Should I...

[MrCraig]

Hi.
I am currently in a dilema over whether or not to file a DMCA complaint against realhabbo.com.

I need your opinions whether
www.realhabbo.com/staff (http://www.realhabbo.com/staff)
and
www.demo.habbosoft.com (http://www.demo.habbosoft.com)

are similar just by accident or if the layout has been screenied and edited (although it seems to have been sliced the same way also :S)

Please post your comments related to this subject.

Regards
Craig.

it looks more like this http://hffm.co.uk/staff/

and theres not point. you can only file one if they have copied your layout exactly.

its a ugly login page, point being?

Hm, im just confused as there is alot of similarities between the two.
(I really cba suing them if its just innocently looking the same)

But do you think they have ripped it?

+ Hollywood, ty, but not helping.

Sueing them over a login page? Oh do be real please.

:| a mod is trying to start a flame war, thats a new one..

I am asking if i should, the point is that they look similar and i was asking you guys to see if they were similar enough to be classed as ripped.
Ive already said that i do not wish to sue them if its just a coincidence as i dont want to do a clubhabbo and copyright html tables.

So please do read the thread before posting.

I dont see the problem really mate. I doubt they have ripped. They may have taken an idea or two but its not a sueable offense.
But thats my opinion.

[MrCraig]

Alright Forge, thats why im asking for opinions :)

To be honest i think it would be a waste of time. Alot of logins have that "structure"

Waste of time, I have been reported to numerous sites with this login page.

It seems it was released with a version of Housekeeping.

No way could you file a DMCA over that sorry.

IMO You should cause I hate them two fansites ahaha.

But, it's not worth the time, I'd love to seem them go down though, HFFM was already 'spoken' to by Caleb, about the login copyright

Thanks Caleb :)

Thanks Simon :)

As i say i dont really want to pursue it if theres no chance of it going anywhere/if its not ripped at all.

I doubt we will pursue this unless anyone else has anything to add?

[today]

Yea, eve if you wanted to pursue this, it wont happen.

[MrCraig]

Thank you hollywood :)

I dont think i shall pursue this any further. +REP to all i can who helped :)
