I wasn't aware that there was anything of ill repute going on with Vizard--thanks for the heads up.  That being said, since I can't reverse the outcome of this comp and remove an honorable mention, I'll say that Hopkins gets the honorable mention via Vizard, and next time you enter one of my comps, Vizard, you better make it your own work.  Man up--what goes around, eventually comes around, and someday you're going to get bit on the ass for your actions in life.  Nothing short of theivery.

Yeah the fool got a scolding earlier about poems he'd stolen from other DUP members, poems stolen from other places, creating fake profiles, lying, making up drama... on and on. Now he's publishing famous works as his own. Just one of the dumbest combinations of behavior seen here in a while.

How he's not banned is a mystery.

Wow, that's lame.

Vizard's entry is plagiarized.

Oh, we got it Braggman. I just couldn't get to my computer in time this afternoon to post. Most of his work is plagiarized as was another fake-poet who went by the name of Virgin. We are working at keeping it real pure...

Thanks for helping us detect the counterfeits.

Sad that we might actually need this, but maybe you guys can start a sticky thread for reporting/outing things like this?  That way even if the powers that be can't get in here right away, like you weren't able to, then at least everyone can get a heads-up, by checking the thread to see who's found out what, etc.

Great idea Madame Lavender! We need to have everyone helping us out.  Magdalena and other poets have told me they have seen their work posted in other places.  We must be vigilant.
