Lamest case of search hit stealing ever.
I was house sitting for my dad and decided to check up on the latest e-cig news and so I typed in e-cigaretteforum.com. It looked different, but it's been a week so maybe the style got changed. At the bottom I noticed it was now an SMF forum instead of vBulletin. Again I thought, well people change software all the time. I can't count how many forums I've seen sites switch from phpBB to vBulletin. Then I started to look closer. All the categories were there (in mostly the same order) but there was like barely 1% of the posts. Every decent forum software in the world has a database import function from every other decent forum software.
Then I realized I'd been spoofed (more or less). Totally lame. That forum is lame too. This is almost bordering on copyright infringement. Just thought I'd rant.
