jocker clusterf**k, damn. Options

[*tripvertigo*]

remember back in the day when we'd get a jocker once in a while, and everyone on cb would go to that person's xanga and just bash the shit out of them until they peed themselves and finally took the layout they jocked down? Or if they didnt take it down, we'd find a way to hack their account?

yeah those were the good days.

really made me feel loved. but i guess back then i was contributing a lot more to cb than I am now.


anyway, some of my best bashing insults came from those situations.


i remember this only really happened to really well known users on cb/xanga. i.e. me or roxanne, or rivendell...

the reason i bring this up now is because i google myself every couple of months to see what shows up, and this is what i found:

so f**king full of win.

Josh, the difference is when you use someone's code for programming, you are not going around saying, "I made this, it is my artistic venture" like one is when they jock something. You're just using it. And designers can USE other peoples' things too; they may look at the css and use it as a template for their own, or a guide if they are confused on something, but what that person did to Frankie's is different than that...it wasn't for efficiency. The person didn't know what to do and literally colored over Frankie's main image (you can see it on the left where they did) and put a different picture. Everything else is exactly the same. When designers make something like that and put it on their own site, it's a showcase. Yes I understand things like that happen when you put things on the internet, but it's really quite mean of someone to do, and most times people will simply ask the person to take it down. If they don't listen, that's when they get flamed. That's their own fault.
