Rich S Posted November 30, 2007 Report Posted November 30, 2007 There is an unauthorized mirror site of my entire website in Korea at: http://nihontoken.com No attempt to claim it as their site or original material, just a full mirror site (but not with my updates). Very strange. Rich S Quote
Rich T Posted November 30, 2007 Report Posted November 30, 2007 you are still credited with copyright Rich, at least they are not trying to steel it. Maybe they are the great Bandwidth Fairies that mysteriously offer back lost kb's of data and space. Rich Quote
John A Stuart Posted November 30, 2007 Report Posted November 30, 2007 An high compliment really. John Quote
Rich S Posted November 30, 2007 Author Report Posted November 30, 2007 Yeah, use it - saves my bandwidth :-) Of course it's missing my latest updates (what few I've done). Rich S Quote
Brian Posted November 30, 2007 Report Posted November 30, 2007 Rich, Just to make this a bit more interesting and confusing... The person who registered that site (you have already looked it up) is the same one that owns http://www.jp-sword.com This is the website of our friend Jinsoo Kim, but he has only popped in here twice to say he is putting up his website again, and then disappears. Some have had a few doubts it is Jinsoo, but being in Korea it is likely him. So at least you know who it probably is Brian Quote
sencho Posted December 13, 2007 Report Posted December 13, 2007 Not quite a mirror, but lots of your stuff, Dr. S....!!!! http://www.cordens.be/Japan/katana.htm cheers Quote
remzy Posted December 13, 2007 Report Posted December 13, 2007 I know it must be annoying to have people use your pictures without conscent but in the end, if this serve to inform someone and prevent him from ruining an antique nihonto... Quote
Rich T Posted December 13, 2007 Report Posted December 13, 2007 Not quite a mirror, but lots of your stuff, Dr. S....!!!! http://www.cordens.be/Japan/katana.htm cheers Boy, that one is plagiarist city, they have taken from Rich, me, Goerge's pictures. Still, getting this information out in so many languages is tough. I do get asked from time to time if people may use my material and I have not issues with that, as long as they are not trying to make a buck from it. Rich Quote
Brian Posted December 14, 2007 Report Posted December 14, 2007 Well..they do say that imitation is the best form of flattery Would be nice if they credited each section with the original site though. Brian Quote
