A site, apni-mephil.com/forum, has been removing/changing the authors copyrights of SMF themes. After registering an account and posting on thier forums, a polite reminder that leaving the copyright intact was part of the terms of use, we were then banned from accessing the site, and our messages were deleted.

I have sent an email to their host, is there anything else we can do?

One funny thing is, that the theme they are using as the default, has the copyright changed, (it is an image), but if you hover over it, you will see the original copyright message. :rolleyes:
