I’ve noticed that this theme being sold on the forum, at an exaggerated price of over $1000, is actually a COPY adapted for the MyBB platform of an original theme created for a different platform – XenForo. The theme in question doesn’t offer the same functionality or performance as the original version, which can lead to security issues, slow load times, visual bugs, and more...
For those who may not be familiar, the original theme can be found here and here – where you can find complete details about its design and features.
There its the original author - image : Dribbble
I recommend considering the technical and security risks when purchasing copied themes or not doing it at all.
I appreciate your understanding, and I hope that all your investments go toward original products, helping contribute to a more professional and honest community.
Peace
Hello,
I agree on most of it described here. However, I have to correct a few things.
Kingz author is not the one linked from dribble. The original author of kingz theme is strong (Behance), the cost of the theme was around 1,5K - 2K told by the owner of Kingz. It was rebuilt from scratch by us for emudevs along with the addons upon request.
As already explained above, I'd highly recommend not to buy the theme here. It looks really broken and not finished at all.
I appreciate the active discussion and feedback regarding the XFERNOBB theme. I’d like to address some of the concerns and clarify a few points:
Bug Fixes and Performance Improvements:
It's true that the initial version (v1) had some bugs and slower performance, primarily due to JavaScript issues. However, these issues have been fully resolved in the latest version (v2), which is now optimized for speed, functionality, and user experience. I’ve worked diligently to ensure that v2 meets the highest standards for MyBB users.
Customization and Functionality:
The XFERNOBB theme was rebuilt to give it a similar look and functionality as "Kingz," which originates from XenForo. However, it's important to note that this theme is designed specifically for MyBB. To achieve this, I developed plugins, customized files, and settings to replicate almost the same functionality as "Kingz" while adapting it to the MyBB platform.
Regarding Synapse-Themes’ Claims:
While Synapse-Themes claims they built their version of the theme from scratch, it’s evident that they too have heavily relied on the Kingz design and code. This raises the same questions about originality that have been directed toward my work.
I want to emphasize that my work on XFERNOBB involved rebuilding and adapting the theme specifically for MyBB, providing tailored functionality and seamless integration with this platform.
Commitment to Quality:
My goal has always been to deliver high-quality themes and plugins that enhance the MyBB experience for all users. I welcome constructive feedback to improve the theme further and ensure user satisfaction.
I appreciate everyone’s understanding and support as I continue to refine and expand the XFERNOBB theme. If there are any lingering concerns or suggestions, please feel free to share them—I’m here to listen and improve.

First of all, stop with that ChatGPT messages, it makes you look cringe.
Secondly, the part where u addressed my claims is simply just out of context? Read my post again, it said we rebuild kingz.net, just like you. But we instead, made it right from the start, without any problems and issues - All our customers are satisfied.
I don't think that this customer of yours is satisfied with your job
Thanks for your feedback, but I think there’s a misunderstanding.
I didn’t just provide a theme. I delivered customized plugins, set up the forum, created categories, and handled every small detail. It was a full service, not just a theme.
As for the client in the screenshot, I’m happy to fix any issues they have. My goal is always to ensure clients are satisfied.
About the design, it was tailored to the client’s preferences. Design is subjective, and not everyone will like the same style.
Calling it a scam isn’t fair. I put in time, effort, and expertise to provide value, and my pricing reflects that.
Let’s keep this professional. Wishing you all the best with your work!
How do you expect your clients to be satisfied and happy under such conditions?
Your entire CSS includes tags from other websites such as the ones I mentioned – EMUDEVS – KINGZ.
(You have attachments – images).
"Design is subjective, and not everyone will like the same style" – How can you say this when your theme is a copy/RIP (of the first/second version of the original theme) made for another platform?
Try coming up with something original before further embarrassing yourself and tarnishing the name of the MyBB platform.
