Kunena forum software is copyright protected, licensed and distributed to you under the GNU GPL . The licence does not prohibit the removal of the visible copyright. In layman's terms the visible copyright is the same as the "powered by" link. The software is released with no warranty and no guaranteed or implied support. Users do nothing illegal by removing the copyright; we simply request that they do not.

There are deeper issues involved in what constitutes a legal breach of the GPL but this is not the appropriate forum for those kinds of discussions.

Well, the GPL covers the removal of the headers of the files.
Not the code itself. The link is in the code, so anyone is free to remove it (if he/she can).

My suggestion to Kunena Team is to proceed as phpBB does. Anyone who removes the copyright has the right to do it.
However he/she is not eligible for support in the forum.

It's quite simple. If you remove the headers in the files, you are removing attribution and thereby violating the GPL.

Is there a commercial version I can purchase in order to remove the text and not have anyone mad at me? :evil:

What text do you want to remove? You can remove/change whatever you want but you have to leave the copyright notice in the code. There is no commercial version of Kunena.
