I ended up locking the forums up from view to unregistered users 'cept for the Site Information & News forum.

Tired of seeing threads plagerized. If it continues, there's either a spy on the site or he's getting in somehow unbeknownst to me! *lol*

I hate having to do this tho but I like what's mine to be mine - not mimicked! *lol*

I was also an admin on his site before a friend of mine and I made our own site. He went so far as to steal every single one of my smilies and didn't even bother changing some of the custom names I gave them. He's stolen news storied right from the site. The reason I know this to be a fact is because I'd change words in the middle of the story so they weren't exactly like the original story and I caught him with those changed words in his stories.

He's been banned from my site for his stupid antics. He tries to get on once in awhile and then cries like a woman when he isn't allowed to get on.

The straw that broke the camel's back was when I have almost 10,000 posts and he broke up with his hideous girlfriend and then he deleted the whole board and started it over. Then I got to 3000 posts and he did it again. And again, and again, and again.

I got sick of it, so I left.

My site is news stories/debates topics of no particular topic/whatever and I like it a lot.

Just ignore him and he'll go away eventually.

Well they do say to keep your friends close and your enemies closer right?

We've mended fences in a way at least.

No more imitating my site!

Thats... an infringment of copyright - and bad practise.

Send him a request to remove the categories - and if he fails to comply report him to his host - and plaster what hes done everywhere you can.

Make sure as many people as possible know hes a theif (Im not in the slightest vindictive... honestly )

Oh this is annoying. I had a disgruntled mod start a forum and it is pretty much exactly like mine, they are even stealing our topics. LOL I just figure they are not as good at it as me and need to copy. Some day maybe they will feel pretty foolish.

Ask them what year they're going to graduate from high school so you can send them a present
