I have few question about Brand removal before i make purchase.
1. If i purchase now, when Xenforo 2.0, am i have to purchase again ?
2. Brand removal working for bot/script too ? for example some seo script able to track/trace what cms i'm using, i need that to be hidden.

thanks

1. The branding removal is perpetual and therefore will carry forward to any XF version.

2. The only branding removed is the copyright link in the footer:

Forum software by XenForo™ ©2010-2016 XenForo Ltd.

You are able to change anything else you like within the software using template edits, and editing images and such.

However, it's unreasonable to expect customisation to the level that it completely disguises the original software. For example, there's certain files or bits of code which reference XenForo and therefore it will usually be fairly obvious what software you're running based on that.
