Christ, I bet it's great going for a pint with you.
I work in the industry mate and my ability to call someone out on unprofessional practises which are harmful to a colleague does not make me not "great going for a pint."
It is theft fella, how would you like it if someone came and did something to decrease how much money you earn?
Alright mate calm down, i was only having a laugh.

Mate you need to stop copying and pasting stuff, it is theft of intellectual property.
The sites you lift stuff from and writers who put the pieces together get paid through clicks and readerships on their sites. You posting this stuff without even given attribution is harmful to livelihoods. These people spend time to research and prepare these pieces and are totally driven by clicks to the stories to then get clicks to advertising.
Just put a link to the story with a brief summary then people can still read it and discuss having clicked to read the article and no one is hurt. I am amazed mods have not stamped on this.
If it was an actual article I would agree with you
But the above is a standard press release whats the problem
Your post in my view is way over the top
Don't be silly Spud, i posted it here but could of on any one of a dozen posts this last week. Most are research written articles and I am confused why you are focusing on this one thread for your point which is nullified by the other threads

Yeah this is just a standard press release - although I agree with Toby's point in general.
