    WTF? Bloody thieves!

    Why is it that everytime somebody wants to become a copycat of StatsRemote they also have to steal the text, color scheme and layout of our Website and software?

    Have a look at this:

    http://www.remote-stats.com/
    (very original name btw )

    and compare it to

    http://www.statsremote.com/

    The text on the front page is a blatant copy of our front page (almost word by word). They even use the same slogan and effects in their flash (Are you tired of checking all your stats manually?). And the system requirements and contact page are pretty much the same as well.

    The funny thing is that the only text on their site that has correct spelling and grammar is the text they stole from us

    In addition, they blatantly copied the layout and functionality of the software.

    And now the best... they support less than 30 sponsors and charge $15.99 per month!

    Just in case their site is gone when you read this here are the screenshots and source codes

          Yeah, I didn't even notice that...

          You think I should send an Email to AOL as well in addition to the emails that were sent to their host, cc processor and domain registrar?

                      It might take a while for them to receive a C&D... their whois info seems to be false...

                              SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

                                      It's the third time this happens to us but never this blatant.

                                      The bad thing in this case is that people might actually confuse Remote Stats with StatsRemote as the names are pretty similar.

                                      But actually I doubt it... once people see all the spelling and grammar mistakes they probably won't join anyway, so hopefully nobody will get ripped off...

                                                      No one tops Stas Remote.

                                                      Imitation is the highest form of flattery.

                                                      But that was a little too flattering.
                                                      SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

                                                          You didn't steal the layout and color scheme of our software as well as the descriptions of the column headers and total rows? Furthermore, most of the functionality and menu items of StatsRemote were copied and even large parts of the layout and text of our user guide.

                                                                                          You gotta be kidding me! Please don't tell me you're surprised that we took action.

                                                                                          I've never seen such blatant copying before. Why do you think Verotel suspended your account immediately? Do you think they would have suspended it within 24 hours if it hadn't been obvious that you copied almost everything from us.

                                                                                          Do you actually deny stealing from us?

                                                                                          And to answer your question... no, I'm not satisfied because I had to waste a couple of hours on this bs. I'm in Japan right now and I really have better things to do than dealing with stuff like this.
