Excellent article and even though I am not a member of any of these groups YET, you pointed out some good things. I am sorry, but not surprised to see that you ended up with comments that became ugly and flaming, but that is just the nature of the Rose. My opinion of copycat is even if this is true SO WHAT! Ideas are grown and matured from other ideas. In the long run, that is what makes the world go round. Now, I don't believe in copying word for word what anyone says, but I have to admit all though my life I did things as I saw that it was successful for others, and then implemented my own ideas to go with it. Over a year ago I wrote a blog on copycats. http://yngathrrt.blogspot.com/2006/03/copycatcopycat-what-is-all-this-fu...

Now Rose, this is directed at you. I know I said I would not blog about you anymore, and will not. And Dane, if you would like to delete this comment, I understand. Rose, Today's Woman is not successful, but it did have the opportunity to be at one time. Your membership has dropped from over 1,000 it was at one point to about 650 now. You use to have a monthly goal of $250.00 that did not even get a dime for at least 2 months, so therefore you have changed it to Support Today's Woman. Can't say that I blame you for doing that, as it must have been somewhat embarrassing for all the members to see nothing there, and they were not going to donate either. You blew your chance o having TW successful as you are all over the internet making problems for people to fill your own need for attention. How sad for you.

Many people already know (even those not a member at BC) that this all started due to them not bowing down to you and making their TOS only to fit your needs. And when that was over, and they banned you, you just had to dream up a new way to cause trouble for them by saying they were a copycat site.

Now, rule of thumb for everyone who reads this. When Rose says she is not going to comment anymore, just take that as a given that she will comment. This happens over and over again everywhere with her. She just cannot tolerate the fact that she did not have the last redundancy reply. Again, great post, and this is my only and last reply. http://cyberstalkers.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html Katie

PS, BTW Rose, I have gotten a great deal of hits to my blogs, as it appears everyone is googling you, or placing links to my blogs concerning your behavior all over the place.
