    Benn;

    That is GREAT. I get ssOOO tired of people taking other peoples stuff and calling it anything more or less than what it is — theft.

    Theft is Theft – all perpetrators should be punished.

    Whoops! I’ve been sitting on a few posts now, had I known I could potentially take the rest of the year off, I would have published them sooner! That kind of payout in court should easily take care of some good DMCA lawyers.

    Well, I tell you what… I’ll make a deal with the cattle rustler and write for half of that, if they want to call me directly 🙂 No, on second thought I’d rather Benn give us the link and let us spend a little time writing a few comments on the other blog. Well, is it really a blog if they are swiping content from somewhere else?

    Honestly, why do people insist on doing this stuff? Most of us would be honored to be asked to contribute to a well respected or well intended blog. Not, however, to one that has just got busted and is now $700,000 in debt!

    Matthew – I want the $17,500 you’re leaving on the table
    Benn – Lets get everyone together and go over to their house and steal the front door –

    They copied all they could follow
    but they couldn’t copy my mind
    so I left them sweating and stealing
    a year and a half behind.

    I’m sorry to hear that this has happened to you, as someone who has dealt with over 600 cases of plagiarism, I understand well the emotions involved.

    I just wanted to extend an offer to help. If you want, email me the link or links involved and I’ll see what your options are. Most of these cases are trivial to solve, usually just a matter of reaching out to the host in the correct way.

    I’ll help in any way that I can. Just let me know what I can do.

    No matter what you decide, best of luck with this, I hope it works out for the best.
