Do you hate people that 'game' the Active Rain system?

Their bogs are nothing more than copy and paste sections of their websites or actually plagiarisms from other websites?

I do!

Really, I don't care about the points system here on AR but I do think that it does reward those who contribute unlike some of the other networking sites on the web...

What I truly despise are members that try to take advantage of the system...nothing makes me more angry (except for loan officers that try to bait and switch borrowers)...

If you read my post Why do you cheat on Active Rain?, then you would understand my frustration with the system...

I had a rogue loan officer that was copying and pasting bogus content on his bog in an attempt to help his main account gain points...

I emailed him on two occasions and asked him to remove duplicate material to make it fair to other members...he never responded...

You see, I am a newer member of AR, been here a month and I'm not sure how things work...However, I've started speaking with some of the AR members in my area that have been here for awhile and networking with them...

Finally, I asked one of the members what should be done about this rogue blogger...This member emailed another member who knew somebody, who knew somebody at AR...one of those "I know a guy who know's a guy who know's a guy" type things...lots of layers involved...

What did they do for me?

Well, they gave me an email address... and I sent an email...and a couple hours later a received a response...

What did the email say?

Well, to paraphrase...it said... We do not allow this and he will be given a choice to delete all of his accounts and blogs except for one...or they will all be deleted...
