It's not intended to be a cj ripoff - it just sorta happened that way.
I realize it looks like it, but I'm really not anywhere in the class that cj is, and I'm not in competition with them, so it doesn't really matter.Comment

I have 3 AVS CJ (Type/Concept) ripoff sites, but they all point to CJ in a very obvious way, so I dont think they will mind the quality traffic they get.
Your site is SO obvious, how you can say it is not? The whole design is the same!
And then to put it in your GFY sig !!??!! ....... are you mad?

I've been running mentalshed.com for almost 2 years now and have been slowly changing the design the whole time. It's not like I bought a domain name yesterday and ripped off cj.Comment

1. My traffic varies between 800-1500 uniques/day
2. I just set up the ad section today, and yeah I barrowed the look, but on a very small scale.
3. I'm not competing with them. I'm just making my own money in my own corner of the net. I'm not here to impress anyone.Comment

CJ is a great concept...... It is generic, however, but in the same way "porn" can be "copied" so can the CJ concept.
But too just rip off the site is not a good move.

Yo Chuk,
Sorry, for delay, I've been offline for a bit. I think you should call me for a little chat. That would be the best way to handle this. I know imitation is the ultimate flattery, but for you to say you did anything other than steal is bullshit. Content is content, we've got no more of a claim to it than you do. BUT we damn sure take a claim to our design. Christ man, you even stole our DHTML nav.
You are in competition with us, so don't say anything otherwise. You'll never make any real competition for us, especially because your site wreaks of rip-off of such a well known brand.
All this said, I don't feel like dealing with this in any major way. Too small time. Give credit where credit is due, throw up a few links to CJ and we'll call it a day.

I'm not trying to be a hardass, but all of you, who have nothing to do with it, are. And I'm not lying about shit. I barrowed some ideas, and I fucked up. It's just pushing me to work harder rather than take the easy way down the design path.
I always have a hard time designing shit for myself, but I've never had any complaints from clients.
So I'm not being a hardass, I'm just telling you igorant assholes to shut the fuck up. Until it has anything to do with you, just fuck off

No FATPAD, not the only one.
Before JMM the jealous hater jumps to conclusions, let me make sure I understand the situation.
Someone from CJ, a company that makes its living using content it does NOT have legal rights to use, wants the guy who owns mentalshed to call him so they can discuss the rip off of CJ's design????
Do I have this right???
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
HYSTERICAL!

"a company that makes its living using content it does NOT have legal rights to use"
Check yourself there chief. Make sure you know what you're talking about.
CJ a company that posts stuff that bounces around the net and makes a HUGE effort (only site like that does) to NEVER post anyone's porn content. CJ, a company that has been doing business with every major player in this biz and has hundreds of happy customers making money off our traffic. CJ, a company that runs it's own program (www.cjbucks.com) and completely understands how detrimental stealing porn content is. CJ, a company that has a very simple policy: if we fuck up and post your content, we'll remove it IMMEDIATELY or gladly turn it into an ad and send you traffic for FREE. CJ, a company that has over 10,000,000 monthly surfers and delivers that traffic to this industry WITHOUT ripping people off, fucking anyone over, or any other shady shit.
Also, read my post. I wasn't bitching about content. I alluded to the fact that we have no right to complain about content. I was talking about design.
ALSO, I talked w/ this chuk guy. We made our peace. He's cool.Comment

Every time I think I have read the most ridiculously pathetic post, GFY comes through and someone beats it.
CJ said: CJ a company that posts stuff that bounces around the net and makes a HUGE effort (only site like that does) to NEVER post anyone's porn content.
Now, please explain to me what principle of law makes this legal.
Don't waste your time, there is none.

JMM, you go out of your way to post in every thread that is about us. Clearly you are on the front lines of the copyright wars and have a vested interest in speaking your voice and making it clear to the thousands of webmasters here what your opinion on the matter is.
The bottom line is we are not exactly going to shut the site down and call it a day. We've got a lucrative business here that continues to grow. You should be happy that we own it and not this chuck chump whom I would have eaten for lunch had I seen this before Marc. We realize and respect the fine line we walk every day and take every pain possible to make sure we cater to the adult industry as best we can.
As a content company you are best to watermark your images and DRM your videos so people like us know it is your content. Don't expect that you can change the file sharing nature of the Internet. You can't change the world on your own. What can be digitised can be shared for free. Its that simple.
So, stop picking fights with the one company who always listens to concerns and works with nearly everyone in the business. There are certainly better fights to pick out there. We can work with you or against you. It is your choice at this point. We can be a great friend or a excellent adversary.
As for the chuck chump, he's an idiot. I wonder what he would do if his site takes off and he faces the same ethical business decisions we face every 20 minutes?Regards,

Rick: You seem like an intelligent person. If you stepped back and read your post objectively, I think you would be able to see how ridiculous it is.
You seem to think because you listen to webmaster concerns and take pains to cater to the adult industry that it is ok for you to break the law? Fact: IT IS NOT. Fact: You are breaking the law.
You tell me that as a content company I should watermark my images and use DRM on videos, otherwise its fair game? RIDICULOUS. Federal law DOES NOT require that a copyright notice appear anywhere on the content. It is YOUR obligation to obtain legal rights or legal license to content BEFORE YOU USE IT. If you are unable to do so, the solution is simple, YOU DONT USE THE CONTENT, PERIOD. You put the burden on the IP owner, which is RIDICULOUS. The burden is yours Rick.
Your statement that what can be digitized can be shared goes against the EXACT principle of law that protects rights holders. You are breaking the law. You are using content that you do not have legal rights to use or distribute. The fact that you work with the industry and listen to it's concerns means nothing. The law is the law. This industry tolerates copyright infringers if they throw great parties or have great drugs, that is not news to anyone.
I will give you a clear example. I don't often appear in court on our cases. I did in the beginning because I was learning and curious. In 1998 I obtainted a $230,000 judgement against a website using our content. I was in court and I heard this with my own ears, so this is not second hand:
The lawyer for the defendant said to the judge: "your honor, none of the pictures contained any copyright notice or referring text whatsoever. My client could not have possibly known who the copyright holder was."
The judge responded: Mr. Davis, that is correct, there were no copyright notices or referring text on the images. Without exhaustive research your client could not have known who the copyright holder was. However, AT ALL TIMES, your client knew who the copyright holder was NOT, him.
Judgement for the plaintiff. We ended up settling for half. It was a good day.
See my point Rick. This is NOT the wild wild west. With the exception of some of the porn that is given to you to use LEGALLY, much of the content on CJ is owned by someone, and you do NOT have permission to use it.
That is copyright infringement. That is illegal. That is bullshit.Comment
