    They like completely copied all of DP onto the site.... using RSS? Wow. I knew you can get content using RSS but I didn't know you can copy complete forums!

    Kind of makes me not want to post anything unique to DP, if other people all over the net are going to benifit by promoting what I and other say on DP as there own.

    I'm not saying it's wrong but I was unaware that this happens.

    But its the Internet ?
    Some people may stop posting DISASTER VIDEOS on Youtube if they new that you linked to them from your website.
    The internet is full of copied stuff,DP is no different.
