dapreview.net — Everyone remembers recent stories about Engadget practicing biased reporting when it came to Apple products, well now it seems Peter Rojas is up to no good again by continually ripping stories from DapReview.net and not giving them any credit.

Just in case some of you aren't aware, the international "do not" symbol beside each user's name in their comment allows you to ignore (make invisible) a user's comments from all stories.Not saying who to use it on but if someone is not playing nice and consistantly making comments with little value to stories and you simply went to make them go away, this is the symbol to click. You can always "unignore" them from your profile page.You can even ignore me if you want. Heaven knows I contribute little of value.

May I ask exactly what you mean? We've linked directly back to DAPreview exactly as they've requested.

"...but is that not the purpose of a their blog...to bring together the best gadget news and rumours from around the web?" If they would also link to the people who put in the original effort of finding the news and/or creating it we would have no problem at all with that. In fact we would be very thankful. But as it turns out Engadget does have a blacklist and they should stop denying this fact.By the way - your link doesn't work Andru:<a class="user" href="http://www.digg.com/links/Engadget">http://www.digg.com/links/Engadget</a>'s_Exclusionist_Tactics_Are_NOT_An_Isolated_Incident

Wow. This is a good story that got WAY out of control. Kudus to the doods who found the inconsistent blogging and cropped photos etc. Shame on all of you that are flaming Engadget, man. Sites like Engadget, digg and slashdot are success stories because they are INCLUSIVE in their creation of a community. If someone makes an error, so be it, but the community that these people have assembled from hard work and passionate reporting can't be denied.

You should add (speculation) after "blacklisted" too.

You may have a heavy workload, but if the watermark clearly says DAPreview.net, how hard is it to misunderstand it? It's possible to understand if you forgot to credit them, but to wilfully remove their watermark and to say it's a mistake? That's asking a lot for people to 'understand'.

Vincent, perhaps you'd like to disclose to the readers of Digg that you were fired from Engadget for your gross incompetence at Defcon and your complete inability to turn in work that met our editorial standards? Did you know that after I fired you I had several people from Hack-A-Day, Engadget, and WIN thank me for getting rid of you? I don't know Noah, but I'm guessing that he had little patience for your antics either.
