Stolen work, clip art, borders and all that jazz...
|
I see it has started up again....
Every once in a while people start complaining about this problem... and I am going to be honest - it does absolutely nothing... (except perhaps make us feel a bit better for getting something off our chests...)
Why? Because these people do not read the board and most of them
probably do not care, even if they did read what was being said here.
Now, you might complain and say that that�s not right, that people
should not do stuff like this and all I can say is that we each live
our life according to what our conscious allows us ... and if these
people don�t see the wrong or feel guilty about what they are doing,
then your words are falling on deaf ears.
Now if it makes you feel better, you can complain to us here on the
forum and we will sympathize and agree with you BUT unfortunately we
have no power over what others do here... we need to rely on the
kindness of strangers and just hope that people will do what�s right...
My way of seeing this is this:
Try not to let it bother you, report the worksheet and move on to something more positive. There are better things in life than worrying about stuff like this.
In fact, where are Lisa, Freddie, Mietz, Jeckica and Ivona?? We need to get a game going, something fun and light-hearted here on the board again... instead of all this depressing stuff that just makes it sound like these people are actually important to us - when they are NOT!
Smile people and let�s stop worrying about those who aren�t worth worrying about!!
Hugs,
Linda

Good luck Sarah I �m going to Dublin for Holy Week and I �m taking a group there for the month of July. I �m really looking forward to it as it �s years since I spent time in Ireland. August will probably be taken up with sorting out the new kitchen which will be built (I hope) in my absence. |

Wonderful idea Sara!
I will be working like a mad woman this summer... but I am saving my money up since I plan to take a few days off this summer and go somewhere special... maybe France, maybe Holland or someplace else that I really would love to visit... I haven �t had a proper holiday in years and I am thinking that this is the year I break out the Visa card and go!!
Also, good luck I hope all works out for you!

You go for it girl!!! I �m not sure when I �m going or if I �m going anywhere. Time will tell.
a little ps - which is a little consolation. When people have left comments, especially comments about theft and down-right lousy materials, this is the page that pops up first when the "author" logs on to this site. So even if these people don �t read the board, they will see this page before they can move on to the site or to new uploads! That is a bit of a consolation.
