I read yourdispute. I can sympatize for the lack of answers you got.

But you might be in error. Like seriously. Consult an honest lawyer beforeyou do real legal action. Because you might be dead wrong about your copyright issues.Not the least because evenif you are "right", it might still fall under fair use doctrine and all your claims would be void, no matter the licensing issues. And that you tried to revoke an unrevokeable licences after the fact tells me, you do not really know about the legal stuff.

The resaon i advise youto consult an expert is, because you are liable for damages, including lawyers fee of the accused, if you neglect considering fair use or worse, file it under bad faith.

As far as I know, when I create something, I own the copyright, unless I distribute them under a CC0 license. I've never gave anybody the right to redistribute my work and I've clarified what they can be used for recently. Taking what people own and selling it as is will never fall under fair use either. This whole ordeal just puts me off from giving away free stuff.
How did you read my dispute when the guy removed the comments?

you might have more than one dispute ;-)

and please do consider informing yourself thoroughly before taking action that might make you liabel if you were in error. The fact that itch did not took action (yet) tells me, that they do not think you are right (yet), so it might not be as abvious as you think.

Yeah, they've already lost the chance of hosting any of my games by ignoring me and siding with a thief that stole money from me. Looks like they don't appreciate the actual creators.
I'm too old and petty to let people that wronged me slide. Let's see if I get petty enough with age to take my business elsewhere. I'm already on the edge of removing all of my free stuff just because one guy abused my generosity.

This is frustrating yes. the lack of responses. I know for a fact that they do act on valid or valid looking complains. That is why I assume that your complains are not as clear as you think they were

They were promising a better environment for creators when I joined, I remember years ago, they came to the forum, talking about their new platform and how they will cater to our needs if we join. But I guess greed got the best of them over the years...
If you search `itch.io alternatives` , the main reason creators are unhappy with itch is: being ignored by support. Looks like they've forgot that without real creators, they won't have anything to make money from, other than stolen junk.
