So this person:
http://community.myfoxdetroit.com/blogs/BAYBAY
Apparently has a blog that's like half just copy and pasting other people's blogs and not giving credit. Everyone should go and harass her for being a cunt. It takes like 30 seconds to sign up. She stole my "Obama Won, Get Over it You Fucking Crybabies" entry and didn't make it clear what, if anything, was not her original work. It makes me especially mad because most of that blog is incoherant bullshit. Let the harassing begin!

Holy crap! First a plagiarizer on Destructoid, and now one on here. All in one day.

Is there any way to report this person to anybody?

Reporting her to MyFoxDetroit may do something. They'd have the power to admin her acount. To harrass her find a spambot online somewhere(there's automated blog posters about) and fill her blog with nonsense. There's probably a CAPTCHA, but they eventually get beaten before the new versions arrive.

I'd have to give more thought to more ways.

Hey, think of it this way. If you're good enough to get your work stolen, then you must be making good progress! *Lame*

Hmm, that is kind of shitty. She should have said "The following is by someone else" but it clearly says your name and stuff, and copyright Dr. Jeebus at the bottom.

Well, you must have got to her, since at the bottom of that post it nows says: © 2008 by Dr. Jeebus.

Also it says: "I'm Dr. Jeebus and I endorse this message" which is a clickable link to your blog.

You gotta give her credit for taking the middle paragraph and turning it into Eyebleed-O-Vision.

Seems like a pretty good articarl, there.

QFT!
Jeebus' reply was pretty good too:

I hear it's great when you copy and paste the contents of someone else's blog and post them in your own blog without any BLEEP indication that you didn't write it yourself. Yeah there's a link to my blog at the end from the article, but there should be an introduction clearly stating that this isn't your original work you BLEEP plagiarist.

BLEEPs for the win.

I've had this happen before. It's annoying, but not really worthing acting on. Guess how many people read her blog? Probably none. People have C&P'ed my MK and Mega Man articles onto blogspot and livejournal, and annoyed the fuck out of me when I was trying to get the site off the ground, but now I realize it doesn't really matter.

Still complete bullshit, though. At least I haven't seen any of my stuff stolen (although I wouldn't mind finding out that someone cribbed my old THI articles, since that would be the only way that I'd ever see them again).

Yes my copyright stuff and the link back to the index are at the bottom, but just because she was lazy and copy and pasted the entire page, then highlighted one part to make it unreadable.

I know it's probably not really worth getting upset over, but it really pisses me off because even though my link is at the bottom, it's not clear what, if anything I wrote as there's no quotation marks, and I really think there should be credit at the beginning of it.

The real reasons it pisses me off though are:
1. Her blog is fucking terrible. Her writing (the few entries that aren't copy and pasted from news feeds) is awful and her ideas are stupid, like saying that NBC should've let American car makers advertise during the Super Bowl for cheap because the game is an American tradition, but there were foreign car commercials.
2. The entire site is racist bullshit. As best as I can tell, the person who stole it is a black supremacist, and all the people that comment on her blog are white supremacists. Even if it's buried in the archives now, I don't want my material on that website.

So far the wrath is just me being pissed off, but the people that want to report it, the happier I'll be.
