I wish the content owners does not file any DMCA complaints against LB…  Because of few authors action of copying the content, thousands of members in LB has to suffer…

@superD, did you read the FAQ’s, It is prohibited to copy or plagiarize so I think the contents are same with photos that are also prohibited. If not, why not asked the person who legally own the photos before attaching it to yours. That’s what we call respect. Look at other members comments on the topic of @cely about photos being copied, it’s…[Read more]

I think google only takes action if DMCA comes in. Most typical copy pasting would be ignored. So if that DMCA notice comes in then site have no option that to move to another domain. Because in such case google de-indexes the site completely. So in order to avoid that they have to get rid of some of the spammers. This can be hard considering a…[Read more]

Thanks, @Mahesh, if that feature about friends will slow down the site, and if we will not earn from it, it is better not to have it at all.

@Cely,yes, I commented on one of her posts that she used my photos. She is a real plagiarizer!

I think a lot of those features may slow the site down. Because it runs as a plugin in WordPress. So more such features as expected above may slow the site down. And this may even in turn affect the site. So I don’t think it’s worth having such features. If these features were to be adding any revenue, I won’t mind. But at this point of time, it…[Read more]

Maybe they are thinking that since it’s in the media library they can freely use it. Though if there is a label on it for @acelawrites ‘ name, then obviously they shouldn’t use it.

Actually, some of my pictures that I posted for my posts here were also used by two of the members here. But I cannot complain because it is there in the media…[Read more]

@acelawrites, yes friend, I saw your image photo bearing your name in blog of @zasa, and her blog is plagiarized, that was posted here long time ago by another writer not anymore active here. The photo she uses is stoleb and the blog with your photo image is plagiarzed by this evil woman.

@Mahesh, what I meant by personal photos are your own photos. Pictures that you took with your own camera! I failed to put some watermarks in some of it; but I have one, a hibiscus flower, yellow and another red with my name on it. “acelawrites” was etched on the flower, but still another member here used it. It is just fine in one aspect because…[Read more]

Thanks @Mahesh and @Michelle for your replies. Yes, that’s it, I wish the admin will remove the Media Library so people can just look at Pixabay and other free photos online if they do not have personal files.

I think the best options people can do here instead is use the pixabay and unsplash images. This way the very issue of using personal photo does not come in. We do have some plagiarism issue. And we have to find those members and make them get removed from the site.I know many abusers who are just plainly copying the articles. So surely that can…[Read more]
