Thread copied word for word? - carlos_matos - Oct 30, 2014
Is there anything I can do if someone copies my thread word for word and creates their own thread with no changes at all to my original wording?
A user just saw my thread, posted that he would also be selling X and to PM him to purchase (on my sales thread!) and then copied my thread and just pasted it.

Report for "leached post"
He can just set it back up and sell cheaper with different wording, him posting on your thread was a real dick move though.
P.s. His comment may also fall under "sales trashing"

To be fair, both threads follow the same template and are selling the same product.
Just chill out.

Wow slow down there Hexicidal... did you just tell the OP to calm down?

You need to use the layout to post in that section, he just changed the date.
Its not a big deal, as Hex said "same product, same template."

Not really unique content now is it?
