Hmmm... what if Danny was getting information from this thread by having a member of SSC tell him whats going on? I doubt it, but it could happen.
Was this guy seriously THAT desperate for money he's trying so hard to sell our instructions which are here for members for free? Was there seriously NOTHING else he could sell?

I'm not done building yet.

He's been at it for while. Every time I go buy knex I see his crap for "sale". People could always water mark their new guides with sscoaster.com right, smack across the center.

I think the watermark idea is a good one
we should replace all the photos with watermarks saying 'SSCoasters', he might already have copies, but anything new will get sorted..

All new tutorials are published under the Creative Common's BY-NC-SA license.

Mainly the NC one is important on that matter, it states that it may not be used for commercial purposes.

For one of them, the current bid is at $13.49, and it appears he's sold 12 of them so far. Wow. I wonder what makes him so determined to sell our ideas? I mean after the many attempts we've made to stop him, he still does it anyway. What's his problem?

Did you guys read this, (quote from the_knex_source)

This manual was created by me, and is copyrighted material.

This really freaks me out.

Read it, pissed me off, filed another complaint to e-bay, you should all do the same.

Problem with the VeRO program is that the original author needs to open a case and some of the original authors aren't on the site any more.

I have not doubted his motives for a second: Money!

If that is true, I wonder why he just doesn't sell something else that can make him more money? I mean, if people find out what he's doing people probably won't buy from him, leaving him with no money earned anymore...

We know quite a bit a bout the guy, he's a law school student, so this makes it quite odd. The reason for him selling our stuff is because he never had to do anything for it.

I'm betting you guys haven't seen this part of his description of the manuals

WELCOME EBAYERS! THANK YOU FOR VIEWING!

Finally, after popular demand, I am offering the COMPLETE package of all my custom K'nex Roller Coaster instruction Manuals.

That's right, you will get:

1. The Beginners Manual
This is an introductory manual that will teach you the basics of building knex roller coasters. It is the essential starting point for all you beginners!
2. The Intermediate Manual
This manual is the next step. It will take you through the workings of a wooden style knex roller coaster. This coaster is called "The Shotgun Barrel" - I built this coaster and created a step-by-step manual that will show you exactly what pieces you need and how to build it. See the pictures of the coaster below.
3. Automatic loading gates
This is a more advanced manual that will teach you how to build automatic loading gate on your coaster. A must have!
4. Modifying K'nex coaster cars for optimal speed
This manual will teach you how to modify your orange coaster car so that it will operate much faster on your track
5. Modifying the track for extreme twists and loops
This manual will teach you the tricks to making your track extra strong so that your coaster rides much faster.
6. Braking mechanism
This is a very cool manual that will teach you how to create a braking system so that when your coaster reaches the station it will stop. Otherwise your coaster will just zoom right pass the loading station.

If you purchased them individually it would cost over $45. You can now get the complete set for just $28.95!!!! I will mail you a CD that contains all the files. You are granted FULL printing rights. The CD will be in the mail THE SAME DAY you purchase. You are also able to instantly download each of the manuals after purchase (you will receive an email with instructions).

SHIPPING IS FREE WORLDWIDE!

I am a KNEXPERT and KNEX ROLLER COASTER ENTHUSIAST OF OVER 15 years.

Don't wait! get started on building your very own custom coaster today!
FULL MONEY BACK GUARANTEE. I GUARANTEE that you will love these manuals and I am going to back that up with a full money back guarantee. If you're not satisfied, I promise to give you a full refund - no questions asked! - try and find a better deal than that! See my feedback for the hundreds of satisfied purchasers!

FREE BONUS: To all who purchase these manuals, I offer ongoing tech support to answer any question whatsoever and help solve issues that arise during your building process. So if you get stuck on something, I'm just an email away with a suggestion!

Oh no, not this guy... I've sent a message to Ebay ages ago because he was using some of my pictures to sell these "manuals"

I've had so many people on Youtube send me private messages asking about "my manuals" I can't even tell you how many people I've told to stay away from them.

I'm surprised he's still selling. I've even sent him some polite messages on Ebay asking to remove the pictures he is using, and he's still going at it. Sad face.

^ I believe you can report him to ebay and say he's using your content to sell his manuals, that would be considered stolen wouldn't it?
