Ah thanks!
I have to remind him.

I emailed Roe, and asked him to either remove the list from the server or modify it so credit is given to us.

I looked over the site, and I didn't see any direct links to it. So maybe the search engines are finding and listing it, and that's how the folks over at toyotanation found it?

Well I think this has been handled on every front. Good work guys!

BTW Scarrell is the friend of the owner of realm of excursion

The list on Realm, has been updated and changed to show that it was created here :) Roe apologized for the list not reflecting Car Audio Central, and changed it right away.

Thanks MrSo0h0o the other list to our attention.

Hello everyone. I'm the owner of Realm of Excursion. I just want to personally apologize to the entire forum about the mishap. There was no intention to violate your copy rights. I assumed that the list submitted was created by the person who submitted it. I was informed by KikiTheCat and Scarell about the situation and I removed the direct link from the Car Audio 911 section. However, I did forget to delete the actual HTML file from the server. I was notified by Chris, one of you moderators, and updated me about the situation. To solve the situation, I updated the credit name to "KikiTheCat & Car Audio Central". There is no direct link on the Car Audio 911 page but if you guys would like to have it appear let me know.

Once again, I want to apologize for any harm caused. The site is definitely not aimed to steel peoples work. I had this problem before with videos submitted and I have been able to control it now. I will take the same initiative with the tutorials that are submitted to the site.

Thanks
Shon

hey, yeah i let Kiki know about it, Shon, would in no way shape or form steal our CAC list purposely.. a guy that goes to ROE "copied/pasted" some of the list and switched some stuff around and then posted it in a section on the 911 part of ROE.. Shon wont even take a vid unless its from the owner, he has also dealt with copy written laws and people stealing vids from sites and posting as their own and such... but once again, he wouldnt take it and claim as his own, he is a good guy... and sure we all have our differences to what should be on the list, where it should go..etc... but it gives new people to car audio an idea, and well what matters is if we personally like this and that brand.

Ya, after talking to Roe by email I got the impression that he wasn't trying to steal anything or pass it off as his.
He was very quick to fix the problem, so all is good :)

hey, I finally get to use 'this thread has been resolved' feature !!!
