Ripoff Website

 
Ripoff Website
I've seen some rip off web designs in my time but this takes the biscuit!
Not credited at all. Its kinda amusing and not funny at the same time.
I think they accidentally clicked on a link from the source that they stole which lead to my site - found the referrer in my logs.
For website owners - has anybody experienced the same?

Danny, sue him! He used Mirai-chan's designs! (Britannian King Voice) This is an outrage! Don't let his noobish hands sully Mirai-chan's pure image!

On a more serious note: He might turn around and accuse you of copying his designs. There are people as honour-less as that. 

Don't worry, we'll all be your witnesses and bury him under our combined attack: Wave Of Support!

He cant really turn the arguement around and say that Danny stole his design.

1. Mirai Suenaga is designed by Danny and illustrated by Azamiyuko.

Which means, that the "thief"/"noob" is up against 2 people.

and a ton of supporters!

You guys really think its easy to attack a web server? If you do, Think it more. >.>

Even though its a ripoff, i wont expect the web server is unprotected enough to go down due to simple DDOS attack.

Beside, theres always a legal way to solve any problems.

Think before u posts, don't make our country's name go bad. =/

Ok, ok, there is no need to argue about the difficulty of hacking into that site, what we need is to support anyone (skilled or not doesn't really matter) that is kind enough to contribute time and effort to attack that website.

This happened on the forum I moderate. In the deleted logs in our forum trash bin, there was an incident in the past where someone ripped off everything entirely; from the design straight down to the name (which was only slightly different). Suffice to say, the Admin took action and everything was solved by the end. You should contact the web host and tell them about it.
