Don't you hate it when someone steals your discussion and gets more responses!

That makes me really angry. I make a good discussion that I have thought of and then some other person decides to make the same one, and then they end up getting more responses to my discussion even though I was originally the one that made it!
Gosh, if only these discussions were copyright for around 5 days.
Has anyone ever made the same discussion as you and got all the credit for it?!?!

Personally this type of thing happens here all of the time. Especially with the myLot interests. I am not sure that there is something that we can do except make sure the person posting on the same type of subject is not copying your discussion word for word to get the most from that discussion as well. All I can say, is don't allow yourself to become too discouraged. Just come in here and post when you can, and Good things will happen in time. Wishing you the Best.

I don't think i have ever seen anyone actually COPY my discussion, but i have started discussion, gotten many responses, then within an hour or two seen a discussion that was EXTREMELY similar to mine (practicly the same thing) started up. It doesn't bother me too terribly much, more over just makes me laugh and maybe even pity the other person, as they apparently cannot come up with their own original ideas!
If they took my discussion word for word, i would get very upset and report it, as that is totally not fair and not within the mylot guidelines from what i understand. I think copying an idea and putting it differnt words is pushing those guidelines, but i don't know if it would be worth doing anything over it.
