what are your thoughts on peepz that steal/borrow your nic name, ideas, etc for their own on different formats.....
i have to say i find it makes me rather pissed OFF.....i mean why can't people be original.....if i liked someone's name, etc. i wouldn't take it as my own on another format. =/

That happened to me all the time when I was around a person I knew. He would take my origional jokes, ideas, and mannerisms and use them when I wasnt around. And then he had the odasity to say that I had nothing clever to say....
that guy really pissed me off

yea......someone has (i'd rather not elaborate)
i dunno.....it's just kinda strange to steal someone's nic.....i've had it since 1999, and it was given to me buy a lovely italian man.....so it's original...never seen it online.
i just wanted to know if people found it flattering or NOT?

Pshaw. This one bubba I know, whenever I tell him a joke or say something at a party, he turns around to everyone else and YELLS out what I've said, and gets a laugh.
This doesn't work if I yell it out myself... something in my delivery? I have black vats of anti-charisma...

i know what you mean, theres a sense of pride and originality to ones nick/screen name imo
-- interesting side note Miss LeCouer theres a big story in the news about the biggest identity theft ring in US history being busted today- u think an online nick is bad b0nk these people got their personal identity stolen and got robbed of thousands of dollars! :(

Kick him in the nuts fleetmouse...
LeCoeur tell him to straight up to start thinking for his/her self and be origional, and to stop jacking other peoples flow!
Then stomp on his/her big toe!
I always get violent when it comes to people just stealing things that do not belong to them...

i have a friend who used to steal my jokes, well id sat them to him and then he'd go and say them when we were with a group of friends and get all the "fame". i always found it funny and would always make sure they knew he stole it,. now its an outstanding joke if he steals something ill just look at him and he goes " sorry copywrite john 2002" lol its quite funny

Are they actually pretending to be you (IE pass themselves off as you) or are have they just copied your name?
Remember, "imitation is the highest form of praise" as they say...
Still, I can see why you're annoyed. People always leech my ideas/jokes etc. I guess it happens to all of us. Good argument for becoming a recluse, eh?
Sometimes though 2 or more people genuinely do just have the same idea at the same time...
Although in this instance it sounds like that's not the case.
If you know them in the real world threaten to give them a kicking. Usually works.

no no they are NOT pretending to be me, they just use my name as their own. and i know they copied it from here, i mean what are the chances of TWO girls on the same MB having the same name.....no way....
i know imitation is SUPPOSED to be flattery but it's never been for me. i have had this happen before in real life, it really just bugs because i like thinking some things are original and i like being an individual.....and i feel like someone is STEALING my individuality/originality!!
it bothers me enough to be vocal (to a point about it) and make a topic. i just hope the person READS this and realizes it's NOT cool. =0)
sowwie it's happened to you as well....this is the first time it's happened to me ON line that i KNOW about.
