This isn't meant to cause unecessary drama... this is a serious accusation and it got me boiled to the point where I want it to be exposed!!
Since I don't post much, I'm Rick M (formerly RickYNOT), founder and owner of The Best Porn:
http://www.thebestporn.com/ ... I've advertised on CJ (with Womak) in the past, and have done a lot of domain business with Latona in the past. Hell, I even attended one of the "Dollars.com" demos because I respected Latona so much.
Recently I visited your new review site PornSavvy.com, which was posted/linked from CJ. I found a few similarities to our site (pros/cons text format, review highlight text format, site facts with same format, etc). We've been imitated by many other review sites, and usually I don't say anything. I even would have exchanged links, and never said a word. I don't worry about little stuff.
However, today I found other more blatant copyright infringement. I'll post screen captures if I need to, but I'll let the initial GFY crowd see for themself:
1. Stolen Avatars

-
http://www.pornsavvy.com/review.php?reviews_id=218 (Scroll to 1st review, Vanessa's icon is from our site)
*I noted that in the image url your icons are "temp", but bottom line is it's still copyright infringement.
2. Same Profiles
-
http://vanessa.thebestporn.com/ (our site)

3. Text Copy

I'll let the GFY audience judge how bad this is...
I never wanted to rain on your parade of the new review site, and honestly I was looking forward to the launch. I'm good friends with a lot of other review site owners, and enjoy the friendly competition. I'm pretty upset by what I've seen so far, but I'll hold any other judgements until I hear from you. Please post your response.
