It worked. I was PWNED and I fought back. Read here for the details, but basically all of my posts were stolen and put on another blog without my consent. I took the necessary steps, and now I am proud to say that the site has been taken down by the owner. Like I said read the first post and then you can read the email exchange. Also I am not going to give the site info or their name. As far as I am concerned the issue is over. I will keep a big look out for this in the future. I heard about this, but this is the first time I have seen it go down on this scale.

Remember to always check your feedburner stats for uncommon uses, because that is usually sites that are posting your feed. That is what happened to me.

Here are the emails. The 1st I sent 1 minute after last nights post.

Hello

My name is Ethan Jaynes. I own the site http://pwnedvideo.com . Your
site XXXXXXXX is stealing from my site. You are posting my
sites posts on your site and not giving me credit. Stop this. I
actually did a post about it.

Thank you for understanding that this is plagiarism, and understand my
feelings of why I would want you to stop.

Just do your own blog. Do not steal other peoples work.
Please write me back a response. I will be very interested what you have to say.
Thank you.

This next one was sent to me about 8 am this morning. That was pretty quick response.

Ethan,
I apologize for that and was caused by some incorrect settings in wordpress plugins. All posts have been fully removed from my site.  Do you mind if I pull your data from rss but link directly to your site? If not I can understand and sorry for causing any issues with your site.

Thanks

XXXXXXXX

I liked that he wrote me back, but that was real unnerving of him to still ask for permission. I understand that if I told him he could, it would have overwritten my Creative Commons License and my Copy Rights.

Here is what I wrote him 9:11 am this morning.

I would prefer you did not pull any info from my site or RSS. I think your site was created just to draw traffic from my hard work, and other sites hard work.

I understand that sometimes people make mistakes, but I think it would be best if our sites were in no way affiliated.  I am sure you understand this, and I thank you for the quick reply.

This was in my inbox when I got home from Church this afternoon.

I can understand that. The site has been fully taken offline and I am sorry for any inconvenience that this has caused

With that email it has hopefully ended this saga. I checked the site in question and it has zero posts on it. I hope that the owner takes it down completely and gets their money back from Godaddy. As for that glitch they had in that pluggin, it is a splogging pluggin. The whole point of the pluggin is to steal info from an RSS and put it on your site. Also if this person is intelligent enough to buy a domain and install that very complicated pluggin, they should be ably to set it up correctly.

I think those sites should all close down. They are pointless. Splogging is about as low as it gets. As for my feed, I am going to leave it as a summary until I get on some bigger blogrolls. Once my name gets big enough, I will switch it to a full feed and hopefully this will not happen again. It might just take a few more months. I am sorry RSS guys. Hang around just a little while longer. You rock. Anyways, just come to the site. The upload time is fast and you can leave a comment or two.
