I still think it's wrong to copy paid artcle. I agree that authors and mods are careful not to making a practice. But not doing the wrong thing often doesn't make doing the wrong thing once right.

I don' think Beaver was trying to make this a big deal. It was another subscriber asking it and then he answered. The post was not pinned or anything. You really need to look to find it. In comparison, it seems that Brian was trying to make it a scene. We all know TomVH has his own source. Just state that is enough. There is no point attacking others based on their typos on a blackberry message. This is quite disappointing.

I love this site and TomVH's info. I hit F5 on this site over 100 times a day.

I think TomVH gets all info by talking to kids himself. And I don't agree with Beaver's accusation towards TomVH.

However, Tim's post copying scout's paid article is WRONG. I think Scout.com has every right to be upset about this. I hope it's oversight. I'd agree it's unethical if it's intentional.

Just my 2 cents.
