Sorry I don't live on this site and post daily, but just as yourself previously, why are three days of not posting any different now than previously? These guys want to bring up issues in relation to truly "stealing" work and I find it funny they are just as guilty on a different yet similar level. Is that cool? Not in my books. You might want to let Billy Gamble know the coversation is over too Dizzle and stop posting, didn't you get the memo, this coversation was over three days ago. Come on dude, get with the program.

It's becoming a huge problem I guess. I don't have a problem with it because I only view this blog site. So I don't even kow if anyone is stealing stuff from this site. Clayton just calm down and take a chill pill. All I wrote was "this conversation was over 3 days ago" and now your writing about I have no idea what I'm talking about. I don’t know Billy.

To many clone blog sites out there. When I post I try to look at the big clone blogs so I dont post the same thing they are posting that day. What if a blog copies a blog.

There was a three day gap between my previous post and your post, what makes it over on the 26th! As usual dude, you make no sense. Or do conversations end on this site when someone posts something they know nothing about??? Becasue if that is the case this was over when you posted on November 23rd.

I can tell just by looking that they are not royalty free images. Also, royalty free doesn't mean FREE as in you can copy and paste it to your site. It means you can do with is as you want as far as cropping and the amount of times you use it. It doesn't mean bloggers can take them from various sites and use them as they want. Dude, stop talking because you obviously have no idea what you're talking about. Actually no it doesn’t. I can tell just by looking that they are not royalty free images.

I went five pages deep into this site and found like ten pictures that I know for a fact this site doesn't own and has zero credit, or should I say permission, given. One being the Bisping pic you conveniently skipped over on the front page. Also, just copy and pasting a pic with CP and the photographer on it doesn't mean they've given you permission to use that pic. It's beyond obvious you have asbolutely no idea what you're talking about. LOL.

I've seen lawsuits like that on an almost monthly basis. It's actually a highly illegal trend that has increased enormisly since blogging in any industry became popular over recent years. How on earth is that an advertising/marketing tool when viewers have no idea who took the picture or where you ripped it off from? Just find it extremely funny that your blog/site is having issues with people "stealing" breaking stories when this same site is stealing photography that is owned by someone else. Your server theory is also wrong by the way. Why would you bring up making money off a photograph as the reason why or why not this is wrong? If I stole a shirt from you and wore it, would I be making money off your shirt? By your mindset, as long as no money is made on a stolen object, it's fair game. Stealing is stealing dude, don't try and make it right with your slant. Why on earth would you ban me? If you can't take the heat, might want to get our of the kitchen. I know a number of photographers whose work has appeared on this site, which I know for a fact you were not given permission for. If you chose to ban me for probing a discussion on a trend you guys brought up, I will definitely make sure my friends are made aware of what is going on with their work here. Photography is the same as an article. That same mouse button you threatened me with shouldn't be clicking the right button on it to steal pictures. You are as guilty as the sites you claim are stealing your news, if not more so. clay Dizzle,

Because there is no situations for using images. It's an advertising/marketing tool used all around the world and for all I know these servers are hosted in some 3rd world country where those rules/laws don't apply. Number one issue is that your thinking someone isn't getting paid for an image that they took or is hosting on a server without permission. Well there is no money to be made off of this site by using people's images. So why do you take all this time and energy to bitch on this site about something so pathetic. Noone here is doing anything illegal. I would watch out what you write on here Clayton...you could be the first IP Address banned from the site...which could be done with a few clicks of the left mouse button. I think you're trying to cause trouble on this site and that isn't cool. We are all reading the story's on this site. We're not looking at pictures because alot of the times there are no pictures with the write ups. So instead bitching about images...think of a better thing to bitch about...Like assholes going on blog sites trying to get people in trouble or something.

I hate to see anyone get ripped off for work they've done (writing or pictures), but if you're as much to blame (which I feel this site and a number of mma blogs, which seem to be the worst offendersof this crime, yes it is a crime, are) then you should watch what you say. Thanks for the luck Rory, but it seems these guys are brave enough to fight only "some" battles.

They just post shit from all over and attribute it to "Mick Bower". Its not even re-worded or anything, one of the storys on the news page is a Bisping piece from The Daily Star. P.S. clayton, LOL. Way to put things in perspective. Good luck getting a response...
