BC getting ripped off?

[OMAR]

I was searching around and stumbled onto this site: http://kesslerkomics.com/

It appears that they just flat-out steal all their stories from BC and one or two other sites. They do provide a link, but they reprint the whole article every time. Is that OK? Seems like a rip-off to me.

Don't worry, dude.

Just looks like an aggregator.
Can't avoid aggregators as a news site, see the newspapers v google, and these guys are taking stuff from everywhere.
Comics Alliance and others are in there, and we're all categorised at the bottom.
Also; they look like a store in texas (fort worth?), so they're probably running spider (like) services for their customers.

I'd actually love it if my store did shit like this!

That said, if Rich/Mark/Avatarian Gods are unhappy with being aggregated, then they just have to make an official request to the offenders (or the software company that they use) to cease and desist, and they should be good ... I think.

Do they have images in their RSS feeds?
