^^ Mighty good point. I just want to be able to support French speaking people in a more composed and oriented atmosphere. :)

[bump]

Erwin, filbert, or Xenon; would you please sticky this because I believe it is really important. That would be mighty great. Thank you. Regards,

- Anthony

Let me get this straight -

www.vbulletin.fr is different to www.vbulletin-fr.com

is that right? What are the differences?

No, I wanted to create an official site that could be put up now, quite similar to vBulletin-Germany.com. I wanted to get this through the people and start the real site, not sit on it. I know that they tried before but I also know that the French are a bit tired of waiting. I just want to make their wait worth while. :)

Anthony, you obviously seem very charismatic and generous to this matter, so don't misinterpret me for asking the following for it is just out of curiosity, but why are you involving yourself in a France vBulletin hack-resource site, should this not be done by an official or representative from the vBulletin/Jelsoft staff? Maybe instead you could advocate your concerns to them and pressure for a change? Or is this something that Jelsoft cannot attend to and must subject their clients into fending for themselves?

Thank you Velocd. You are right in that I do lack the power of being on the Jelsoft staff. I would pressure them though I believe that currently they are already hammered with too many other problems then to worry themselves about starting another foreign language site. All I wanted to do was to ease this stress and help in the best way possible, which in my eyes is to take it upon myself to get this site going. I would only like to push the issue as long as the vBulletin population sees fit, which is why I created this thread. Excellent questions, I must say.

@Crater Seraph :
Our objective (vbulletin-fr.com) , i think is the same of your: become the official vbulletin support in france.

We just want :

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- To give a hight quality support for vbulletin product in french.
- Translate, create and share Hacks/Mod only with french vbulletin custumers.(not unlicenced)
- To show how vbulletin sofware is wonderfull and that jeloft is aware of french community.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For the moment you should admit that on this three points there is nothing official. ( I hope not for a long !! )

As you know John doesn?t want to start a french support community right now.

But we still thinking that it?s important for us to continue our work because french people really need support as much as other vbulletin customers.
We work in the respect of the law, as well has the regard of jelsoft as hackers of vb.org or vbt.com

Hacker now are easly understanding situation, that we are not hack stealers and we are very respectful of copyright etc etc ...
So Now we always take prior agrement before translate hacks .
And I would like to thank all hackers for their agrement because a very large majoritie is ok ... :)

We really work hard to be official for a long and if you want also to start another french support i should tell you that the way to official will be long ...

French vbulletin community for the moment is divided and create a new one is not (in my mind) a good way to get one day an official site ... maybe a joint work would be, I think, a better solution

There is allready 2 french community at the moment.

I'm the owner of one witch can be found here : http://www.vbulletin-fr.com/forum/
This forum have 1500 members.

Of course I'm disagree to do see a lot of french forums... It would be great to discuss about that in this french forum or by pm to produce better quality of work because creating a new community is harder for you.

So, do what do you want but I vote "disagree".

............ who are you exactly shovel ?

As Corbu said, there is already two major forums devoted to vbulletin

www.vbressources.com
www.vbulletin-fr.com

We've already asked Jelsoft to become official but without success, and I don't think you know enough about the french community with all its problem ...... :disappointed:

Moreover there will be soon an other french forum which will be open, I thought 2 forums were already too much, now with 3 I'm not sure it will be a good thing ... :rolleyes:

Yes there is vbulletin-france already and vbulletinfrance i think :)
