AN OMG POST: DESIGN PLAGIARISM AT ITS BEST — VGHP.COM COPIES IGE.COM
OMG. Holy Mother of God. May the saints reset my addled brain and retrieve my fallen jaw.
I could only invoke a higher power when I saw this site that BLATANTLY copied IGE.com.
Compare the original old-timer to the upstart impostor by clicking on the images to see the larger versions.
First the top of the home page:
Then the footer:
Wonder what IGE has to say about this?
And who the hell is VGHP.com?
Thanks to juniperberry for bringing this to my attention.

FTW?
These guys from VGHP might have thought that they can fool people with the IGE-based homepage.
Well.. THEY CAN’T!!
This proves that IGE is STILL the best site when it comes to MMORPG needs.
‘Nuff said.

I entered their website to check if they were also affiliated with IGE and I didn’t even know their Customer Support is so polite (sarcastic).
Welcome raged! Your request has been directed to the http://www.vghp.com department. Please wait for our operator to answer your call.
Call accepted by operator CS-Lily. Currently in room: CS-Lily.
CS-Lily:
Hello, may I help you today?
raged:
Hi Lily!
raged:
I am just wondering, are you related to ige?
CS-Lily:
wats the problem?
raged:
Oohh nothing really, was just wondering if you guys are related to ige because your websites lay out is almost the same as theirs
raged:
are you?
raged:
I just wanted to know before I start buying from you
CS-Lily:
do u trust me or trust ige?
raged:
lol
raged:
it’s not about trust Lily
raged:
It’s about originality
CS-Lily:
and then
raged:
ohh nothing
CS-Lily:
which game do u want to buy?
raged:
anyways, I can’t really buy from a company that’s copying other websites’ lay out to lure other companies’ customers…
raged:
anyways thanks
Siiiiigh… I’m guessing they don’t have a lot of customers that they are trying to trick even IGE’s customers.

From the looks of your correspondences, that CS Lily is one SOB a$$hole because of the way she (or he? who knows.) treats a customer.
Astaroth, Prince of Hell on 10 Oct 2008 at 2:22 am #
HELLO!!!
You gotta be kidding me!!!! I didn’t know that websites have the ability to clone themselves or even morph and copy any website they want!!!
BE MORE ORIGINAL YOU @$#@$$^$^@$%$!!!!!!!

CS-Lily:

Min Jeongho:
[CS-Lily: what are you doing] Uhm… answering me with another question? Hah… doesn’t make sense to me… Anyway, I have a few questions to ask…
Min Jeongho:
I’ve just been from your Web site, and it looks like it’s from IGE…
Min Jeongho:
How related is your company with IGE?
CS-Lily:
no
CS-Lily:
we are different
Min Jeongho:
OK… but why does your page look like IGE? Isn’t that plagiarism?
Min Jeongho:
Just a piece of advice: You guys could be in boiling water for you Web design…
CS-Lily:
lol
CS-Lily:
u know ige?
Min Jeongho:
Hmm… not much, but I’ve been through their Web site, and upon landing at your site, I see a lot of similarities…
Min Jeongho:
Are you sure you’re not copying IGE? Because your header looks exactly the same…
Min Jeongho:
See, it confuses us customers… You know what I’m saying?
Min Jeongho:
How about you? Do you know what IGE is?
CS-Lily:

Min, thanks for sharing your interesting albeit terrible experience. VGHP is run by careless retards. Stay away from them.
Peace!

Wow dummy… You use a premade theme too!
Copyright © 2009 WoW Gold Facts. WordPress Theme based on a design by Free CSS Templates
Learn the industry, or keep your nose out of it?
You use a premade Blog/CMS system, you use a premade theme for it, you even use others work to create your site. Have you ever done anything that is 100% you?
Your either to ignorant to create something of your own, or to broke to afford something quality that doesn’t brand it’self.
Extreme Gold Fan on 08 Sep 2009 at 1:44 am #
Look, Nemesis, you dumbass, a premade theme is free for anyone to use. At least I’m not stealing someone else’s design. Look at how VGHP is shamelessly using IGE’s banner. You have a nice life and go back to playing on your private server. Loser. You’re a gnome aren’t you? /punt
Lestat de Lioncourt on 08 Sep 2009 at 5:01 am #
LOL @ Nemesis. That’s out of the topic, dude. Learn the industry? What’s to learn on a free theme when it is available to everyone who has interweb? If you are referring to the IGE - VGHP comparison, it’s a different story.
Please, Nemesis. If you wanna start a debate, try to learn and analyze your point first, pea brain.
