Are you gonna let us in on the fun (link please)?

One of the DUmmies hotlinked one of my graphs (again) and used it in the title post of their thread #12. I pulled down my graphic and replaced it with a different one.

I only left it up for a little while and then replaced it with the original chart with an admonition about hotlinking added. This only confused them more. Finally, a kind FReeper waded into their discussion and explained the changing graphics on their thread. The entire thread was pulled and the kind FReeper had his DU screen name tomb-stoned.

Your stunt with the graphic was classic. Kudos!

Hey, I was only trying to be helpful. Little did I know, it would miff the powers that be over there, that I did screen captures of their shameful behavior and lack of etiquette, and hosted them where they had to delete the entire thread, to rid themselves of the evidence. But speaking of their latest thread, no entries since July 2nd... over 5 days, with no activity. That place is DEAD, jim....

It didn't help any, that the helpful freeper who pointed out their gaffe, was the one that they hated the most, the king of the borgs, co-opter of labs, evil computing genius of corporate america, and the discoverer of the enhanced work unit hacking ray, which sends coded signals up to Stanford, crediting us with thousands of points, that we never earned.

OK, I was here during the 2 hot link cases, LOL. They seem to learn rather slowly.

I didn't see the rest of the 2nd incident. It figures they would tombstone any suspected Freeper, even one trying to do them a favor. And they clim to be more tolerant than us, that's about as accurate as the 'Religion of Peace'.
