Hodaka Rider Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 Here's a weird one. Seems to be a clone of our board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebz Posted September 12, 2003 Share Posted September 12, 2003 I read through the post about offroad tires on that board.. It starts off referring to the tires on Qman's Brat.. hmm.. how many of us are on that board aswell, I wonder. I see mudrat participates as "simon" over there.

Hodaka Rider Posted September 12, 2003 Author Share Posted September 12, 2003 It is an exact copy of some of our posts, with different names. I think we need to nuke them somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebz Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 Ok.. I retract what I said about mudrat participating as simon.. the sig threw me.. I noticed that simon posted later with what appears to be Jareds sig On the offroad tire post, it has a post that is an exact copy of the offroad tire rating thing.. I think it was Zap that posted it here? Anyway.. they are directly copying posts from here without giving credit to the original poster or board.. that is kind of irritating I see posts from Zap, Junkie, Jared, JCDenton.. don't know how many others have been straight copied over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHATBRAT Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 I think it is strange why they would do that. Why don't they just join our board???? Why waste time/effort copying??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoughtCom Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 That is extremely weird, it looks like a site that's trying to make it look like they have forums for every type of car. Which the way they chose to populate their boards is a silly way to do it. Maybe shawnw should e-mail them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonOfScio Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 nuke sounds good. hehe. mwaahhahahaha.... uh, don't know if it's the thing to do actually. could cause trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebz Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 May cause trouble, but it irks the hell out of me for those people to take our posts, our experiences and our information and present it as their own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XSNRG Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 That's not a good way to get a board going. Is there a legal issue there? It's like the Seinfeld episode where there are three guys that are very similar to Jerry, George and Kramer but different and boring.

GeneralDisorder Posted September 13, 2003 Share Posted September 13, 2003 There's definate lagal issues with that - it's absurd. But unfortunately, they are probably in some other country.... someone want to do a traceroute on their IP? But why don't we just sign up for their board, and flood it with useless, horrible posts about how they stole our posts? With links in every post to the real board?
