This mod would be alot more functional if it did something similar to verisign. For example, say you go to videogamedepot.com (not my site, I am just using it as an example), there's a verisign logo on the bottom left. You click the button and get a pop up with security information about that site. For example:

Quote:

WWW.VIDEOGAMEDEPOT.COM is a
VeriSign Secure Site

Security remains the primary concern of on-line consumers. The VeriSign Secure Site Program allows you to learn more about web sites you visit before you submit any confidential information. Please verify that the information below is consistent with the site you are visiting.

Name WWW.VIDEOGAMEDEPOT.COM
Status Expired
Validity Period 07-APR-03 - 09-APR-05
Server ID
Information Country = US
State = Iowa
Locality = Cedar Rapids
Organization = Cart-Mart Inc.
Organizational Unit = VGD Web SalesTerms of use at www.verisign.com/rpa (c)00
Organizational Unit = Terms of use at www.verisign.com/rpa (c)01
Common Name = www.videogamedepot.com

If the information is correct, you may submit sensitive data (e.g., credit card numbers) to this site with the assurance that:

* This site has a VeriSign Secure Server ID.
* VeriSign has verified the organizational name and that CART-MART INC. has the proof of right to use it.
* This site legitimately runs under the auspices of CART-MART INC..
* All information sent to this site, if in an SSL session, is encrypted, protecting against disclosure to third parties.
So we have learned that videogamedepot.com has had its verisign status expire in April of 2005.

If this mod somehow linked back to vbulletin.com and queried tho server to find out if the forum id and url matched up against the record at vbulletin a user could very quickly figure out if the board was legit or not.

That would be much more useful.

Would be nice if VB gave discounts for having this on your site, great hack!

Stylish 02-10-2007 06:41 AM

It would be nice if vbulletin makes a report form in order to report suspicious forums :P it would be more uselful than the logo.

Deadly Assassin 02-10-2007 06:13 PM

I would like to put this image above the copyright from Jelsoft in the footer.

Please can you tell me how?

:up:

They do - it's here:
Code:

http://www.vbulletin.com/piracy.php
As said previously, it may not be such a good idea to link this modification to that page since it could lead to misunderstandings - eg: if someone entered YOUR url by mistake . . . or even maliciously. That's an entirely subjective issue though.

What would be really neat would be for vBulletin to provide a link to some kind of "verified licensed" image that would only be available to genuine license holders. That would put a bigger hole in the concept of an unlicensed board displaying a "bluff" logo.

In the meantime, this is quite a neat addition . . gonna install and see how it looks. :up:

Thanks for the hack... installed...

if you want to incorporate the png in Spanish.... or spanish users, simply rename...

Phr34q 02-17-2008 05:31 PM

Good call, im on a payed vb and im gonna put this on my site asap.
If u decide to make a Danish one >> "Dette Site er imod VBulletin piratkopier"

Thank you in advance!

BrotherX 03-21-2008 03:30 PM

I don't understand why we need to put link for French or any other side with this mod? To me it look stupid. I think best idea is if vBulletin in footer put some link for automatic license checker, so when user visited vbulletin forum in footer he will be able to click that link which will redirect him directly to vbulletin automatic checker, which will check vbulletin license database and give user answer good license, bad license.

Something like that.

Phr34q 03-23-2008 06:19 PM

If it looks stupid why bother replying to this thread?

If I want to wear nike's , god forbid, I will wear nike's, if I feel like putting up a full page on my website telling the world that I am against VB piracy/copies/nulled s*** I will.

If it checks my license or not is not important, for me this is a personal statement, not a security meassure or what not to ensure my users that I infact payed for my licence.

Any others on this one?

denman75 03-24-2008 08:29 AM

agree ^^

its personal and if its contributing anything or not
its the statement for me

cclaerhout 10-26-2009 06:14 PM

Considering vBulletin officials attitude towards their customers & the vB community, my mods will be remove from vBulletin.org on the Friday 30th October. If after this delay you want to download one of them, just contact me.

Best regards,

Cédric Claerhout
