Website ripped
 
Well I knew it was bound to happen eventually, all the content got ripped from my site and put on a Pirated vBulletin ( which I have reported, ofcourse :) ) and he changed the skin and tried to make it his, but he still has all that stuff entitles "Keyhunt" on his page..I am going to list the sites below just to show comparison and ask for suggestions about how I can take care of this matter, if this is against the rules please say so and I will remove all links :).

Here is the pirated version: http://amok.arena.ba/keyhunt/forum/index.php?

And here is my version www.keyhunt.com/forum


I believe he also stole that skin, it is very nice but it is stole. So, how can I get this guy shutdown? Contact host I suppoed would be the best thing to do correct?

Keep it up and I will sell the rights to copy your site to anyone with the cash on hand. ;)

Do you have proof that it is a pirated board and not some sad wannabe? ;)

No, but I took a good guess :P..plus I do not see a vB copyright anywhere..maybe ha paid the branding fee 0_o rofl.

Check the bottom left corner - Although it probably does not conform to the licence agreement on how the Copyright is displayed it does make an attempt to do so ;)

Yea but doesnt it have to have full vBulletin copyright for it to be legal such as

vBulletin Copyright ©2000 - 2004, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.

It's a nullified version - Just browse to the one of the files in the clientscript directory and look at the beginning of it:
Code:

Nullified does not necessarily mean pirate ;)

Technically curt, it should be 2000 - 2005 ;)

And if you read my post, I said it probably doesn't conform - Jelsoft themselves are the only people truly capable of saying yes or no to the attempt and the copyright notice there ;)
