No content has been copied. And, even if it was - it is open source material.
Any point you are driving at here is moot.
Lol actually no it is not. Who cares what the owner drives, this is his site and his content. Anything that is posted on this site becomes his, that is the nature of a forum. To take that content to use for your own forum is dishonest and disrespectful. To take advantage of this sites membership base to build your own competing forum (competing because it is based on crossfire owners which is what this site is based on) is also disrespectful, dishonest and inappropriate.
Using your logic, I could take the source code from Microsoft windows vista because I am afraid microsoft may "go dark" aka go bankrupt so in my fear i want to save this operating system. Therefore I am going to "borrow" this code to use and call it mrphotoman vistaa ultra 6000 operating system and charge people twice as much to use it.
Good luck with your crossfire forum and it is clear you have it set in your mind there is nothing wrong with what you are doing. Some people can not tell wrong from right and it is evident that you and some of your super secret club members are becoming angry that I do not agree with what you are doing. In the end my opinion really does not matter on this because it will have no effect on what you are doing.
I hope you guys have success with your club and I hope it is not detrimental to this site in the end. It would be a real shame to see this site destroyed so a few people can make their own crossfire forum and maybe make a few bucks while essentially raping the site that brought us all together in the first place.
Regardless, good luck with your club. There are some kids down the road that have a club as well and they all appear to have fun with it. Their membership dues are only a candybar and they have a secret handshake and everything.
(calm down guys, i made a funny.)
