it happened to me before, i just didnt see the need to tell the world about it and hope to get some gratification by slandering the person in question.
what she did was wrong, but calling her a cunt etc isnt going to make her stop anymore than telling her, in a firm way, to not do it again.
so smoke would you have no problem calling her a cunt to her face if you met her?

abizzyman - it was EXACTLY the same she just put pics of her up there and changed her contact info...

man i read through all the comments in this thread, i think some interesting things have been brought up, a lot more discussion than i expected
i think the bigtime damage on the girl or anyone who rips something so obviously is not by the words cunt or whore or whatever, but more by the self-realization i'm hoping she witnessed that copying/plagiarism reflects on ones own ability to create things & extend the human imagination
in other words, theyre just damaging themselves, building their own cages, adding more kindling to the fire, and other sorts of gross ass shit
i mean, to be fair to the girl who copied me, i hope she can at least use this kinda ugly situation as a starting point for really rethinking her intentions as a creative individual & figuring out what she should do to avoid being called a cunt whore in the future
and also, she should see this as an introduction to the reality which reads DONT FUCK WITH BEN AQUA UNLESS YOU WANNA GET FUCKED AS WELL ha MAN I RULE

Bottom line : this was scary...

Yeah I was just reading this thread, at the start it was entertaining but far too many people were venting on this girl.
She ripped, she did wrong, she deserves a snotty email and the knowledge that somewhere, a group of people have her name marked with a big rip symbol. She doesn't deserve group harassment, prank calls or herpes.

can a line be drawn between what happend during this thread and the school football initiation rite that went out of hand some days ago (as reported on cnn)?
- Danski0
Yes. Yes it can. Give me your money.

"Thats just silly! If someone went in to your house looked at all your stuff then made exact duplicates of them and put them in to their house then wheres the harm? "
actually it would be more like someone stealing your entire house and moving it to another city. You can obviously see the harm in that.

thanks you dsmith7.. someone actually got it.
no diss to you taragee but i really dont get you.
i'll give you an example so you can feel where im coming from:
i show my work in many ways.. web.. shows... portfolios... even walls in alleys when i was younger. i do public art. does that mean i have to like it if someone of the publick steals it? if someone copied a painter and even went as far as to repaint the deal (which is hard to do) but then passed off the work as their own.corin, weather you think the site was good or not doesnt mean he didnt spend hours, days or weeks of blood and sweat to get it done.
what really rubbed me the wrong way is that she called it a portfolio. that site could have gotten her a good grade, an internship somewhere, even real paying work. All because she spent a few minues stealing. yes, it happends and nn its not fair.. but if someone is caught red handed harsh words are in order.
i once tore a girl apart a girl from san deigo who stole tokidoki.it (simone's site) and set her ass up like a buisness. i actually found the site because someone at my work at sony was going on and on about how awesome the site was andhow maybe they should get her in for freelance work. see, web pirates will take it as far as that. taking work and money from the origional owner. is that okay too, taragee?
id also like to clear up this: i did not call her a slut or a whore and i think that yes she IS a coward. wah, i called her a coward. shes also a theif and she should be ashamed of what she did. i also said she should stay in school and learn how to be a real designer. booyah i meant that too. like i said before last thing i want is another crap girl making the rest of the girls look shitty. we all have a hard enough time with guys taking us seriously anyway. i hope she takes the comments i said to heart and makes herself better. tough love. i think the slut and the asian cunt comments to her were on called for and retarded. thats definately school yard stuff and belongs in the 3rd grade. there could have been better comments made.
