They are different names anyways(Pimp My Forum = Pimp Up My Forum? :huh: ), so I'm not sure why he cares. :/ Well, a little sure, but still..

What, Did you get the idea form RFB?

i got it from my own head.....IF Styles was the First and only forum that is using it, becides this rip of the idea. Plain and simple, its like the Double Post multimod from the IF Skin Zone, tis my intellectual property, plain and simple, just like said double post multimod from SZ. Im only allowing it to be used on IFS, thats it. End of story. You ripped an idea, which btw....im reading up on copyright law to possibbly take out a US Copyright on my intellectual property as a Programmer would on his or her idea for a program.

The reason i am so phased by this is becasue

a. Ripping an idea is just as bad as ripping a graphic or skin, come up with some of your own creativity.

b. I dont want our compeditors opening up with a faux pimp your forum either.

I wonder if all the other "Pimp your...." phrases are copyrighted.

There's:

pimp your ride
pimp your site

Well yes But I was the First to have a Service Like it Called "Forum Service".

But I took it off when no one complited, and then IFS came with theres and It was A Hit.

Basicly Pimp My FORUM is copyrighted as in Pimp up my Forum

If that ripping an idea is truly bad, I'll have alot of people to take care of. :ph34r:
And I highly doubt someone would copyright 'Pimp your forum"

You mean you were the first to create a forum service? I thought IF Skin Zone was?
