Fakes and promises

I got 2 emails regarding the fake of my site. The author of that site and the writer of these emails don't reveal their identity. So they're both not much reliable. If You have any hints who the writer of these emails or the author of the fake site is mail me please.

The funny part is the fake of my site states "first there was MacMark and his page". That's wrong. There've been some other (Mac)-C&C sites before mine. Good ones, but they're not updated any more. Well, my site was the first to publish actual informations about C&C players. Now there're many other new sites copying my successfull style.

Maybe I should rename the fake of my site because it isn't a fake of mine anymore...

Here're the emails I got:

MacMark,
I am new to the CnC world. I am not revealing my WW name because being associated with you in any way makes me sick. I am quite the devoted fan to the fake of your page as well as all of the CnC pages. You have recently removed the link to the fake site from your page. I know that you stated that if any pages were not updated often, you would remove them. Well my bookmarks have not been deleted, and I strongly suggest that you visit the fake site. Yesterday I noticed that it was updated with a little warning to you. You may want to check it out. If I were you I'd stick to playing your little computer games. Being able to use GoLive Cyberstudio 3 doesn't make you intelligent by any means. You're way out of your league man. Game over?
Maybe for you. What will the future hold? Only time will tell. I would like to give credit to the unknown creator of the fake site. I am looking forward to it's future. "Beware the fury of a patient man" I think the creator of the fake site is quite the patient man. Don't you? If you have any guts at all you'll post this on your page. I didn't say anything that wasn't appropriate or unnecessary. I only said what needed to be. Thank you for your time.

MacMark,
Just checking out your page like I usually do. I see you have got the new Flash plugin to see what the future holds for the fake site. I don't know man. I think you're out-gunned this time. How come you don't know who the author of the fake site is? I know, and so do a bunch of people on Westwood. You've got to dig deeper man. I'll be waiting for the fake's next update. By the way, thanks for not posting my last e-mail. It just proves what everyone already knows. You have no guts, nor pride. You're not a lion, just a little pussy.........cat. Later man.
