Ok I guess there is no drama category but just a few moments ago I received an email about 2 blog comments on my website which is still under construction. Which my thought was, ok weird? It’s a test blog post but as I read this:
1)
Author : total rip off
E-mail : [email protected]
URL : http://CheapTricks
Comment:
Your site has such horrible rip-offs of CSS-Tricks. Including this comment form and your crappy rotating asterisk logo.
2)
Author : Chris Coyier
E-mail : [email protected]
URL : https://css-tricks.com
Comment:
Give me my site back!
I sort of laughed because, I am not trying to recreate Chris’ website by any means. If I wanted to copy someone and hide it, do you think I would have Chris’ face and link on my footer for someone that I enjoy who has the same interest as me? Probably not. Would I be a participating member in this online community, no. Would I be so dumb to try to rip off a known person like Chris, no. My asterisk is different in many ways. I mean, know what you’re saying before posting idiotic comments on other people’s websites.
If you were smart, you might have done a 20 second research to find that [email protected] isn’t @ChrisCoyier ‘s email. You might also realize these are your stats:
IP address: 76.79.44.2
Unique ID: 9168847193984833535
Language: English
Location: Lincoln, NE, USA
Operating system: Mac OS X
Web browser: Google Chrome 8.0
Resolution: 1440x900
Javascript: Enabled
Both amusing and deranged at the same time . . .
seriously? That’s a little dumb… There are people out there who can do mean things with only an IP address too… lol
Well obviously it wasn’t me. People can be dinks, especially on the internet.
I don’t think I can spot a single similarity, definitely a troll.
I dunno – this Chris can be a little protective sometimes and is known for his irrational behaviour, plus he is wanted in all but 3 states…
On a more serious note
This is just daft, please don’t post rubbish on other peoples sites – especially in the names of other people.
