Plagairism site?

Mike Ellison

Yea, I can't load them now either. When I found one of my articles on their site, I submitted a note pointing out their plagiarism on their "contact us" page. Now it looks like their site is down. I'm not even sure my form submitted properly.

Now why would developers go to a site for advice when the site can't even stay up for more then 2 minutes?

It looks like they're sooo intent on copying CP, they copied the performance issues from a few months back too ... wow, that's dedication.

I'm largely language agnostic

After a while they all bug me :doh:

The site is now broken

Aha, the CP viruses are doing their job then. :)

I was thinking about DDoSing the site, but considering it's current state, I think the site owners have done that job already.

So the creationist says: Everything must have a designer. God designed everything. I say: Why is God the only exception? Why not make the "designs" (like man) exceptions and make God a creation of man?

After trying for 15 minutes. This is what I got: The page cannot be displayed. :)

It looks like a pretty new website and hence my proxy categorization catalog does not still have a matching entry for it. How about the owner (from WHOIS)?

Done a whois, in short he's a guy from China, registered the site with godaddy. Also got his full address, phone number and gmail on there. Why people don't pay the extra couple of quid for the privacy protection option I don't know.

You can't get a hold of him anyway if he is in China... So why pay for privacy? Anyway, the site is reachable and does not perform too bad right now. It looks messy though. I think he wants lots of page views from search engines for his ads... Of which there are LOTS. There's an anti-spyware ad on the sidebar right now... ironic, somehow, uh?! Cheers, Chris

Always good to know the person's address. You might be making a trip to China one day, and one should never underestimate the educational power of knocking on someone's door and saying [Deleted...] (translation: _copy my CodeProject articles and I will have to cripple you_) Peace! :P [Edit: Damn, took a bit to get the Chinese to appear in the Preview correctly and then it would not let me save the post becuase it has Unicode characters in it - sorry everyone!]

That whole Tibet controversy is nothing compared to the chaos that would ensue if we allow this to continue. They must be stopped.
