Well, first, ripping is usually associated with music and videos. Second, if it is open source, you are allowed to install it without changing it. I think you are misunderstanding the meaning of open source. If someone open sources a web site design or some PHP, coldfusion, java, or other type of code, you are allowed to use an exact copy of it. Hence all the sites with tons of FREE web templates and such. Now if the open source license requires me to give a link back to the site (I won't normally use this, because it will look more professional for me to make my own stuff) I will link back. I just find it offensive to say that when I spend hours editing some open source PHP files to create a game, someone says that it is ripped.
