Copycat Alert
-
@greta-martin Thank you sweetie, that is so kind. I think sometimes the newbies don't quite understand the etiquette rules of this wonderful platform. Because she was new I had been liking her sets to offer encouragement and I find it odd she would do a copy of mine. Kind of rude.
-
She is a copier. I just checked and she copied my complete denim set right after your set.
-
@idetached Sorry it happened to you too.
-
She doesn't have any items collected so I think she will continue to copy rather than look for her own for a while! She may not know how to clip her own items! Either way what she's doing is shady!
-
@idetached She did it again! I'm almost ready to reach out to see if she needs help figuring things out. LOL
Bless her heart, probably a young girl.

@fashionmonkey Gosh , again ! ! ! I assume it's a young girl who doesn't know how URSTYLE works and doesn't know that when creating a set you can choose from the Urstyle store, or doesn't know how to clip items, so this really can't have been done deliberately. That would be really rude to the other members ... if there are more copied sets from other people I will also go and have a look if there is anything of mine which she also copied
... Perhaps send a friendly but clear private message to draw her attention to the situation. It will give you more clarity about what exactly the purpose of the copy sets is ... Enjoy your Sunday evening my dear

Dear, there is an option to block it completely. Go to that person's page, in the upper right corner you have three dots. when you press them, you come across the section "Block User". She has no way to see your page anymore. I know that this is the only way for now, maybe there is another, I only know about this one.
-
@love_nature Thank you, I did block her but it doesn't keep her from taking all my items from a published set because after I blocked her it happened again. But, maybe she had already saved those items prior. Who knows. Also, the two sets she pulled from had been on home page. I think she just doesn't quite know how to find items another way.
-
@greta-martin I agree, I'm starting to think it isn't deliberate either. She probably just doesn't know how to find her own items.
-
@fashionmonkey I noticed she copied another set that someone else created. Although you have her blocked she can still copy from published pages. Maybe if she does it a 3rd time you can message her. I haven't done another fashion set but I blocked her just in case she is pulling from the profile sets.
-
Just came across your post & I'm sorry to hear this happened to you. Although this member may be someone who doesn't understand how URStyle works, I blocked her. There's a tutorial about how to make a set on URStyle that may be helpful to her. That said, I suggest reporting it to admin.
