International Earth Destruction Advisory Board

The International Earth Destruction Advisory Board is an independent scientific institution which monitors the current status of the Earth and the number of times it has been destroyed. Also under their purview is the thorough research into, and categorisation of, the possible methods by which the Earth may be destroyed.

Topics: Geocide, Prevention, and Research

The idea is a total ripoff of Sam Hughes’s How to destroy the Earth site.

Hell, even the forum name and description is an exact, word-by-word copy of this page.

International Earth-Destruction Advisory Board

The International Earth Destruction Advisory Board (IEDAB) is an independent scientific institution which monitors the current status of the Earth and the number of times it has been destroyed. In the event of the Earth being destroyed it will be the IEDAB’s job to relay this information to people who need to know and provide advice on how to proceed.

The IEDAB is funded entirely by charitable donations.

So, unless man-man is actually Mr. Sam Hughes, I think he has no right to submit this idea, let alone to win it.

Ideas are also flooding in awfully quickly within minutes, including the forum logo. Just yesterday, Illuminati Job Board was in the lead (a silly idea, but still… ) How are those entries submitted so quick? Who sent them in? This is suspicious. Perhaps we have another case to investigate.

Even without other illegal tactics, it’s still wrong. A parody is one thing, a copy is another. Does ForumWarz want to bumociate itself with idea theft? Are we allowed to steal jokes and submit them in the future?
