Failing to Give Attribution

“dwasifar” has a new post accusing another website of using their Creative Commons content and refusing to give attribution. From the post:

So I sent him email saying, look, this stuff is CC licensed, all you need to do is add attribution and everything will be fine. After sending that, I starting getting tired of the whole thing. I figured, screw it; these tutorials are meant to help people, and even if he is a jerk, his derivative work is helping spread the information. So I sent him a second email telling him I was letting it go and he had permission to use the work.
