Site ripping Neowin news articles


Recommended Posts

our site was 403'ed?

Ya some messenger story a while back got Microsoft ticked off so they called the server company and the site was 403ed. Or something like that.

I doubt the thought of neowin being asses will come acrossed his mind through the whole spamming thing.

If a group of people started spamming my guestbook I would certainly think of them as asses.

Ok as fun as spamming his guestbook is you must stop. For one the things hosted off of his servers, and if they get problems with the server (load, bandwidth etc) then they might come after Neowin. Secondly, that **** just gives us a bad name and makes us look bad.

Fun as it is, knock it off guys before Neowin gets a bad name for it's members, and an angry guestbook company after it.

Maybe not if they are pointing out how you stole their content. I would be thinking more about not letting people see the posts and wondering how many people at neowin know or something i dunno what im saying :(

But he already knows that he stole the articles. Plus Marshalus already contacted him about it.

Marshalus has contacted him.

He responded to the request within a few hours.

Marshalus thanked him for his help.

I honestly don't think he was trying to do us harm, or "steal" our content, he was just posting our news without sourcing, which we don't appreciate. As I said, a few hours after I contacted him via e-mail he removed the posts.
