Just use the PHP in Templates or Template Conditionals plugins if you want to do that kind of thing. Not hard.

These two parts of your posts really pissed me off. Because while this is me, I don't think you truly understand the anger that runs through your head when someone violates your license. I've had to contact my lawyer numerous times to kill off the license violators.

This is what the thread is for. (Oops, Don't think the meaning is "to piss you off"), Its for discussions about how to stop the rippers, many of the designers including me faced these kinda problem now or before, maybe they can face in future, the aim of this thread is to have a deep discussion about this matter, sharing these kind of experience if you had.
If you wanted to have a deep discussion you certainly didn't show it in your first post.

Well I don't find anything humorous in it and its a very serious topic. So if the OP wants to treat this as a humorous topic why every user commenting here so seriously! I don't find any logic of posting this thread as there are many other 'humorous' topic to discuss to rather than this.

I don't know if you have seen the previous post or not, where I clearly said the reason of putting that Note. Anyways if that particular matter makes a boundary to the discussion, I would happy to remove that.
I am hopeful that everyone in this thread can participate constructively, however I want to reiterate from previous threads on similar topics that this is not the place to make public accusations.

Also, keep in mind the distinction between creative influence and copyright violation. In a lot of these threads participants have been sitting on their high horses touting accusation of unoriginality while failing to recognize that creativity does not occur in a vacuum. It is perfectly normal for creativity to build upon and be influenced by the work of others, so let's be careful not to paint creative people being influenced by the work of others with the same brush as people violating copyrights.
