No need to apologise, I understand where you're coming from. If he/she's taking posts from other sites what's stopping him/her taking posts from here and posting it on other sites? It is shocking really. I have emailed him/her though so hopefully the matter will be dealt with properly. The best way to check if your post is written elsewhere is to copy and paste a random sentence from it and google it with speech marks around it.

I can argue with you over the same theory for what seems like eternity, and is probably three months, people can make fun of my thoughts, fully disagree, and non of it makes me this mad. It really isnt even the spoilers. I shouldnt, but I almost expect to bump into them here and there, even on this site. What bothers me, is how the theory by Matt, was not even worded differently. The same setup, everything. If this is Matt, then I am sadly mistaken, and apologise to the point of tears. But if Matt is a different theorist, I take it personal. If I went to that site, and saw my EXACT theory under someone elses name, I would want a) call the person out, b)report immediatly after, to Admin. It is the most I am capable of on a theory site. I swear, there should be copywrite infringment laws of some sort on things like this. I expect similarity, not identical. Some things are not hard to figure, and its more the principal of it.

Wed, 01 Apr 2009 22:57:42 +0000 http://www.theoriesonlost.com/?p=2094#comment-7647 The title to the "theory/question" is right now on darkufos, top mysteries of Lost. Honestly, this isnt really a big deal, I just find it a little off, that 2 of the theories here are from dark ufo, and after repeated suggestions, in a very polite manner I might add, to not post spoilers, or at least label them spoiler, they still pop up. This question in general, really does not give anything away, just steals the identical question, straight from the other site. Its everything rolled into one that bothers me. There is nothing creative or new or original coming from this, and I was under the assumption from the jump, that this was going to happen. And by this, I mean repeated spoilers, identical questions, and from the looks of it, copy and pasted posts. I poke fun on a normal basis here, but this is not fun. This is someone taking things that others have worked for, and using them elsewhere because there are no good ideas to be brought up by the theorist themselves. I dont condone it, and although I know you dont really want it talked about out in the open like this, I say it so anyone who does frequent the site, can keep an eye out for other such instances. I am well aware that this show is a worldwide mystery, and many theories are going to be similar, but read the post by Matt, and read the other one by this theorist. Another apology is not due to this site...its due to darkufo and Matt. And on the apology, I feel that it is easy to say one thing, and do another, it happens all the time. Accidents occur everyday. But just repeated possible spoilers, and identical posts can be something that could ruin a site. It has happened before, and if anyone here paid attention in school, history repeats itself. But not on my watch. Not trying to be the hero, just want to see this site keep the respect and originality it has earned. How would someone who left the darkufo site feel if they came here and saw an identical theory...or worse, THEIR identical theory. We would be a joke, and I feel there is too much of a good thing going on here to let that happen. I didnt even catch this, others did...no not those others...but seriously, it was a good catch, and I felt it necessary to investigate, and will continue to do so. Again, I apologise Emzi, just had to let this out. The title to the “theory/question” is right now on darkufos, top mysteries of Lost.
