A really sad thing to happen, research is very important and is a necessity. Some people as you say take personal offence, I had the same thing happen to me on an article called “Does size matter” I had kept it relaxed and funny but some bloke said I didn’t know what I was talking about.

what else should I say… with proper research, there is lesser chance you could go stray… interesting…

This is the reason I seldom publish real articles. I find very hard to find some real sources. I am also afraid to be accused of a copy paster Good post, Glynis…. Now, I don’t know if I can post health articles anymore lol

:0 I haven’t had this happen to me yet – how humiliating, especially when you know yourself that it is your own work. I guess this individual has nothing better to do with their time Glynis>:!!

Commenting should be done with grace and most respect for the writer. When I was a kid I watched an episode of Kun Fu and these words stuck with me till today: “When words are not better than silence it is best not to pronounce them.”
(or write them). I try to follow that rule, when commenting on peoples work. Sorry you had to go thru that sour episode.

Sorry you are going through this. One of the Christmas articles I wrote had a link that I clicked on. It was the same topic as mine but only written later, it looked as if they used my article for their research. I let it go as mine was much better written and I had proofread mine. Theirs was a mess of errors. That is sometimes the problem with non-fiction, the work is only as good as the research. I like you try to find many different research pieces to draw from. As for the nasty comment, I think there is never a need for it and the person writing it needs a life.

Take care, Pam
