Damn, had I known this would have turned into WWIII I would have ran my errands tomorrow lol.

Ok, I’m reading over what everyone has had to say and I will try and address everything that has stuck out to me.

CraK I have every right in the world to notify his host or anyone else’s host that my content (which is 100% mine without question) is being used in a manner I say is illegal. Because if it became a issue of Lawyers being involved, I would bet you anything, that the first thing my lawyer would ask me is “Did I notify the host” and if I said “no” he would say do it and look in 24 hours, when I say “yes, and it’s still there” he would draw up the lawsuit and would name that host as well.

So nowadays, when I send a C&D I automatically send two at the same time, 1 to the person and 1 to the host.

And I do not know why his host shut him done, as I asked before but I do not see answered, did they just get ONE EMAIL from me, or is this the straw that broke the camels back? I would like to think I am so well known that one letter from me can take whole sites down, but somehow, looking past my ego, I don’t think that is possible or likely. I think there is much more to the story.

And from all the responses I have read Ramster nailed it 100%. I saw a URL I never seen in my stats, so I go look at it, get 3 Norton warnings and right off the bat I am pissed. I see my content; I click on 2 links with only1 going to my site, which is enough for me. I do not have to, or even need to give this person or anyone a warning. If I didn’t get the Norton pop ups would I have terminated his account? Odds are no I would not have, I would have told him no blind links, but I got virus crap so the deal was sealed.

You guys do not seem to realize, this isn’t some girl I paid to pose for me, so I couldn’t give a rats ass who thinks she is trying to scam them, this is my wife. I took the pictures, and together she and I spent almost 5 years of our life building KatVixen.com, it is **OUR** life, and **OUR** reputations on the line, when a surfer writes me telling me to fuck off because he got some virus from looking at pictures from my site, who is looking bad here? Someone taking short cuts that have nothing but a little time invested in this, or is it Toni and I when our WHOLE LIFE is involved in our site 24/7?

I also think it’s funny that a few of you say it’s my fault because I didn’t have “DO NOT DO THIS” posted. Do I also need to post “Do Not Shoot me with a gun” on every page? That is kind of like who was the dumbass that was the reason they have to put “DO NOT EAT” warning labels on rat poison.

Common Sense.
