    After being threatened with legal action due to copyright infringement, the John Cow blog is now stepping down and going offline! :D

    Linkbait?

    Read about it here!

    How is it copy right infringement if John Chow isn't the one who is suing?

    My guess is that it is John Chow. Besides, the number of x's in the signature are equal to number of alphabets in john chow.

    Eeek, double post of my thread :D

    I think it's a scam. Cow hasn't talked since he posted it.

    It seems more like a publicity stunt.

    Not a publicity stunt because as someone stated earlier, the site is being redirected to John Chows site now. And the funny thing is that John Chow has offered to give the cow a hand in getting through this mess... ???

    How does that not make it a publicity stunt? It's possible that John Chow was doing it himself the whole time, although thats... a questionable action.

    i guess hes made enough out of it. doesnt really matter if it goes down now, probably he can start something new out of cash generated.
