COPIERS ON DOOYOO

Never noticed so many copiers on dooyoo as there are at the present moment. This is over the last fortnight. Loads of them. Hope this is not going to become a trend. Do you know what to do when you find a copier and how to report it and bring it to the attention of dooyoo ? My suggestion would be to tell the guide for that area.

I've seen quite a few and think there is no point. i hate plagurism and when people just transfer reviews from ciao to dooyoo (someone copied my review from dooyoo over to ciao). They'll get caught but i suppose they some think they will earn more money than is true so they think they can write and run.

I feel guilty transfering reviews to ciao and not reading! Yet alone plagurism

Transferring your own reviews from Ciao to dooyoo is not plagerism !! It's your work.

copying really gets my back up and I always just email dooyoo with the user's name andwhat they are doing. I was emailed back on the last one to say thanks and that they will remove it.

I always worry a little though that they may have been the original author from where they copied it from!

Yeh we have had this happen on ciao. Best way is to do all the checking you can by user name etc. and leave a message saying that perhaps you are the original author and would appreciate clarification.

Often you find that copiers do not do a lot of rating themsleves merely cut and paste which is usually a give away.

I have different user names on Ciao and Dooyoo but so far have had no problem.

Yes and because I assumed you knew what you were taking about you made me look a right twit... (lol)..still i had a chat with the guy and he was great about it. ...humph...

LOL at you. NEVER take another raters rate and believe it. Check it out baby ! That was a right balls up.

I email dooyoo. Yesterday i did and they didnt get chucked off but got awarningand the concerned reviews were deleted

So, are you allowed to copy your reviews from ciao to dooyoo? I'm new to this - it's probably best doing it under the same user name, right?

of course you can,its your work. If you don't use the same name in both places its best to declare the fact to avoid being accused of copying.

Many of us use both sites, but I tend to edit mine a little before changing them over to the other site.

Thanks very much :-)

Not strictly speaking copying but I wonder if it would be useful to have a thread that keeps up to date the current thinking of posting a review in several places. I have seen the heated exchange about this on the Epinions pages where they are considering a ban on re-publishing from competitors pages. I have just written a music review: how do each of CIAO, Epinions, Amazon and dooyoo think and react if I add it simultaneously (and under the same name) to all four sites?

I would have thought that CIAO and Epinions were mutually exclusive whereas CIAO and dooyoo service more or less the same clientelle. Amazon is extending its product range significantly.

NB: I started my career on Epinions and then migrated to CIAO where I currently post - I gave up on dooyoo three years ago!

I think it is your decision to post the work wherever you want and if the site will not allow it, you have a simple choice to make.

Perhaps you should give dooyoo a fresh look. I usually edit my review from ciao over to dooyoo but that is my choice. Dooyoo pay very well at the moment and is quite active compared with a year or so ago.

Trouble is, on Dooyoo you post and run and it gets to people after a while and they tend to avoid your work, which is a shame as you write well. You have posted some 50 odd reviews on Dooyoo but only rated 250 so that is 5 rates per 30 or so you get yourself.

maybe if you were to reciprocate some of the peoples time then you would enjoy Dooyoo a lot more.

I would actually agree with that. Since rating evenly, my enjoyment is a lot more.

Do copiers really believe that someone won't catch them out? Have even found crowned reviews to be copied in lots places. Lisa x

What? A break of Omerta?

Abuse of Dooyoo is really easy, and quite profitable.

You have experience of this?

Angus i study law. Anything illict, illegal or dubious is technically within the realms of possibilty.

No to your question though

So we should assume that your last but one post was nought but hearsay, right?

I'm sorry, its just its quite easy to see the glaring flaws within the sytem thats all. Just becuase a doctor can detect that someone has a cold does not mean to say that they have given that the cold eh?
