No they didn't. I apologize to MobileCrunch and their staff.
Remember the thread I posted about updating your G1 using the microsd?
MobileCrunch stole the post, my picture and didn't give any credit or a link back to androidcommunity.com
Shame on them: http://www.mobilecrunch.com/2008/10/31/sick-of-waiting-for-your-g1-to-update-heres-how-to-update-it-manually/

Seems not only MobileCrunch, but T-Mo forums as well. Check the article, guy said he got it from T-Mo forums. Not cool.

Send the admin an email, citing the DMCA if they don't wish to provide a link back. If they fail to respond to your request, send a DMCA request to their ISP, who is then legally obligated to take down the site until the issue is corrected.

wow guys... DMCA?
The mods over T-Mo forms closed the thread.
No big deal, just lack of courtesy.

Uh, we didn't steal your post. I am the one who did that post @ MobileCrunch, and I didn't even read about it here.
In fact, YOU did not create the method to do this update. The people over at XDA-Devs did.
We did not steal your picture, we took our own. Gee I wonder why it looks similar? Because it's a picture of the same damn thing.
We don't play that game, thanks.

Thank you Justin, Greg picked the story from me and sourced it correctly. Nothing wrong has been done on his side, he followed the unspoken rules perfectly. I've worked with him in the past and he is very good at what he does. Not a shady guy at all.

I've never claimed that I created the method and if you read my post it says I saw it at XDA-Developers.
I only said that because your post referenced T-Mo forums where the guy over there just copied my post.

Welcome to yesterday.
As stated on the original post I saw it at xda and put the instructions together and added the picture.
Like I said before I didn't discovered the method. The only thing I did was to write the instructions on how to do it in a easier way step-by-step and put some pictures.
