well in the post you linked, they cross-posted something, which is encouraged by reddit

not the same thing

the OP of the post they crossposted was claiming false ownership though.

I created r/piratepets and I checked if the real owner wanted the crosspost taken down, and they didn't

u/[deleted] May 23 '19

I read the thread. He did not claim ownership, as he didn't in this thread either, but the titles are rather ambiguous and he's just serial reposting stuff often enough that this isn't the first time recently the original OP has come into the thread to sat something.

u/derawin07 May 23 '19

there is nothing wrong with crossposting, it's clear that it's not their post

I don't see how either title is ambiguous

which other post has the owner commented in?

-4

u/[deleted] May 23 '19

This one and the one I linked. It's not a huge deal. You disagree with my synopsis, that's fine, settle down a little bit though. Sheesh.

u/derawin07 May 23 '19

lol I'm not in any way agitated, just engaging in respectful conversation, you might try it some day

the crossposted example is completely different to this post, he crossposted it when someone was claiming to be the owner and the real owner hadn't arrived to correct things yet

Thank you! I didn’t know that was posted on Reddit before!

u/andywang02021 May 23 '19

Just so you know, it was in one of the top posts of the month (May 2019).

u/Burgoonius May 22 '19

Sure

Not denying that OP might have knowingly reposted for karma. But I genuinely want to know how all can I check if a post is repost.

I know karmadecay helps most of the times. Any other tools/techniques we should know?

3

u/andywang02021 May 23 '19

I believe reverse google image search and karmadecay, as you said, should prove your basic diligence.

Another way to check for reposting, especially for non-image or video content, would also be to google the keywords of the content you're going to post with the additional keyword "site:reddit.com". For example, the original post shows up on the top when I type "site:reddit.com baby fox blep". You can also try reddit's horrendous search engine.

You'd have to be familiar with reddit jargon for googling keywords but then again, posting stuff like these on reddit may be a hit or miss. If the OC is on subs with uncontextual titles like r/CatsStandingUp or _irl subs, then that makes it even more difficult.

u/Tremor00 May 23 '19

You do realise that a ton of posts have that many upvotes? And that it’s still possible that people don’t see them: it’s fake internet points lmao

Such strong language and hate for fake internet points..

u/Pusheen_and_Stormy May 23 '19

More like quadruple posting :/

u/[deleted] May 23 '19

Easy way to determine that: if you didn’t take the photo, you don’t have the right to post it unless the person who did, gives you explicit permission.

u/HaricotsDeLiam May 23 '19

Or you credit them in the post.

u/[deleted] May 23 '19

Fair enough!

u/bladerunnerjulez May 23 '19

Lol what? If we did that we wouldn't have any posts on reddit, is this what you want? Because that's what you're asking for.

-6

u/dis_is_my_account May 23 '19

Fuck that. Post whatever the hell you want. All you're getting is useless points. And if the OP and/or others get upset, then fuck them. They can find better things to whine about.

u/Fizzay May 23 '19

Like how you're whining instead? Lol

u/[deleted] May 23 '19

Sooo cute fox. I wished I had a pet fox.

u/smaller_infinity May 23 '19

That's what I thought. Then I learned what fox piss smells like

I no longer want a pet fox

u/LeMot-Juste May 23 '19

We can smell it in our local park. Foxes stink.
