Kind of a low blow Imo and he even admitted he stole the whole template from me. If it's allowed that's fine I guess, I just wanted to know if this is this is considered against the rules or just bad mannered.

Answering a question with a question is considered spam. Good job on your +1.

Well, their intent is to provide the same exact services as you, not to harass you or mock your topic, so it's more bad mannered than anything.

If someone were to take your topic, make minor edits to mock or harass you, then that wouldn't be allowed.

But, what they are doing here is fine.

He's a 17 with under 20 posts.... are you worried that this is going to cut into your business lol?

It's fine. You could consider it bm, but Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery? You should be happy that your service is so successful that a new user (well, a multi anyways), would copy your template to try and bolster his own business. Also, he gives you credit in the thread for stealing your template. So, I def wouldn't even consider it BM when he outright credits you for the design.

Just an incredibly silly thing to be bothered by

Haha I promise I'm not threatened. We are too far in season anyways, services are pretty much dead for the season. Was just genuinely curious if it was allowed or just bad mannered. I've just never had someone directly copy and paste my thread AND even state they did it within their own thread lmao.
