The admin of Tech Arena has been notified. (CHEER)
A copy of the letter is below.
I have asked that the people of
www.computerhope.com not post on your boards complaints about copying.
Here’s a list of some of the posts copied.
A note before you read:
You can compare the dates on your forum compared to ours. Some of your posts may look like they were made first, however, they are not. We have had some major problems with our boards lately, and posts have been lost. Each time we restore our posts that were lost, the dates are set to the restore date, not the backup date.
Now for the list:
