When Shaneo found RBS 'copied' review earlier, it's easy to see how he found it. He was copying Chris' himself, from one page before!! Now, this is an all time low.

Take a look at Monkey of Wars and RastaBillySkanks reviews, remarkably similar.

That is true, VB.

"What I don't like is everyone ganging up on him. No one actually has any real proof about him copying RBS or editing it or whatever, and it appears to me like we're judging Shaneo."

Cheers Ant. My intention was to prove a point about copying, not copy. If I were to copy, I wouldn't be so stupid as to copy from another page. I'm smarter than that (although some dispute it!), but the bottom line is this - I didn't copy.

And to top things off, someone has hacked my MSN Passport :(

hey i copied one review and i din't even con SR out of a GAD where as this guy Shaneo seems to have never started a post on his own and has never done his own review.

i got a 3rd chance as i cheated once then had the cheek to ask SR for my old ID which was a stupid thing to do anyway.

i try and be nice to people and when i do write a review it will be my words.

i've never slated anyone (if i have sorry) and since that one time i've never cheated since.

now i don't know why people seem to hate me, i suppose people did get annoyed at times with me about this and that but it wasn't bad enough to hate me so much.

There are people here much worse than me. people who spam pointless topics and there are loads that cheat more than i have.

it seems that shaneo is the worst though, he's registered several times (so i'm told) and has never wrote a review in his own words and has had several GAD wins for other people's work.

i aint all that bad as some of you say.

Not sure what to say.

I like Shaneo as a person, but if he does keep copying then I guess he should be banned...

What I don't like is everyone ganging up on him. No one actually has any real proof about him copying RBS or editing it or whatever, and it appears to me like we're judging Shaneo.

Now, of course SR can judge him. Snuggly can do whatever he likes, if he bans him, then fine. If he's got the evidence for it, and he bans him, then no one can refute that. After all, it's SR's forums.

But I don't think we should be ganging up on him like this, insulting and hurting him when he probably doesn't deserve most of it. Leave it for Snuggly to decide.

I've been ganged up on before on chat rooms and forums on the Internet, and it's not very nice at all. Maybe I'm too sensitive and lack self-confidence, but try to imagine how shaneo feels if he really is telling the truth, and trying to make a point.

Right, that's enough seriousness from me. I'm off to steal sugar now, probably from Tony's house.

My opinions on this topic:

(Well, questions)

Is anyone stupid enough to attempt to win by copying an existing review from the SR website?

Would that person then be stupid enough to accuse that review of being copied, and not realise his review would blatantly get found out?

Either:

1) Shaneo is indeed incomprehensibly stupid

or

2) Shaneo was actually trying to make a point - to see if he got found out for it and RBS didn't - as if there were some sort of bias against him. Though why he would post his accusation topic 5 days after the review, I don't know.

I'm not sure which I believe at the moment.
