My name is Ed Rooney and I own and operate www.Inb0x.com. The plaigarism that took place on the part of one of my writers is not acceptable either for my clients or for myself. With that in mind I have issued an apology directly to both Brandon and Alex and now to the community here as a whole.
I do feel it is important, however, that I make it known that this is not how I run my business. Inb0x.com has enjoyed enormous growth and positive feedback and has built a rock-solid reputation for customer service and quality forum posting. Unfortunately this can be ruined by the actions of a single rogue writer.
As Brandon said himself - one of the problems when you hire someone to do a job is you cannot stand over their shoulder and control every move they make. I have over 200 writers working for me and we have accomplished over 30,000 forum posts to date without plaigarism ever being an issue. I am working to get at the name of the poster who plaigarised and will promptly remove them from my service.
It has truly been an unfortunate and uncomfortable situation and I have taken all the steps I can to rectify the problem. I have refunded Brandon of course and am working to discover who the writer was. Because Brandon deleted his forum I cannot verify who was at fault. If any member of this community knows without doubt the username who plaigarised please contact me directly at admin@inb0x.com.
The writers who were assigned to Brandon's forum were:
Melos
Chameleon
Whirling Dervish
felice206
Slashmire
OneofaKind
I would appreciate any help you could give me in determining who was at fault so I may prevent further damage by this writer to my hard-earned reputation.
Lastly I would like to mention that hiring Inb0x has never resulted in this type of situation before and anyone considering using a paid forum posting service can remain confident that Inb0x is run with dedication to quality posting and customer service and this was a one-time incident involving a bad apple.
I offer this community, Alex and Brandon my public apology and commitment to get to the bottom of this.
Respectfully,
Ed Rooney

What do I find? An excerpt of the former Abstractfonts forum. Messed up a bit and fancy user names but exactly the same posts. I find Liana (l-goldenquill). I find Tørnquist (nicknamed by me as the Viking and occasionally as Tweetybird). I find whole discussions between the three of us. Yet posts by the same person under different names.
So, I wonder; what is this?? So I ask: Alex, what is this urbanfonts forum thing?
The Alex in this question is Alex the webmaster of Abstractfonts.com. Is Alex who buried the old forum. Is Alex Chum.., Mississauga.
So, Alex, I ask again, why is there a forum on urbanfonts.com that is a messed-up copy of a part of this (Abstractfonts) forum?
Compare these:
http://www.abstractfonts.com/forum/thread/30995/7091#post7091
and
http://www.urbanfonts.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3 (ignore the first two posts in this thread). and jump to http://www.urbanfonts.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3&page=2
At the urbanfonts forum
'barrelt' aka 'byson' is hitesh.mehta.
'bullish' [how appropriate] aka 'chris' aka 'dodo' aka 'fox' is me, koeiekat.
'devon' aka 'falcon' aka 'ivan' is l_goldenquill [liana].
'gilman' is Tørnquist [the 'ø' never showed on Abstractfonts, remember the discussion about that?].[/quote]
This is Ed from Inb0x and I am trying to get to the bottom of this as I have writers working for me who have been implicated in plaigarism, but there is no longer a forum at Urban Fonts for me to locate the writers in question.
Can you tell me what usernames were posting the stolen content? I am confused by your post - was 'barrelt' and 'bullish' and 'devon' the usernames? If so these are not my writers at all.
The users I had working on Urban Fonts were:
Melos
Chameleon
Whirling Dervish
felice206
Slashmire
OneofaKind
I'm sorry to be beating a dead horse, but when my business reputation is on the line I need to get to the bottom of the problem. We have done over 30,000 posts and never been accused of plaigarism.
If you can help me I would greatly appreciate it.
