OK - just that you were mentioned in that thread a couple of times, of being associated with this lot in some way... for your own sake, it may be as well for you to make your position quite clear. Fred
Fred, First I thank you for bringing me the other Lounge Thread, which was waiting for my answer. I check my emails not that frequently. I am trying to make things clear and I don't have any concrete relationships with Spider & Co. As a token gesture, here is my standpoint: http://www.codeproject.com/lounge.asp?msg=2207199#xx2207199xx[^]

AFAIK, I could not see a link to BuzzyCode from Spider site. Since I am also just a very casual, very ordinary, dumb member there. But they have a very large network of sites. Without delving into a deeper search, just as a FIR (First Information Report), the following are the sites that I could recall as sister sites of Dotnetspider: 1) TonyJohn.com[^] 2) SpiderKerala.com[^] 3) IndianStudyChannel.com[^] 4) SQLSpider.com[^] They might be having plethora of underground sites as well. Neither I have time nor I have resources to research on all those nor they fall within my realm.

You mentioned in a thread you linked to that you have been pointing out this trend for quite a while... why have you not reconsidered your contribution previously, or reported these people to the relevant authority (web hosts, site owners of plagarized sites etc). It seems to me you've been turning a "blind eye" to this for quite some time judging by how long these ripoff sites have been operarating.

Both BuzzyCode and DotNetSpider seem to be operated by LogicsLab (you can see that the offshoring/outsourcing links from both sites go there; and both sites use the same Instant chat IDs too). So there is a very clear connection between the 2 sites. This automatically incriminates Tony John too - since he's the guy with the more visible public profile. But it is possible that a partner of his may be running BuzzyCode without Tony John's approval. In that case it may be in the best interests of Tony John and DotNetSpider to disassociate themselves from LogicsLab.

My latest book : C++/CLI in Action / Amazon.com linkI really don't know why people are so much behind 'money-minded'. They just do a good community service website like Dotnetspider but behind the scenes one dirty website (on par pornography :mad:) like BuzzyCode is being operated. Regret if I am harsh. But I strongly feel that Plagarism or Credit Theft must be made synonymous to Pornography. The original author really breaks down on seeing his hard-blood-shed article earning credits for someone else ("the thief"). The Country's Law can be muted by these bullies but Nature's law would answer them.

I found lot of discussions are going on about dotnetspider. As the owner and webmaster of dotnetspider, it is my responsibility to clarify certain points here: - I own dotnetspider.com and several other sites (AspSpider.NET, aspspider.* spiderkerala.com, tamilspider.com, indiastudychannel.com, asianspider.com, yoursmartkerala.com etc are some of them and few others are coming up). - I use Logic Labs as my offshore development company. They do a great job as an offshore partner. Recently, I have tightly integrated their services in dotnetspider, allowing clients to even directly contact Logic Labs through dotnetspider. - I have absolutely no relation with the BuzzyCode and I have never seen that site in the past. Today I learnt that it is owned by the same company that do offshore services for me. But unless it affects dotnetspider's reputation or business, I am not going to worry too much about it since it is not directly related to my business relation with Logic Labs. In one of the threads, Deepak Vasudevan mentioned:
"Since it is an Indian website, I think, I am trying to see if we can approach the Intellectual Property Infringments in India or CyberCrime cell for a redressal."
dotnetspider is registered in USA, not in India. Deepak, let me ask you one thing. You have been working very closely with me for past several months. You have given me valuable suggestions in the past and I have done a lot of changes in dotnetspider based on your feedback. You are even listed in [^] as a core member of spider team. It would have been nice if you had asked me directly before you post something silly about dotnetspider here! Now let me talk about the copy right violations. I have never copied articles and published. I have not requested anyone to do this for dotnetspider and do not encourage this. But dotnetspider may have published copied articles. And so is CodeProject. It is practically impossible for any website to completely stop this.

Tony, Even now, I haven't openly objected to Dotnetspider. The entire CP concern is about the sister concern group that is plagiarizing and spoiling the name. I admit that I do give a lot of feedbacks and suggestions. The most beautiful thing in DotNetSpider would be its gentle take-the-fresh software graduates by hand. And this is a very delicate process. We should be doubly, triply be careful that they do not have any ill-effects from such bad company like LogicIndia or other black sheep. Regarding the various suggestions, in fact, I feel that the most good things should never be kept at heart and should be shared across for the benefit of everyone. In fact, CPians know me suggesting various features in the Suggestions/Bug Reports of CodeProject as well.

There is nothing hurting on DotNetSpider as such. The only thing is that, on a war-footing basis, the changes need to be included so that our back-stabbers from the same offshoring does not cast thier ill-effects on DotNetSpider.

Hello Tony, As long as you continue to be associated with a company that has been involving in mass plagiarism, your company will be seen as part of the group too. In fact a couple of CPians used IM-chat to talk to BuzzyCoode tech support - and the tech support initially introduced himself/herself as DotNetSpider tech-support. So it's clear that the same people are tech-supporting both websites. Nobody in their right mind will trust a company like Logic Labs - because of what they are doing with Buzzy Code. So by using Logic Labs as your partner in offshore outsourcing, your company and website is losing public trust too and will be seen as part of the fraudsters. If you were sincere in your comments that you were not aware of buzzycode (which is strange since it's linked to from the Logic Labs web site), then you should immediately detach yourself from that company and also indicate to the public that you were not aware of the illegal activities that Logic Labs has been doing. Until you do that, as far as the public is considered you will be a part of the nexus.

No company is doing tech support for dotnetspider. I am only one who is running it. (I do pay few people occasionally for various contributions) I spoke to Logic Labs today. They mentioned that when someone contact them through the IM-chat links published in dotnetspider, they introduce as 'offshore division of dotnetspider'. I have asked them to clearly indicate their relation with dotnetspider in future.
Nishant Sivakumar wrote:

I have tried few other companies in the past for offshore services. (Even now I use few other companies to handle overflow projects.) Due to the nature of the projects I get, large companies like TCS, Wipro or Infosys are not suitable for me. I need an offshore company who is "cheap" on rates and do a quality job. Logic Labs does that pretty well for me. My past experience says it is not easy to find another company who meets this criteria, without taking the risk of screwing up few projects.
Nishant Sivakumar wrote:

May be I have seen that site in the past when I interviewed Logic Labs few years back for my offshore development services. I do not usually visit their websites or enquire about their other business. Offshore services is a business I have completly outsourced. Clients usually contact Logic Labs directly through many of my websites and I trust Logic Labs on their monthly payment reports. I looked at Logic Lab's website today (I had to google few minutes to find it) and noticed they have given few links in the bottom to some silly sites including BuzzyCode. But I am not sure if I can do anything about it since my relation to them is limited to offshore outsourcing only. I even called them today to ask them about the CP threads, but I did not request them to shutdown that site since I have no business to do that. <

Thanks for the comments. One clarification though: We make it very easy to report articles and as soon as an article is reported as plagarised we investigate and delete. We do not allow copied articles on CodeProject.com. Purgatory is for poor articles that are given a second chance. Plagarised articles are not given a second chance and are not moved to Purgatory. They are, as I said, deleted. I understand as well as anyone the difficulty in policing content but it is a site's responsbility to provide a means for the community to do the policing and to respond as soon as possible to resolve issues.
