Digging up the past - Again

Looking 4 Kin links were really lifted Yes.

I have had 9 emails this past week from people, and 2 people in the chatroom (Please be aware this is not to be discussed in the chatroom) who don't believe that this group would do this sort of thing. Please give your head a shake to clear your thoughts then read on. And please do read it all.

They, Jim and Rosey, have since changed the pages somewhat and removed the Looking 4 Kin name out of their html (but he has since registered looking4kin.co.uk in an effort to cover up and ride our our name). If you do a lot of digging and looking around their site you will find a couple dozen links that still contain our affiliate numbers.

For those unbelievers you will see that our Looking 4 Kin site was lifted and has been revamped somewhat please go to Internet Archives ads view the sources of the web page.

To view the source you right click on the webpage and then click on View Sources and there it is in the pop up window - the code.

Do some digging around and you will find several pages with my code on it just changed a wee bit but on THIS ONE is the absolute proof.

Haha the silly couple forgot to remove Looking 4 Kin from their code (maybe this is why they felt they had to register a Looking 4 Kin name but this is way before they registered their name).

Do you see it meta name="Author" content="Looking 4 Kin Genealogy Links and Chat

Some other pages are

Page 1

Page 2

Page 3

Page 4

When you are all done reading and looking for yourself you can always re read Jim Gentracer's comments where he admits to doing this. http://looking4kin.blogspot.com/2009/06/code.html

I have saved all the code from every page on their site before they removed it something else that is in all my keywords is Worldwide with a capital W in an odd spot and genealogy spelt geneology, in the exact same spot and order as where I have it. In the links themselves there are many links that have my associate id info for different sites.

Do some digging on your own and if you feel they did the right thing then by all means support their site - If not then support ours.

What took years in the making of this site was copied, pasted and placed on the other site in a matter of days where they claim all of our hard work as Jim's and Rosey's Links on the main page of their site. And Jim (who claims to be a Professional Genealogist - not very professional if you ask me to steal someone elses work) and Rosey (Yes the Rosey from Northern Ireland who pretended to be our friend in Looking 4 Kin) your links looked great - just sad how they came about. Proud of all your hard work I hope. It took a lot to lift all those pages but it took us 9 years to build Looking 4 Kin. I hope you are proud that you took from a child what she helps with and will take over once I am departed.

Rosey you may try and claim that you had no part in this to those who respected you but what is this http://rosemaryharper.co.uk/links/linksmenu.htm ? And remove it if you wish as it has been saved.

If you agree with their actions by all means support their site if not please support ours and help ours grow and become busier.
