I'm not sure if can PM or not. If you can, PM him. If not, tell me what you want to say, and I'll forward the message to him. Also, I did repost the gist of the message. I didn't repost the long fancy shmancy version because I already posted it once :(

Contrary to punqsux being the mature people I was talking about it, that is an example of the immature people I was talking about. Why is the world filled with idiots?
 
Because you quoted my post before I got a chance to clarify. I was typing so fast that I didn't realize what I had typed made no sense. Your response of "what" supported that fact. That's all.

Yea sorry about that Punqsux. I didn't realize there was a problem with that until just now. I only got through the first page of the thread before TripleT went on the "offensive." :twisted:

Its such an asshole thing to do, especially considering they didn't even give me a way to contact the webmaster or b.a.

I do appreciate you offering to forward a message to him from me, but Id rather do it myself. I just need an email or something.

It's not so much that this guy's doing anything wrong, it's the fact that he's coming across like there's no problem and we should all get along, and that if we can't see that, we're immature. WRONG. There's a big fucking problem here, and no "olive branching" is going to fix it or make it any more acceptable.
 
[quote name='daphatty']You forgot to tell them the part about it being posted in all but one forum.[/quote]

I didn't check, but looking through the site now it appears as though CAGs have posted more "hate" messages, if you will, than their users have posted deals. It's really quite excessive, but then again they did steal the tagline, and that's just dirty pool, so this guy pretty much has asked for everything he's getting.

I'll ask him and let you know.

As for the people thinking I'm doing something wrong, think whatever you want, I honestly could care less. Perhaps I should take the more common CAG approach I seem to be finding.

Glad I have your permission. Why don't you take the approach of leaving? You're clearly not wanted here, and your pathetic attempt to act as a liason to the VGT end of things only makes you look like one of the douchebags.

Nevermind. You won't be here long enough to leave voluntarily.

Yep, way out of line after all the trash talk was spit at me.
 
Here's the post I made at VGtalk, under the name shaq-fuVGtalk.

Don't take my username to heart, it was written in an angrier time. Laughing

Anyway, the problem with this whole thing is, these websites are quite obviously similar, correct? They do the same thing and now, *SOMEHOW* they have a very similar name. This leads to what is referred to in the consumer world as brand confusion. This is often made a court case. When one company makes something, like CheapAssGamer.com, and they have a large community of users, they have a certain amount of notoriety. When another company makes a startlingly similar product, or website, in this case, it may lead to confusion in the marketplace, including some believing these obvious copycat sites (let's be serious a minute, they are obviously meant to be similar to the original cheapassgamer.com) are affiliated with CheapAssGamer.com.

The consumer may wish to contribute to the website, thinking they are contributing to cheapy, and actually they aren't. Another problem is, if something should happen at one of the copycats that leads to consumer dissatisfaction, it will reflect poorly on the in actuality unaffiliated Cheap Ass Gamer.

For those obvious reasons, this is wrong. I hope that your admin will try to be an adult and change the names of the websites. I am not kidding when I say Cheapy would have a strong case in any court (though I doubt he'd take it that far).

That's my piece, and again, while I am biased, this was a well thought out post and the opinion within it is valid, regardless of the username.

If you wish to contact me, PM me at CheapAssGamer, my name is johnham.

Thanks,

-John

I don't think any of our CAGers should be posting over there, period. It artificially inflates their userbase and makes it look like they have more population and activity than they actually do. Boycott their site, spread the word, make sure no one buys shit through any of their affiliate links.

So you're saying that even though I had nothing to do with creating any of those sites, I am stupid for coming over here? :roll:

daphatty, you espescially should not be pulling stuff like that. You're a moderator here and therefore you represent our community. Don't make us look like crazy jerks. Besides, just threaten to ban someone and then make them do it for you! :D

For a start, I'd sure as hell make it a sticky, if not a front page disclaimer that CAG is not associated with any of those copycat websites.
