Default Heads Up Guys

Hi guys just a quick heads up. Someone called JP on FM-Britain has found a site has been stealing is work and copy and pasting it to this website National Football League/I League (India) - LLM Forums. After having a little search through it myself I have found some work by you guys which you maybe interested in reading about, especially FED as I saw his 'how to get 7 stars on training' thread there. Anyway whatever use it is for you it is just a heads up from me.

I had this same problem at bOo.

They were copying everything from SI's official forums and passing it off as their own.

Including my stuff.

Unfortunatly I really don't think anything can be done about it unless it's been copywrited.

Matt, Greg, Rich and Chris, have they credited the makers for it? Because they may have permission from some of the people, but if they haven't credited or got permission, then I think the FMF Police need to investigate!!!!

TH according to JP on FM britain they have not credited any work but also when I looked I didn't see any naming or creditations for anyone so to me they are theiving the best of people's websites.

Bozza have a quiet word with their admin about it, if he refuses say some stuff about taking it to court, and at worst send over an army to spam them :p

why fight fire with fire?
we fight fire with water
find where their admin lives, take a hose and splash his computer to death

another alternative (like in player-art):
prevent people with less than 10-15 posts (or a certain amount of posts/month) from accessing the guides section

and can i be the honorary member of the fmf police

Guys I am the guilty person who did all the crime. Lets settle this issue. Please tell me what I need to do. I am more than willing to give the credit to the original author, however I don't know who the author is.
As a matter of fact I quoted the articles from sussie website and also found them on fmgamer website. So someone just tell me how can I assume that the original author was from FMF. Anyway I don't wat any wars so please PM me whoever wants the credit. I have no intention of giving the credit to myself. I just wanted to share the info with my clan :D.

so we finally know who the theif is. Obviously you need to through all of the guides that you stole and find out who the creator is and credit them on there hard work and not yours as you did'nt write them in the first place. When you see contact before redistribution on a guide it means contact the guide maker to get permission and not just rob the guide anyway :@

And another thing we dont need your sort coming over here and stealing guides that we have worked on. Basically what im saying is we are better of without user's like you, and as moderator of the guides forum im sure everyone will agree

rant over

Hmm I already said I din't take the content from here. In fact I came to know about this website from google analytics which showed backlink to my website. Anyway I will give the credit to the authors from Sussie forums from where I took the articles.

tbh i think any guides you have taken from here without permission should be deleted from your site straight away! this kind of behaviour is far out of order and we dont need it!
