Do you find it weird when people reblog you but remove the quotes from your description?

I know I haven’t been quite creative in my recent posts (it’s been a while since I’d tried being creative), but I still find it uncomfortable when rebloggers remove the blockquotes from the text that I’ve written along with it.

I think calling it stealing is going a bit overboard, but seeing text like that in a photo description makes it look like the reblogger typed those words themselves, which they didn’t.

I dunno, maybe I’m being oversensitive. I’m at least thankful that the cosplayer/photographer is credited, but I suggest that if you want to remove the blockquote, just edit the text so that it’s not a copy-paste of mine, and I wouldn’t even mind. (ie, just copying the cosplayer/photog names)

PS At least it’s not as bad as changing the source links. (And followers, I do hope you DO NOT change the source links and add your own, because we know they are neither yours nor mine. But if you are the cosplayer or photographer involved, message me and I’all be too glad to add your tumblr link or take the photo down, whichever you please.)
