion or take your permission and give you credit - whatever you two agree upon. If I were Inditeam, I would not look kindly on such behaviour and I would be very worried about how my members were reacting to this thread.
Best wishes.
I too would do the same.. Maintenance of ethics is a must for a profession which is entirely built on it.
That could be harsh, if people begin copying your work here at Indi, then there would be no meaning in being a part of this community. We come here to get a reputation, and its hard when someone else takes credit for our work.
Yeah, that's really harsh.. It attacks the very foundation of blogging.
