I get the feeling that this user is connected with the other board and posted this to direct us all to click the link and check it out and hopefully join.

I rate this as SPAM.

Yes, because telling you that they stole the theme is my plot to generate excitement to visit the site and join?

Wtf?

Anyway, if any post there contains Revision3 it is automatically changed to just a 0.

Pretty sure this skin is fair game to whoever buys it from vBulletin or whatever message board system this site uses. In fact, I'm pretty sure I remember when the forums were first released, someone posting a forum that already used this theme asking why Revision 3 didn't customize it at all. If that site paid to use the skin, they have every right to.

Umm a skin is a skin who cares??? its the core content of the site that matters... although the way its compiled matters alot too

Oh ok, I wasn't aware of that. I figured it came with the design Silver Orange created.

Well, there's a whole thread of people calling that site a rip-off and spam, when it could very well be a legitimate site that paid every penny to use that theme. I don't care about that site enough to look at it twice, but an entire thread bashing it when the Revision 3 forums could be considered just as much of a "copy" is just wrong.

Imitation of web design happens all the time, not much you can really do about it. I remember seeing skins made too look like Slashdot before for wordpress blogs.
