Wow, I thought my guide was pretty okay, but someone goes and plagiarizes it =O

Because people have to pay to see these guides, don't you guys have some type of copyright to all submitted guides or something? Take a look, almost word for word to my guide >.>

I'm not to bad over the fact it got plagiarized, but thought you guys should know.

That's not good. Most of those guides were taken from this site. I'm letting Admin know right now.

After the Admin looks into it, he gets to deal with the laywers. I get to sit and watch him get pissed :)

Lol, So is what I did a good or bad thing o.o;?

BTW, the guy posted his name on the copied/pasted site, chance sare he used the same name on this site, probably would make things easy when hunting him down and slaughtering him with the ban stick, no?
