Though, it has nothing to do with them being on MyBB, haha. I've been them with in past around an year ago, things were pleasant by then, not sure about now as I moved.
Wow, I thought I was in the hosting thread. My bad.
The forums of msgplus have used MyBB for a long time now: http://msghelp.net/ Toungue
Not sure whether they count as commercial though ^_^.

Does anyone know why though? I never understand why people wouldn't want to.
Alot of companies always remove the copyrights (I've seen some removed from phpBB, others from other forum companies that they don't pay for, etc.) I'm just assuming to them it "doesn't really matter" when sadly it does, but at least they see the value in MyBB Big Grin
It's not that it doesn't matter to them -- companies generally don't want to acknowledge their reliance on external services.

Or to appear to be directly affiliated to a service or product, unless it's their own.

I assume they don't want people to think they actually "support" or "have partnered" with mybb.
Or they might have contacted Chris for copyright removal (wild guess).
