    I just hate it when people use your stuff without your consent. I have a free SEO tool that I'm giving away for free on my site http://www.seono1.co.za

    Just check my link at the bottom of beginner seo tutorials

    Here is the thread that this character is using to promote himself

    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?p=4112981#post4112981

    What makes me angry is the fact that this guy ask for reps and it is not even his website or tool.

    I think I need a couple of reps

    What is your opinion on this?

    I think he needs a few infractions for asking for reps.

    If he had just mentioned the tool when someone else had asked, I think that would be ok. He clearly made it seem like he had created this tool and then begged for reps, which is not cool in my book.

    Yes, I don't mind that he tells people about the software, but it it is not cool to remove my name from the thread and replace it with his.

    I guess we all have to make a living somehow :)

    That happens in the "bricks world" too and it's why God created Lawyers.
