Loony Pandora,

As I noted in the BoardMod forums (http://www.boardmod.org/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=general;action=display;num=1077738030), I paid someone else to do the site design for me.

I have now beat the hell out of changed my designers, and a new site is on the way. Above also applies to Lilac Leopard's suggestions

I know you are obviously peeved, but I think this posting is a little unfair.  

Thanks for your help with my calendar problems.

Remember folks: it's ok to steal little bits from everywhere, just don't nick a whole big chunk at a time or you'll be caught!

Thanks Loony Pandora.

As I said, it may be Monday before the site changes, as I have had to find a new designer, but after that point, no more silliness.  

Sorry for my incessant postings, but I am really embarrassed by the whole thing. :-[

And thanks to you too, Lilac Leopard

That was my motto throughout my 3 year creative writing course...


Yay for plagiarism!!!

and of course, I wouldn't condone anyone spamming a site to death, it's just plain snide

I can't think of anyone on here who would bother. Wouldn't achieve anything and whoever did it would look like a fool.
"Hey, I'm going to be REAL mature and spam someone's site because it looks like another one..." I suppose you never know though.

EXTREME!

 
thing is it doesn't just look like another one... it IS VR... the guy has literally nicked the whole of VR. But never mind, it's sorted now, was all handled very well. I think Andrew was amazed that anyone would have the cheek to nick it, as well as anything else! And to think he'd never have known if the poor guy who owns the site hadn't asked for help... quite disturbing really!!!

Not here much.

 
My theory: That Dude is a THIEF, and is merely blaming a web designer - why would a "pro" nick stuff from other sites? That guy's just fobbing you off with excuses.
Too often we lose sight of life's simple pleasures. Remember, when someone annoys you, it takes 42 muscles in your face to frown. But it only takes 4 muscles to extend your arm and slap the motherf*cker upside the head.

And why would a 'reputable' web designer turn down publicity by not being listed anywhere in the site's credits - or even risk any of his reputation by stealing other people's designs?

It all sounds a bit suspicious to me.

In fact, it seems like it is.

The first screenshot sees his forum buddies offering praise for his design skills
Screenshot 1

Now, the c*nt takes their bait..

Screenshot 2

So, considering he's not credited anybody else with designing the site; He's either lying to his friends by making them believe he toiled night and day to create the site, or he's lying to us by saying a pro web designer stole Andy's site design, never took any credit for it (although reputation means a lot in that game) and he is just the poor, unfortunate c*nt who got caught up in the deception.  

Plus, when he says BEFORE, wouldn't that seem to suggest he's taking credit for the look of the site BEFORE he changed it from being, essentially, Andys?

Either way, he's ripping some off.

He paid himself to do it... it was his own design company that made this site, I think... andrew found that yesterday. He's still nicked all andrew's code y'know... just not the images this time. And we know it's his code cause it has all Andrew' mistakes

Rayanne Graff: His name is George. Also, he started Spam.
Rayanne Graff: i spoke to him a couple of times and that was in October of 2009.
the doc: Wow, a proper old head
Rayanne Graff: Yeah, he was the 15th person to join.
satansrubberduck: I didn't directly start Spam. Also the proof of that long since disappeared.
Rayanne Graff: No, it didn't; the Spam spam spam you made in 2002 is on page 105 of the Spam board.
satansrubberduck: Oh. I looked for it years ago and couldn't find it. The colour tags are (thankfully) broken.
satansrubberduck: Odd to think it's been over a decade since I first got involved with 'Zine.
Claire: It's not odd to me since I've just had the exact same conversation with you...
