I'm a little surprised at the dismissive pushback here. I thought I was presenting my concerns clearly and respectfully.

First of all, when I said "The wording strongly implies that the theming of my vBulletin site was also done by TMS", what I meant was, this statement will lead someone who is not familiar with vBulletin software to believe that the branding customizations to my vBulletin site/forum was done by some person or group called "TMS". Obviously the statement as you have it written is factually correct, but it's also misleading, especially on sites that are not related to software, vBulletin or otherwise. If you don't see that as a potential issue or problem, then I suppose we really do lack common ground on this issue.

Secondly, this is what is actually written in the version of the readme.txt that I downloaded yesterday:

This Modification will display a small copyright-notice "Template-Modifications by TMS" in the footer of your forum. According to the license agreement for this modification, you are not allowed to remove this copyright notice! If you want a branding free version, please contact me (andreas.kirbach@gmxpro.de).
