Thanks man, yeah and my lawyer in LA sent them a letter back after their C&D calling their claim "baseless"

They were whining, and bitching because I was getting SE traffic from their terms like "FML sex" "fml sex stories" etc.

Seems they can't handle a little competition. Heh.

what about this?

The fact is just that the website (FMSL) is an entire copy of FML.

I love the source code in French. I'm sure the guy behind fmysex.com understand it ;)

(french because the first website was viedemerde.fr then turned into the english version FML, so the same code)

They merely replicated it, it's not hard to write that script, it's pretty basic functionality. And you cannot copyright a concept and they have no patent on anything.

Can you actually send a DMCA based on a concept that is not patented?

It's not TV

why would they stupidly use all the same names for classes, etc... could have just as easily been just a little discrete

that kind of laziness certainly can't help in a legal situation

Actually they didn't send the DMCA till the beginning of 2010 I think. I've been really busy with other things and finally re-connected with a developer friend of mine who is ready to work on it. We'll be developing it further and re-designing the site.

Already got a new one. But I can't blame my old host, it was a DMCA, and they are required to remove the content after 48 hrs, without a counter-notice.
