Apparently that one 'slipped through the net'. Interestingly, posts from other forums
http://www.bjexpat.com
http://www.alloexpat.com
http://treehouse.ofb.net
also slipped through the net. About ready to give up on this one, if they're determined to keep
doing it there isn't really very much I can do.

Seems to be down again. Strange.

I'll be charitable and assume they are busy fixing the problem.

HA!

Roddy, thanks for pointing this out to me, though I do tend to agree with the sentiment:

Many things in China are copied, from the DVDs one can purchase on the street to the furniture in
bars. People used to come into our bar and measure our furniture. It's not the first time that
I've noticed a site copying The Treehouse.

Their forums also seem to behind a registration wall at the moment, which (for now) minimizes the
effect.

I've been told that the 'Ask China' section is just shut down. If and when it'll reopen I don't
know. Meanwhile, what size is your chair?

Quest -

Does anyone have a test account for that site?










roddy -

This gets funnier and funnier. Linese.com have been ripping off posts from the forum - dropped
them a line, no response, not going to worry about it. And now . . . this. List of forums look
familiar to anyone? Perhaps if you look around you may find a post or two that looks familiar too
. . .

This guy appears to have paid for the VB software - costs about $100 a year, copied the forums' .
. . forums. . . and then copied and pasted in a bunch of posts.

Fortunately the administrator has made his skype details public, so I will be able to discuss this
misunderstanding with him later.

Roddy, this post http://www.mandarinlearner.com/showthread.php?t=28

seems to be a copy of one about the CTEST from chinese-forums - that heifeng posted it. It is the
same!

Heifeng is now called Jesse!










roddy -

Yeah, most of the content - the good stuff anyway - is 'borrowed' from here. They seem to have
given up though, so I'm not going to bother chasing it.

What! the nerve of it all! what kind of 黑道 name is Jesse!!! They couldn't even have copied and
used a cool web name....at least they didn't rip off my polar bear, that would have meant war!
