Holy Rashômon!
I'd like to know one thing. Did biglenr post only in the "rogue" thread in this forum, or in the real one in the Classifieds as winner says? And how can there even be disagreement over whether this happened or not?!
As for winner's original faux pas, it was my impression he posted in the wrong forum by accident (i.e., he was not being sneaky and trying to get an "edge" by advertising his theme here). IMO biglenr overreacted with a pretty harsh post in that thread. Then winner overreacted to the overreaction, etc.
No worries, at least there's still some life in the WIS forums...
