Now some of you might have noticed that the ATZ has taken it upon themselves to try to match the greatness of The Crooked U by making a clan site of there own. And well, im here to point out a couple of differences
first off: How they made it
If you will, next time you are on one of the sites right click somewhere and click "view source...". You see all that coding? Thats HTML codeing, thats what makes up the site. Now, The ATZ took the easy way out, They just used the "Site Builder" which requires NO HTML codeing what so ever, anyone can do it. Now The Crooked U site is different. Our site is made the real way, with code. I write all the HTML code and all The php scripting on the site, Yes , i do it all, NOTHING on this site is made for us, I write all the code myself, not like them that just tells tripod what they want and let them make it for them.
Second off: poorly thought out
Now you may have noticed that the ATZ site has music playing in the backround. MP3's to be more specific. Now you may think they got one up one us there , but.......wrong. You see with tripod's free webhosting service they only provide so much bandwith. And MP3's are going to chew up that bandwith within the first couple people that visit the site. And when that happens tripod shuts down the site for awhile. Thats why we dont have any music or video on the site, becuase with all that bandwith being sucked up they site would always be down.
And finally Third Third off: Copyrights
Another reason we dont have any music on the site is for that reason, Copyrights. All the music and images, yes... even the images, are copyrighted. Now there are many different consequences for this. The most common one would probably be that tripod whold shut the site down. But it could up as far up as a lawsuit. Now I highly doubt a lawsuit would follow but you cant rule out the possibility.
So in the end it was a good attempt by the ATZ but.......... they shouldn't of even tried to match our greatness.
