some generic Questions on 'Naturism' — the rest of this blog has been removed —
The "author" has been sent a warning, and the rest of this blog has been removed by the administration, as being a plagiarized copy of material from http://www.all-nudist.com/5/post/2014/01/nook-admires-all-nudist-enough-to-steal.html#.UulidfuGfpc
Please read the extensive documentation here, starting with: http://www.naktiv.net/copyright/
Hi Richard,
I have gone to their site – to tender my apologies, but not sure where I could do the same.
I shall try again.
And, true I posted their contents, but i didnt claim that its something I have discovered or invented; – just trying to share info and details about the same as much possible.
After all, naturism has been in vogue from centuries ago and so none of us actually can claim any credit
Agreed, its my mistake not to mention the source, but to take it as if its a crime / i steal their contents – is to undermine the very purpose of all these groups / networks…
Anyways, let me apologize to them.
Thanks.
anybody who would plagiarize material has a lot of nerve pretending any sort of authority on spirituality. pretty weak.
Maybe it should be removed!
Maybe, on the other hand, then this discussion thread goes with it. After all, the blog is not there any more, just the header. I'm of a mind to keep it as a record of the issue and of people's helpful responses, too. Then anyone can see what happened, and what was done about it.
Yes, as per usual, you are correct, you wise guru type you. I'll just have another wine, if that's ok with you *guzzle, dribble, gurgle*
I note our friend has not responded ????
I have to wonder if there is any connection with
this issue and the previous "shitfight" that occurred just recently???? Hmmmm????
Ah, great minds think alike 😉
And am I right in thinking they never actually reported it to the admin here either?
Nobody from All-Nudist contacted any adminstrator on the Naktiv site about the plagiarist post. The first anyone here heard about it was when Steve & Denise pointed out the virulent All-Nudist blog post and it was only then that it was possible to investigate and deal with the issue. So, thanks again, to Steve & Denise
So am I to understand that All Nudist are blaming the Naktiv site for the plagiarism when it is one of our members that has actually committed the "crime"?
That is correct. This is a social media network, and it's precisely like blaming Faceache for something some idiot posts on FB. All-Nudist probably wouldn't dare to do that though 😀
Which I brought up to them but they said it was different on the Naktiv site. I don't understand how one network has different laws governing them.
It's because they're trying to personalize their interaction with the Naktiv site to make it like their own website where they vet everything which appears. Instead of seeing the Naktiv site as a social media network where people interact, interactively, with each other, like FB.
You're welcome. It's a shame, the all nudist site is a good naturist resource but the attitude of the editorial team (I suspect just one person) leaves a lot to be desired and is seemingly rather stuck in the dark ages.
That said, we should bear in mind that it is in their interest to ferment contention and conflict as it drives traffic to their site and ultimately increases the opportunity to generate advertising revenue. Admins here should take heart from the fact that the Naktiv site has caught their attention as a potential threat to the "big boys" (I couldn't believe the arrogance of that comment in one of their replies) I just wish I could resist the temptation to rise to the bait 🙂 When all's said and done – good luck to them. It is a good resource and everyone needs to make a living – right?
Indeed, the world is big enough. In fact, if they think we're worthy of such a virulent outburst, perhaps we should take that as positive feedback 😀
The "big boys" <- he he he.
Satheesh – You might want to credit the source of the text in this and other posts. Seems like the folks over at All Nudist are (quite rightly) a bit peeved http://www.all-nudist.com/5/post/2014/01/the Naktiv site-admires-all-nudist-enough-to-steal.html#.UulidfuGfpc
Well spotted. The user has a warning issued, and the blog has been "editorially adjusted". Plagiarists we do not need, if anyone sees anything of this nature again, (for sure this kind of idiocy will happen from time to time), you can also report it in the feedback group.
Indeed, that is well out of order!
BTW. to Steve & Denise, Michael, and the others who have replied on the all-nudist site to try to put the record straight – I thank you for the effort. It's not often people are corrected from spreading misleading FUD and it's good see some people are prepared to do so.
Many thanks
Hi Steve & others
Sorry for delay in reply; been away for a while…
First of all, its my error in not mentioning the source of this post. Not that I wanted to take credit (I dont mind when others quote my posts / thoughts in their site / groups without mentioning my name etc), just forgot to mention that – but I shall be more careful henceforth, as it becomes a cause of anguish to many.
As for my other posts – its my thoughts on naturism that i have shared with.
Regards,
Satheesh
It's not just a matter of "not mentioning the source", it's the "cut-and-paste" of other people's content AND not citing the source, that is the issue. The problem is that it gives the appearance of your work, when in fact it is somebody else's. There is an entire page devoted to this subject here: http://www.naktiv.net/copyright/
Once you have read, and digested, that information, might I politely suggest you go on to the All-Nudist site and apologize to them personally for your use of their material. I think they might appreciate the effort.
Cheers.
