Stealing is bad....mkay?
To anyone who stole and/or is stealing from WtW News. We check, if we catch you red handed, we will make sure everyone knows you stole from us. I'm tired of this nonsense, and so are others in WtW's Staff. If you discovered news through WtW, it would be nice if you credit us. Just because you don't like us, doesn't mean you shouldn't do the decent thing and give credit where it's due. Because it isn't a problem crediting other sites, but it's a problem crediting us apparently. We've caught one person red handed, and if he stops it'll end there. If not, then you'll see me posting again. Its also ridiculous to steal our news, when we also offer RSS and would customize it to add to any sites own news. We don't own Digimon news that's a fact, but when we're working diligently gathering and finding news, and people go the cheap way, we feel cheated.

My advice: Make it known who is stealing, the shitlist is there for a reason, no? :P

Is it okay if we use the info we get from you if we give you credit? ???

Completely OK to use the news if you credit and link back to the article.
We even have a built in system where people can have news from WtW News automatically added to their websites, boards, etc. if they wish. All they have to do is ask. That's part of why we have a Digimon only version of the news, so you don't have to deal with all the other piddly crap if you don't want it.

I second this idea! Let everyone else know who is stealing, and let the thieves be ashamed of themselves.

As long as they link back to the article on WtW News and properly credit the matter is considered closed. |
