Topic Craze and Lotsasites: Why is my site listed there?
Mood:  irritated
Topic: rant
Well, it seems that, for the last few months, one of my sites (Mayv's Musings) has been listed at Topic Craze and Lotsasites. This is disconcerting to me as I NEVER gave anyone permission to do this, and I have no way of knowing who did or of editing the inaccurate descriptions that were posted. I don't even have an account there!

So if you see any of my sites on Topic Craze, Lotsasites, or any listing that allows just anyone to add a site, the description will likely NOT be accurate and is NOT authorised by me.

I am the ONLY person who edits my sites and I do NOT appreciate other people taking such liberties with my work. I take great pride in the effort I put into my writing and my sites. This is why it seems like I don't update that often: I like to get things just right before I publish.

For this sort of thing to happen (my sites being listed without my knowledge or approval) is just - I can't even describe how I feel about this!

It almost feels like I've been plagiarised. I feel betrayed, somehow, and exposed. Please, please do not submit my sites to those types of listings. If you think my site would benefit from being listed, tell me about it so I can consider it. Then, if I decide it's a good idea, I can submit my site with an accurate description.

I do list my sites at webring.com, though, a site which only allows site owners to list their own sites.
