no need to thank me, you have no reason to. I started this whole thing. Believe it or not, i'm not too bad at graphics and design, but my imagination for actually creating the structure of a site is terrible. I was just being retarded by posting it on web reviews. I shouldn't have even released it to the public until i was done with my own design. I was just desperate I guess, I don't have a reason why i put it on the site reviews though. And I was looking at the forum on 2checkout (that's what I use) and I saw the site there, and loved it.

hey Vsector
perhaps you should put some (c) copyright symbols flying around your old site like the new design for your ripped site has now...

Well..Congratulations are in order to everybody. That is the first site ripping I have seen here on WHT where the ripper has not been tarred and feathered. Well done to everybody for your restraint. And well done to the ripper for being so damn polite about the whole thing. And a special congratulations goes to the ripped for not threatening all sorts of legal nasties. Very humbling experience all round. Thumbs UP.

Now that the theft has been acknowledged, it is very low class to continue using it. You may not have been "tarred & feathered" but you will surely be branded -- and not in a nice way -- the longer you continue to use.
Why the true owner has not requested immediately removal, I don't know. I do know the longer it stays up, the easier it will be to remember "cirkuit.com" as a site to stay away from.
And ditch the "Unlimited", for your own sake. My God man, you don't even have a TOS or AUP and I've got a 40GB hard drive I've been looking to backup somewhere. On second thought, forget that. I'll be right over to signup!• PotentProducts.com - for all your Hosting needs

I do not believe this scumbag for one minute.
He says hes good at graphic design, when he cant even get his colours right, look at the images on the ripped site, he has saved them, decompressed the colour format, edited them, and compressed them again giving a different colour. He didnt even take 5 minutes to go round the page and make sure that the information was correct! Bloody copyrighted from 1997, haha.
I do not care for his sort of buttkissing appology, he was planning to keep that layout, and he and everyone else here knows it.
I do not believe he made the new design from scratch either, esp the button @ the bottom. lol... and that new design quite frankly sucks, and I laugh @ 'Yes - If it's any form of consolation Vsector - Its a nice site Anchovy might be a ripper but he has good taste'.
Just looking @ 'it was wrong and very unprofessional', what the hell? lol, the way you've acted, I wouldnt continue in the hosting business, you are in NO WAY professional & from what ive read so far from you, I very much doubt that you can look after your customers, let alone a server. Oh, and instead of your 'it was wrong' crap, try to think of it as illegal, because thats what it is. Heh, I know I wouldnt like a CRIMINAL looking after my files, lol, he'd probably steal it if it had any value.

Thats more like it WHT 'ers Don't let him get away...hanging is too good for folks like that. I am pleased you have all come through and shown your true spirit. It was all looking a bit lame before this onslaught. Keep it up. Great Job.

Yes, MC. I saw that, somehow, I dont know why, but this little snotbag managed to get everyone to be nice to him after his lies, heffer****, and sad, corny appolgies. I posted what I did, because thats what he deserves, im not being spiteful, he is a criminal, and not only is he a criminal, but he comes here, and steals our work, then rubs our noses in it!
Most people here who own a hosting company spend 24/7 thinking and working with there business (including me), and this little ****e comes along, and goes and ****s on it. I really cant believe people have mentioned the word 'nice' when reguarding him, no matter what it is. He is a little, unprofessional, dryminded shiester, he is no webhost, he is nothing but a criminal, and we could do without him on these boards.

rlynch - im glad people are looking at it the right way, after I butted in on the 'oh bless him, he has nice taste!'. I think he meant he was going to keep on using that stolen layout, until he has finished with the other site he is ripping, I mean, he is right there eh? a site cannot go without a design! lol. He is probably a script kiddy that hangs around in chatrooms all day, and download pornographic images to attempt to satisfy his sexual depravity.
I accept people who are learning how to design sites, and all that, to take peoples content, and mess around with it on a personal homepage or fanpage. And you may argue that he might be learning, but I do NOT accept ripping for use on business sites, lol, this guy was trying to make money from other peoples hard work, he is a theif, a scammer and a twofaced bastard... Maybe even threefaced!

Alright... believe what you want, but I really was sorry. Anyways, I know you may think I'm ripping the new site, but I can assure you II'm not. I deleted the old design about 2 days ago and I'm getting little by little done... When I said Unlimited, I was meaning Unmonitored btw...

lol... still lieing is he? saying he deleted it 2 days ago. Wrong, it was still up yesterday.
Anchovy, your a criminal, we do not want your appologies, they do not make what you've done any better, your only sorry that you got caught. We do not care for your 'new design', you should give up the idea of running a business... let alone a professional business. Owners of companies like the one you copied usually spend all their time on there business, you are a mindless idiot, you came along without any thought for others and stole peoples hard work.
You do not deserve to earn a cent, and I doubt you will, you seem to know little about the webhosting business, your 'new' design would look better on a pokemon/script kiddie website. Your a petty, thoughtless, idiotic theif, and we REALLY dont want to hear your ****ing 'I said sorry!' remarks. Trying to put us in the bad position, what the hell did you mean by 'Alright... believe what you want, but I really was sorry.' ?? did you mean that your not a criminal and we are wrong for calling you one? Do not try to make us feel sorry for you.
You should leave this site, and the hosting market, you will be remembered on this board as another mindless theif, and moreso then others, I cannot believe you posted your 'amazing website' on this site.
I think it is time someone should make a hall of shame for this site! anyone agree? I think people that come here should be able to see which sites they should and shouldnt be a part of. I really would not like to see this criminal with clients.
