Last straw here. I have got to research how to stop hotlinkers and will implement it as soon as I figure out how, so by the time you see this it might be blocked.

Also, please don't send this guy hate mail - yet. I have notified him via email and let's see what happens.

Grr. The time and effort I devote to a web design (80+ hours, easy) and I get this...

WOW! I'm torn between laughing and crying while trying to decide if it is just ignorance or total disregard of someone else's intellectual property.

From the content it looks like a 12-year-old operating out of his bedroom, with delusions of grandeur. <_<

Having your hard work "borrowed" is never a warm fuzzy feeling.

Turned off hotlinking. Yay! Bandwidth saved: not much, considering the site probably had 2 total hits, but it's the principle of the thing.

I'm guessing this is a new redirect from the original site?

It's a good thing our beloved Bolty isn't vindictive. I might have slashdotted the little E$%^.

Go back to the main page, www.lurkerlounge.com. Now picture it hijacked. By a bunch of 12 year olds. Who modified the site with horrible content. And now you have the picture of the culprit (as well as an idiot).

Sigh. Happy that one is over. Goodjob Bolty

Cheers,

Munk

I thought about PMing this, but it might be nice if everybody got a look.

How do you find things like this, Bolty? Do you Google the Lounge on a regular basis? Or do Lurkers find things and tell you about them?
UPDATE: Spamblaster.

I received a tip off from a shall-remain-anonymous source. I have no idea how people find these things, but occasionally I'll get emails from people telling me about rip-off sites.

Considering he copied the code *verbatim*, not even changing the meta-tags that listed the site description as "The Lurker Lounge", it must have shown up somewhere.

Anyhow, a further update - the author claims to be a 13-year old who apparently just doesn't know any better. I've encouraged him to start a budding webmaster career by learning as I did - by coding one's own site and learning by doing.
