MALAYSIAN PIRATED BLOGGER

We’ve heard of the great dilemma Claire of Minishorts faced when she discovered someone plagiarized her post directly, HERE. The perpetrator not only copied the images that were edited by Claire but also the article written by her. Now, as a blogger, that is truly sinking to an all time low.

I’m very sure everyone wants to make a quick buck and a name for themselves as fast as they can. Therefore I’d like to hereby announce the winner of the quickest, lowest, shadiest (if there’s a word) blogger or person in Malaysia. He is the owner of BloggerTips.

Quoted from Darren’s blog, ProBlogger and latest post, Introducing a Shoddy Blogger.

Have a look at BloggerTips (no follow tag used) – a blog that is filled with either posts that are ‘free articles’ or other people’s content. In both types of posts there is no credit given to the original author.

Now, as much as everyone hates people who plagiarize, this guy takes the whole cake..along with the box, candles and even the plastic knife.

This blogger made such a nice looking blog (though I think it’s a theme from somewhere) and has filled it with other bloggers articles. As far as I know, if you’d like to plug or use someone’s article, there’s such a thing called bibliography or referencing rules. Heck, you don’t have to even follow Harvard’s method of referencing. It’s not that difficult.

But no.. this blogger;

Has done the worst thing by far any blogger has done in the Malaysian blogosphere. Even compared to the blog war that happened between a Malaysian and a Singaporean.

Seriously, I totally got a shock when I saw the address and I feel really embarassed to have sleazy bloggers like this.

Sigh..
