is it really the sincerest form of flattery? i was looking at some sites posted today, and had to laugh at a couple of things (that may or may not have to do with some of my sites).

what do you think?

If it's a bad imitation then it's just flatering, but if it's a complete ripoff i get mad...but still, there really is no reason to get mad since in most cases you can't do shit...just sit back and enjoy the ride...

I will be the 1st to admit, you gave me the idea for one of my sites.. but I dont think it can be even compared or described in anyway close to yours..

copying your ideas is one thing.... but stealing is another... if someone steals your artwork/code etc then u should do everything to protect your ownership

and what were you doing back then? look at any site at that time. they'll all generate a few laughs.

you look out the window and see somebody walking out your vacationing neighbor's house with his property..................you do nothing because you don't want to be a 'rat'.

sorry, you're the rat in that case.
