How many times has someone stolen your concept?

I can name a couple just today.

This business is hilarious.

Cheers fuckers.

No choice in either situation. Just one of those things.

I never talk about what I'm doing. However, in both instances I had no choice.

It's ok, I can do it better.

Happened so fucking often . That's what got me sick of the tgp game after a while . As soon as I had something up, 2 hours later another site would copy it . I've seen my exact advertising on over 50 tgps after NOT ONE but TWO sponsors literally stole my advertising and gave it to affiliates .

My ratio went from 1:100 to 1:1000 in a month ... (minimum 20 signups a day ... MINIMUM)

Fuckers that I'l never promote again kept stealing my ads after I stoped promoting them

I can't think of anyone that has actually stolen my idea, as i keep my ideas to myself most of the time. But there have been a few times when somebody else has obviously come up with the same idea and just been quicker to implement it.

I already learned my lesson about that one.

I'm assuming you have too?

Some people get way too much respect around here wouldn't you say?

We'll see how it goes.

And for the thieving fucks everywhere...you will NEVER know everything I'm up to and there is no chance in hell you can compete.

In the spirit of not cracking your skull

Cheers.

Any and every good idea gets stolen, in every genre of business. Sponsors do it all the time. People copied Clickcash with their webcam sites. People copied Nastydollars and their sites, especially MILFHunter.

Best copycat of all time though...

Bill Gates copying Steve Jobs and what he was doing. That was elite.

Here's a question to all you guys who are 'worried' about getting 'ripped off'

If you do something online and it gets traffic and someone figures out how you do it just by either 1) looking at your marketing (haterz would say 'spam' but whatever) 2) reading about it 3) you tell them generally about it and they figure it out, then you have nothing to complain about.

That's how the net works. An idea, either implemented or just talked about, can be reverse engineered and independently researched.

NOW... if you were the ONLY guy who has exclusive rights to a source of traffic or implementation (ie., you bought ad space or you're one of the partners of the site) then you can LEGITIMATELY say you've been ripped.

But... if you're just one of the thousands of traffic fishermen who thought they found a secret spot... get over it, there's tons of webmasters out there looking for the same spot and have figured it out/or will figure it out soon.

You just sound like a spoiled rotten kid who's afraid to grow up and change.

Do you think the guy who invented google spoofing algorithms is HAPPY that there's many similar implementations out there? Probably not, but now he's making more money cuz he's copying his copiers' implementations.

what really sucks is when a sponsor takes the way you are sending traffic to them and implements it into their affilate program, or the sponsor starts buying traffic where you are buying traffic at to send to them
