That brings up a good question. How do you prevent someone from listing auctions whose sellers have stolen your write-up? That drives me nuts -- I invest so much time and effort to compile a detailed, and descriptive ad, often with my personal experiences of the game in question. For someone to come along and, for example, use my description of why King's Quest IV SCI was both visually stunning, and a quantum leap in the vibrance of animated adeventures in my gaming life makes me feel used. I've had characters not only lift my ads but actually link to my webhosted site to use my box scans and screenshots! Grrrr!
What can you do to stop this? Ebay says its powerless but that's NO surprise. "C.E. Forman" wrote: > > I know this guy. He's one whose auctions I've canned for swiping YOIS text > word-for-word.
