This: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/View.aspx?mid=11076540[^]
Is new, but his posts so far: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Messages.aspx?fmid=11076540[^]
Consist of "sea" and sod-all else.

I think a warning to start with and remove the posts (rather than a user bashing) and see what he does from here on in?

Plagiarized?

Even though this[^] is consumed from this[^] it also seems to be copied from here[^]

The problem is that since this is a blog, there's no way of leaving a message to the author and asking about this since there's no place for posts when the blog is in moderation queue.

I don't think it is copied because the download link at the end of all articles points to sqlsafety.com. So it seems that the post at toadworld has been copied.

And if you see the "about me" of SQL-Safety and the data of the poster in the Taod-World you will see is the same person.

The question is... is that person the same as the user here?

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Both SQL-Safety and Toad-World seems to be done by the same person. (See the about me in SQL-Safety. Same name and same pic that toadworld)

The question is... is that person the same than the CP user here?

That's exactly what I would have liked to ask from the CP author... If there would be a new message button Smile | :)

Then I think that is better asked in B&S-forum than here.

Probably not plagiarized

Looking at the source of the SQL Safety post, we have:

XML

<meta name="twitter:site" content="@derekman1" />
<meta name="twitter:creator" content="@derekman1" />

The "derekman" name seems to fit with the CodeProject member "derekman9707".

On Twitter, derekman1[^] has the display name "David Dye", which matches the author name from the Toad World post.

So unless the SQL Safety site has copied both the article and author profile from Toad World, and set up a fake Twitter profile, it looks like it's all the same author. Smile | :)

Thanks for the report, but it's a good idea to post a link to the member http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/View.aspx?mid=11077807[^] as well as his crime. That way if the message disappears first, the member can still be identified and smacked with the ban hammer! Laugh | :laugh:
