Hi,
In treyn's post he posted this:

which is VERY VERY VERY SIMILAR TO THIS:

TREYN: DID YOU STEAL MY IDEA? I SHOULD HAVE COPYRIGHTED I WOULD HAVE MADE A FORTUNE!!!!!!!!!!
I was going to put comments in like yours but had to study too much.
Please answer my questions ASAP!
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
I don't think they're THAT much alike.
They aren't identical, but the similarities are striking. The main theme of the website is the same (minus the competitive value).
it's lame to be so snotty about it. he hardly ripped you off, and anyway it's just a webpage so who cares?
Well, you're not going to make anything off of it much less a fortune.
Besides your contest didn't get very far before everyone bailed.
Treyn, it's up to you to stick out this time! Go for it dude!
Ouch? Presumably in his one they are allowed to get trims - we couldn't. As a result we had messy messy hair with ridiculous styles which we were glad to rid ourselves of.
You should do it again, allowing trims to neaten your hair on occasion, and see who's grows the longest fastest! Of course, curly hair should be pulled straight to be fair during measuring.
Hehe, yeah, Yousuke cut his because using too much shampoo and Aaron's boss made him cut his (his boss paid for haircut and the money for me)
I sold my hair for ~US190 and aaron sold his for ~US120. Yousuke didn't keep his.
As for doing it again, they aren't interested. I haven't cut my hair since though :D
What, one of the places that make wigs for cancer victims? That's a really good thing they do.
How long was your hair? I didn't know they paid that much! Of course I'm too vain to give up my hair...I'm so superficial. LOL
You need to update the site with the results and new pics of your hair!
Locks for love? No... actually I sold it to someone on these boards.
It sold about 6 inches.
I used my high school's digital camera, but I graduated so there goes that deal. You sure post a lot on these boards!
I have long hair, and am a BIG fan of men with long hair. I don't have a job right now, besides children and breeding Betta splendens, so I just sit around watching TV, posting on boards, and taking care of my hair. I just moved back home last month, after being in Cleveland for 14 years.
Can't find any of my old friends...so far. Therefore, I have PLENTY of spare time. These boards are the best place to find intelligent conversation about the things I love!
"You sure post a lot on these boards!"
Whoa! You made that much for 6 inches?!?!? I just cut off about 9 inches and just threw it away b/c I figured it was worthless.
I think I got more party because it was "famous" hair, and the fact that I had a history of it growing, etc.
Hey, that's part of growing out your hair. Gotta stick it out through certain stages if you want it long.
I remember your proud announcement a few months back telling us all how you sold your hair and were glad to get rid of it and liked the money in your pocket. That's the kind of trials, stages and attitudes that we try to help guys through here.
...if your looking to grow long hair.
I'm sure there were a million sites before yours of guys all getting together and growing their hair. What's the big deal?
It isn't an original idea. Usually friends discuss things and decide to the same thing. My girlfriends and I always dressed alike, wore the same make-up, wore our hair the same, etc.
Perhaps this is true, however, I had not seen any of these sites before starting mine and had not seen any until this.
Treyn, on the other hand WOULD have seen mine, and got the idea from there. Some sort of recognition on the site would be nice.
I started my hair history site WAY before you did yours. You only did yours for a few months anyways.
OK, some comments/questions:
Why do you keep dying your hair? I LOVE the natural color best!!!
NEVER buzz your hair off again! 'Nuff said.
You keep cutting your hair off before it gets truly long. Why? Job related?
What gel do you use to get that "professional slicked back" look? You look like a SHARK like that! It's really sharp, and a great idea for men while their hair grows out!
Erm, the sites are NOT the same. What you have is an afterthought to post some of your pics on a website.
Mine (and now Treyn's) shows the development of TWO people's hair from a starting date as a type of competition/rivalry/comparison/whatever.
They aren't the same. When will Treyn reply? Probably never.
If I were him I wouldn't.
The entire topic is completely ridiculous.
I could show you my betta web site, which I started...2, maybe 2 1/2 years ago, and show you numerous others who look nearly identical. I don't care.
As long as their sites aren't taken VERBATUM from my site, and as long as they don't use pics of MY FISH without my permission, I'm fine with that. Take my background, which I took from a free graphics site. Take anything you like except my EXACT words and MY FISH pics...without my permission.
Growing hair, and groups of people growing hair, and building web sites about it is not new, it's not original. It may be FOR YOU and your selected friends, but it's not new. Just as betta breeding was new for me 2 years ago, but is a very old hobby. Get over it.
I bet I could do a web search and find thousands of web sites older than yours doing the same thing. I bet they're not complaining. They would rather congratulate you on your endevour than to condemn you for not being "original." You should be appauding him instead of trying to cut him down.
LONG HAIR FOREVER
1) Find them and post them here!
2) I made up the idea by myself, but it is CLEAR that TREYN STOLE THE IDEA from me. There is a difference. Two similar websites popping up coincidentally is TOTALLY different to what Treyn has done.
