Copying or stealing?

Copying or stealing?
 
Looking at the new contributions, I saw a so-called �new � contribution of a PPT I already have for a long time (about a year). Sadly, I failed to relocate this PPT in the vast amount of contributions, so I couldn �t report this new member.  As such I could not tick a box in the �report � section.  Still, as I �d hate to see people copying or stealing my work and re-upload it as theirs, I �d like to report this new member, as most of us would do.  So, what can I (and anyone else who comes across this unwelcome behaviour) do?  If I knew who the moderators were, I could send a PM with my concerns. Any suggestions? (Apart from mailing Victor, who �s very busy with making this site even better.) Cheers, Peter.

Technically, every member with over 5000 points is a moderator .

is it your contribution or someone else �s from the site? when you save docs from here, don �t you put the username of the author on the contribution you download? have you tried searching by the doc �s name or the author �s name? That �s what I usually do in such cases.

@nofung: yeah, but you have to supply a link to the original and that �s what Peter couldn �t do.

If you sent some moderators the link of the printable you think was stolen, they might recognize the author.
Besides, it might already have been reported. Some people here have a keen eye.
