While I absolutely agree with the idea that everybody shall obey the copyright law, still I don't get it: why would you all who create the stuff and post it on public forums obviously encouraging everybody to use it - why would you want to impose the copyright protection on it?
What's wrong with you people?

If you intend to sell it - sell it but don't bring to the public places. Because the goal of the public forums is to demonstrate and share, offer help and teach, but not to advertise or satisfy your narcissistic needs.

Just because it's a public thing does not mean they should remove the copyright. It's just like removing the copy right off of IPB or Vb that you bought but didn't pay extra to remove the copyright. It doesn't matter if it's free or paid. You should contact their host and have them remove their hosting. If I made a them I would a impose copyright because I made it not them and I don't get any credit for it.

Many and I mean Many people out their want free. Now, Chris and the rest of the staff used their spare time to develop mybb. It can take months just get it started. After all this work Yes, I would want something in return.

No, but I don't think it's hard to make.

Yep just make one bot that can search a specific forum (such as MyBB) set it to scan it's index and then look for the html copyright Wink
