when you find some one doing this violation in mylot you are expected to report the abuse to the mylot immediatly through the same discussion where you caught this user.
Only thing is you must be double sure about what you are doing and it's not compulsary for mylot to take the action they will deside the matter at their level after thorough varification.
All the best from oarnamav.

Well, I just brought this up because I think I saw one new discussion that looked exactly the same as the one I've started like 3 weeks ago.. But i can no longer find it now... Guess i'm just gonna let it pass for now but once I see such a case again, I might just make a move already..

I do report users like that! At the end of the day it was my idea and I usually find that people get more responses for my idea than me because I start it before I go to bed. They start it when every one is awake! Mine sinks to the bottom and they get maybe 20 responses. For something which I thought of without lookin around the forum for ideas. I do my best not to have any discussions that people have already started and if I do I tend to give them best response if they tell me they started one like it and I see they did start it before me. I dont think it is fair for someone to basically steal of anyone else. Why do it? If they cant think of a discussion to start I wouldn't start one. Just respond till one came to mind!

When I see a copy of a discussion which I have posted previously, that will enrage me. If I didn't know how to deal with it before, now I know that I am supposed to report it immediately to the mylot admin. I will surely do thus and mylot will undertake the appropriate action on the matter. This bad act of some mylotters must be put a halt somehow. I hope that all of the well meaning members of this community, will cooperate and help in combatting this unacceptable behavior.

No problem. Discussions are tagged. So, unless someone entered the exact title, tag, and content, that would be no problem.
Sometimes great minds think alike.

but what if it was simply coincidence - there are only so many ideas and the idea of the morphic field

Topic coincidences are common in this forum, but that is not what the creator of this discussion is talking about. They are talking about word for word copy and pasted discussions that are taken and used by other members--this is plagiarism and Mylot does not approve and it will cause your account to be cancelled. You cannot steal the words of someone else in this forum or from another website for that matter.
Of course in a forum as big as this one has grown to, you will find common and similar topics of discussion, but you should not find exact word for word similarities in those discussions.

I think I would report if it is really the same as my discussion. I noticed some discussions which are the same from different members just lately and I don't respond to them anymore because I get this feeling that they would be reprimanded somehow.
