they do say that when you have a parody site, you know youve made it:)

He did say:

-----
I am the owner/administrator of this site. I would like to welcome you to the opening of The Jedi Force. I have to point out from the start that I got alot of the ideas for the site from GJO, but just put it in my own layout. Well I hope that everyone has fun here, cause I know that I will!
-----

So, credit where credit is due, at least he doesnt deny it. But its wrong.

He also annoyed TGC I see

Copying the layout is one thing. Copying and paste text from board and website is another thing.

Oh well. :/

This happened once before you know. I guess people must really like the layout.

That's Lord Diablox (or whatever his name is) USED to be Plo Koon...

I see he is up to no good again. Trying to rip off GJO for the second time. :rolleyes:

Would this be the time to propose a board re-design here?

I kinda have mixed feelings about this. Part of me feels like GJO has been ripped off (copy right infringment, so to speak), but the other part of me says not to make such a big deal out of something so trivial.

Someone once told me you should pick and choose your fights wisely, or in the end, it would be you who would be hurt.

But, in either case, it should be brought to his attention, in a nice manner.
