I did find a site though where some jerk removed the copyright without paying to do so. I contacted him and he got all defensive. I don't think there is much I can do seeing as he has his own server. That's not very encouraging.

Whoah, wow. Its only $10. I'm sure there is something you can do about it though. Here is one site:

I will have to see what I can do. He claims he modified my script heavily, but it looks to me all he did was change the look and remove the copyright. Hopefully there is something I can do, but if not I will just rely on the honest people who use my script and maybe shame the ones who remove the copyright without paying.

I was also going to ask for the URL but wasn't sure if you would post it, but not for spamming though, just to go and see how he really has modified it and if you can tell.

Yes becouse we know Brandon wont support this action becouse he is professional.


I also want to see how he "modified" it

All he did was change the way the script looks (the HTML output) and remove the copyright.

I am not going to give out a link, that would be bad.

I do know, though, that his site will soon crash. I made a test board and he had about 100 MyBB themes installed. For one, that many themes will shortly crash his database, as all of the themes are stored in the database, and another, some of those themes don't work with the new MyBB version because they haven't been updated. He also has an ad about 300 pixels high at the bottom of the forums. I'm not too worried.

Simple thing to do is create a forum called fraud sites or somthing along the lines or even reported sites put in captal letters


"FOR THOSE PEOPLE SEARCHING GOOGLE FOR %WEBSITE% DO NOT GO NEAR IT THE SCRIPT IS HERE FREE"

Or somthing along the lines belive me this works people searching google for his site will imediatly leave it and wont bother touching it.

Get him blacklisted in a simple way. It works. If he asks you to remove the notice say yes once you return the copyright. :) job done.

Or he could just delete the forum :P

Yup. This method works tho because if his sites blacklisted on google.com no one will even touch it.
