Don't change your style. You often post things many of us think but don't write because we're too polite and don't want to make anyone uncomfortable or offend anyone.
I kind of miss being that guy sometimes

speak for yourself.
We'd probably get along better than you'd think. I'm 100% sure I could come to the challenge, have a great time, and no one would know it was me.
I found a Chinese copy of our company website, which is in the aerospace field. It was an entire copy, images and everything, other than the name and contact info. Lawyers and FBI shut that down pretty quick.
Does it help that when googling ecars4less that I found a Marietta Used Car lot that has the gmail account with the same phrase?...
Wait they have a guy named Cotton? Do we have a guy named Cotton? I'm jealous.
You know, the amount of effort people and companies will put in just to avoid have a real job never ceases to amaze me.
Did anyone stop to think that maybe we are the impostors?

Every morning when I wake up to go to work.
Well, at least I hope that I am.

Which website has the pointy looking gotee?
Wow. Reminds me of a video game website I used to frequent called "Giant Bomb" that once had a Russian copycat website called "Game Bomb" it ripped off the UI, the style of content, etc. but had its own original articles and videos. Very odd.
That's flippin' scary....
Waiting for this to become more mainstream and we have to start watching the url at the top when visiting amazon eBay or Facebook.
Does alternate-GRM-universe me have an equally stupid fleet of vehicles?

What would be the anti-version of your fleet?

Cease and desist letter going out from our trademark attorney, though I expect it to have zero effect because scam site with fake registered agent (I know, because I called and Street Viewed the available info). Just another time- and money-suck. The remoras are starting to eat more than their hosts.
Margie
On GrassROOT Motorsports.com I spent a reasonable amount of money for OEM parts for my Accord and then sold it for a profit. My wife really wants me to buy an old British car, but I'm going to put the money in the bank instead so the garage won't be so cluttered.
All I'm seeing is a 404 error now. Once Margie got involved they appear to have turned tail and run. Apparently they must have read some of the legitimate posts and understood who's really running this show.
I'm going to go ahead and lock this thread and remove the link in the first post. We don't need to increase their search rank.
Quick update here, everybody: After a Challenge car's worth of billable hours, the fake site is gone.
