vizionz, using the copywrite thing was a veiled way of charging for something. How many people payed to get the arcade and not really to remove the copywrite. I would bet most.

It's just like vbportal. They say the portal is free and you pay to use the forum where you can download it.

Both instances are just different way of packaging a pay product in a manner that attempts to disguise things.

My thoughts exactly!

i am sure most bought that option to just get the beta release first but. for some users more business type sites. removing the copyrites from the products your using makes your site look more created by you instead of someone elses product..

like the portal is a good example. when you viewing your portal page and your viewing it and people are reading your news or whatever ya put on the main page. and they scroll down and see a link to another site powered by they click it and see the same thing your running. then another business or competion decides i ccould do that too. so they get the same things as you and now your both running the same type of system. so its mostly used for people who want to trick there users into believing you did it all yourself..

But that would basically be lying to your users, if you wanted to make them believe you wrote something you didn't. Not a good practice to get into for any site.

It wouldn't be lying to your users - your users don't care who created the code or the bb software they are using- I see it is an attempt to hide a "how to recreate my site in 5 easy steps" lesson from the competition.

If the coder wants to offer a "Pay to remove Copyright" initiative, then that is their choice - Other than that you must keep any and all Copyrights intact unless the coder authorises you to remove it

of course- I don't think anyone is suggesting otherwise.
