That nasty issue again

Hello folks, I'm not here with any craft, just a rather sad follow up to my post last month here about the activities of another blogger copying work.

This blogger has apparently only just decided to put her side forward and last evening added a post to her blog accusing me of cowardice and plagiarism and whilst she has not named me in her post, has clearly circulated my name to friends and followers who appear to be accepting her explanation resulting in some of those people taking great delight in leaving offensive comments on my blog.

All offensive comments have and will be deleted as they appear, but will be saved and reported to blogger along with those who have already or may in the future post disparaging comments about me on their own blogs as they have threatened to do.

I did not name the person in my blog posts and did not pass her name to others so as not to cause her further distress whilst allowing her the opportunity to make her apologies, but it seems she was not prepared to do so.

It is no surprise that she claims complete innocence and to have never received my mail last month (of which she was sent another copy), yet a clean up of her blog happened shortly after it was originally sent. Her blog post refers to there being no evidence of her wrong doing, but she of course is fully aware of the material she deleted. I have since found out that it is possible to copy a persons web pages, but by then it was too late as she had removed the offending posts and evidence. But I understand there may be a way of retrieving deleted archived material and will be investigating that route.

Fortunately there are reliable and genuine friends who saw and witnessed the since deleted posts from this persons blog and I have no reservations or guilt at having raised the issue in the first place and stand by all I said last month.
