To whoever runs this website now.

I thought I had seen it on here before!! HA!
You may be able to use the way back machine to prove it to them.

You should PM Chaud (their admin) at MMOC. And inform them of the situation. Tell them that someone is advertising on their site with stolen intellectual property. Otherwise it’s very possible you will get banned and the thread will be locked by the moderators.
MMOC’s quality of moderation has seen a steep decline in the last couple of years.
Good Luck!!!

Yep...
Got a ban one time for posting a thread title “Woman kills husband because he beat the pu**y”.

I quite literally put “pu**y” in the title. It could mean anything. It’s up to the reader to decide what the word is.

It was about this lady that killed her husband because he kicked/beat her pussycat.

Thread wasn’t against their “rules”. A moderator just decided to ban me for it. The thread was posted in the General Off topic section. That’s what it’s for. Off topic discussion. I wasn’t doing anything different than many other people. For some reason the moderation staff has singled myself and quite a few others out as “undesirables”.
Personally, I think their massive downhill spiral in forum quality is part of the reason why they were not chosen as the “go to” site for Classic by Blizzard and Icy Veins was.

At any rate, that’s not the topic here.
 
Update: I received a reply from MMO Champions. I'm OK with their continued use of the image. I'm pretty sure the staff here doesn't mind either.

As a Web dev I understand your reason to mention your own created stuff. And its your right! No one can just use your own creation without asking for permission. Even when you take an apple and bring a hat on it and take a picture of it. It's definitely yours. But what I don't really understand is your question "why are some admins calling themselves founders" . Well that's a good question and no one will ever know but you can't really comment on it since u have sold twinkinfo to them. To be honest I don't know about the true story of you and twinkinfo, but it seems to be classical > you sold it like 1000 "founders" already did. So you can't actually tell or ask them why they're doing this or this with badges. It's not anymore your site. (Don't wanna lie maybe u sold it for only 50%/I really don't know the true story about your leaving). But it's a fact that u transfered the ownership

I'm not questioning them for calling themselves founder, I wondered what qualified the badge. I got my answer privately and completely satisfied with the answer. I guess the question wasn't asked clear enough.

The amount I sold twinkinfo for was really quite low. I could have gotten more based on the traffic if the blog alone. I didn't really care though. I had just got done selling my tech site network for $250k. I never monetized twinkinfo. Never took donations, I ran ads for one month but didn't like it.

Were you the one who sold to Daman? Or was there another between you two?

Met him back in2011 in Virginia Beach but have since lost contact, would be great to reconnect if you have any solid contact info.

Yes, Daman Kirklin, was who I sold TI to.

Ok. Don't understand me wrong I'm not against you personally. I just questioned your reaction. Well sad that I didn't know the real twinkinfo founder. But hey this happens everyday in the real world as well. Given example: everyone knows who's mark zuckberg and co but not who's Tim Berners Lee. This is the same case with TI and you @Drayner

I’m an “artist” by profession. It’s no fun having your work used by others without your permission.
