Just checked my inbox and the front page and seen that Viperlair are having the same problem we had a while back. Well more of a problem since the guy just shoddily removed the watermarks and still has the article up. I'm wondering why there isnt a site set up to deal with this, I think it would help to have some site where theft of articles can be reported and the community can umm do something about it:angel:

I did read the article and the methods used to jack the news were very crude.. certainly the guy did not deserve to keep his article up after the blatant theft...

perhaps you should set up a site called flibblemeister.com or something to handle all such incidents..

I guess this is refuring to the news post on the front page on the 20th ;)

Sites like that should get taken down, as I guess just shooting them isnt allowed?

I saw somebody already used some javascript insertion to display an insulting pop-up on his site. Let me see what I can do :)

[update]

Poor guy, his site appears to be vulnerable to the webdav exploit. I don't think i'll risk it, but someone else is bound to sooner or later :)
