    Just let it out the bag who the culprit is, so everyone can be on the lookout for whoever this is.

    Because he references DP way to much in his posts. That means he has an affection towards this forum, which 90% makes him a member.

    Ask Minstrel to tell you more. He's the shrink.. He knows these stuff.

    I'm positive he's a member here.

    This is happening a lot lately and in a big scale. What I mean is that there are “people” actually stealing entire sites content and using it as there own. I don’t know what you can do about it but I wouldn’t let it slide. I left him a nice little comment:D, can’t believe he’s not using comment moderation.

    I added to the list of unpleasant comments (and flagged his blog). I can't believe he still hasn't taken the article down!

    I know this is serious but some times they do it so openly that it almost makes it funny. One person copied a whole site including the java scripts that were showing my ads from my central database. He changed the name of the site but probably couldn't figure out the java scripts and if he took it out then page format wouldn't look good, so he left it. He then emailed me at another site that I have and asked to exchange links with me and that was how I found about this. I thought as long as he is showing my ads then why not. :D

    Unfortunately, whoever the culprit is, they don't have a link to the blog in their signature :)

    Take advantage of the fact that he's hotlinking to your images.

    Think about it - you can put up any image you want on his blog right now.

    I flagged him too, he seems not to care! Just look at the way he said "So what :D" he don't know he's playing with fire!
