I just posted this in response to Sid's (sprudil) post pinging me, but
am reposting it under it's own subject line to bring more attention to
it.

In article sckDe.1465$%K2.187@pd7tw1no, says...
See what I mean about ASDLC posts appearing on tthe web forum look at your
weekly tips.

I see what you mean! They took my post and posted it as their OWN. Oh,
it has my name on it, but it says I'm posting as a "guest" and there is
no indication WHATSOEVER that it originates in ASDLC. It makes it
APPEAR that I posted directly to their forum and that I endorse and
participate in it, which is an outright LIE. THAT ****es me off.
That's like hijackware, which has been in the news lately whereby
advertisers basically STEAL space on a legitimate website and REPLACE
that website's ads with their OWN.

At the bottom of the forum page, since I have not joined their forum, it
says:

You cannot post new topics in this forum
You cannot reply to topics in this forum
You cannot edit your posts in this forum
You cannot delete your posts in this forum
You cannot vote in polls in this forum

Excuse me? They can take my words and post them there without my
permission and I have no say about it? I beg to differ.

I sent email to the anonymous " telling them
to remove my posts. After looking up the domain registration, I also
sent one directly to the domain owner (see below). Their site may or
may not be useful, but I have no wish to be affiliated with anything
that a) advertises, or b) uses such deceptive and underhanded tactics as
that. If they want to posts links or even post the entire posts with an
indication that it originated in ASDLC, that's one thing, but it's quite
another to post it under their own umbrella as if it originated THERE.

They aren't just showing our posts -- they are STEALING them.

The domain is registered to:
