I am an open-source lover and I always credit the coders back. In one of my projects, I have started developing using MyBB. In the code comments, it is written that there is a chance that users will be denied support if they remove the footer link back.
What I did was change the following
Quote:Powered By MyBB, © 2002-2012 MyBB Group.
into
Quote:Powered By MyBB.
with a link back to the MyBB homepage. Is this Ok? As far as I know, it doesn't matter but I just wanna get your opinion. You can take a look
here.
The minimum copyright is "Powered By MyBB" or other wording which implies MyBB is in use. E.g. "Forum Software By MyBB" with a link back to mybb.com.

Yes, you have an acceptable copyright.
