    Default Apologies to my blog/ forum readers for my plagiarism of Penny Arcade article

    I would like to apologies to all the forum members and my blog readers for unknowingly plagiarizing an Penny Arcade article and misleading them into making them believe that it was my own work. As a blogger I should have known better and done my research properly before posting an article regarding piracy when part of my article was plagiarized thus making the credibility and my point of view nul and void, and also loosing credibility as a blogger. I have taken the correct measures by editing all my blog posts and forum posts and apologizing the the gaming community and all those involved.

    I think why people got so angry is that sometimes you are a bit critical and hostile.

    Exactly, we all make mistakes and I for one am not going to crucify you for one transgression. What's done is done, you admitted your fault, so let bygones be bygones.

    I pride myself on being a semi professional blogger and I would hate it if someone plagiarized my work I should have known better maybe I am a bit hard on myself but I think in this case it is deserved.

    Mistakes happen, as long as you learn from them everything is good. We are all human afterall.

    I am not sure what to believe but I will give you the benefit of the doubt. But like Tsar said, you certainly come off far too hostile towards others. Often I can agree with what you say, just not how you say it.
