There is a member (pitbull3) that bluntly copied my site.

His site: http://degree-gaming.com/
My site: http://dimension-gaming.com/

When I tried to contact pitbull3 about it he decided to go this way -> http://d.pr/i/sVjC (wich made it worse for me...)

Just wanted to warn everyone if you ever need to work with him, watch out cause he is not shy from stealing and probably other lame stuff.

Well dude, many sites use boot strap.

If both sites use the same forum software http://puu.sh/4TgIX.jpg
and both site owners used bootstrap to make their own theme, they're bound to look some what similar.

From personal experience, pitbul is just a bit impatient sometimes, and can get a bit angry, so his response to being accused of copying your site wasn't really too bad.

lol thats the guy who resells machines without any linux knowledge and always ask for solution here for his problems with linux, also he pretty much screws ppl over, he resells 6-7 years old or older servers for like $80-100 while you could get new xeon machines for that price

The theme was purchased and heavily modified by me. The theme pitbull3 used was a 1on1 copy of my customized theme (and he didin't purchase it). It has nothing to do with bootstrap btw

Indeed it does look like he copied your skin, I didn't look at the CSS but the two forums look identical to me...
Then again he runs like what, 89342364237 trade servers so don't even bother I'd say, some people are better left ignored.

Our community has been stolen from so many times I can't fit it on both my hands anymore. The best time was when someone literally copy and pasted the HTML/CSS for our homepage, had our logo plastered all over his website lmao. But usually it's just taking all our forums (exact same order, same name, same description under it, all word for word copy).

Take it as a compliment.
