Salve,<br>
<br>
after some surfing on the net i found this site. Thought it looked familiar (look at the part about the late republican army). The info is preciously the same as the info of Sander's site (right up to the Glossary of Roman army terminology).<br>
<br>
[url=http://www.geocities.com/delerius2001/Rome.htm" target="top]www.geocities.com/delerius2001/Rome.htm[/url]<br>
<br>
and Sander's site :<br>
[url=http://members.tripod.com/~S_van_Dorst/reparmy2.html" target="top]members.tripod.com/~S_van_Dorst/reparmy2.html[/url]<br>

Check out the source of the other page (in IE View-Source), you'll see that the contents of that page have been copied from Sander's original without even removing the reference to Sander's page. <p>Greets<br>

Salve,<br>
<br>
Derek Liu was too lazy or ignorant to remove this bit:<br>
<br>
[ !DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" ]<br>
[ !-- saved from url=(0052)members.tripod.com/~S_van...ssary.html -- ]<br>
<br>
There are plenty other individuals who seem rather confused about what they themselves write and what they nick from others. Thus the text at this page appears strangely familiar (though there is some pollution present) as does the glossary. The glossary on this site also raises some doubts about original authorship of the work. Also I can swear to have seen this overview before. Odd bits and pieces are found copied and pasted elsewhere as well.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>

I had this problem with my (somewhat out-of-date) Roman navy page. My text appeared nearly wholesale on a site called Crystalinks, perhaps you've encountered it. When I discovered the yoink, I asked the proprietor to remove my info... she didn't, but I got my name added to the top. This was even worse -- information from numerous web sources, some of it questionable , had all been collected and labelled with my name. I sent a couple more emails but got nothing. So I let it go for a while. About a year later, I ran across it again, and I was fairly well fed up, so I sent a rather terse note informing her that what she was doing was illegal and threatening legal action. I am, happy to say, no longer wrongfully affiliated with that site.<br>
There are still several sites which have copied and pasted my work... still attempting emails.<br>

i think it can be pretty frustrating to see that other persons nick info that you painstakenly have collected over the years and then write their own name under it.<br>
<br>
the least you can do is to ask if you may use it and to give the original author credit for it. <p></p><i></i>
