Uhh, I'm sorry but I cannot control the actions of others. Who the heck is this person you are talking about anyway? Whats their username so I can get the owner of that site to look into them?

Thanks,
Derek

Hey guys, I am one of the admins of the above mentioned website. I sincerely apologize for any harm caused because of this entire matter. I was not the admin that installed this hack, nor did I know he had removed the copyright or editted it. I went through and made sure i replaced it exactly the way it was originally.

Thanks to those of you who made me aware of this situation.

Once again, I do apologize.

And even some people claim they don't install just for that reason.

I wonder why vbulletin.org hasn't created a copyright protection policy we can all use.

I would hate to have to integrate a call home function

Wanting to protect your work is your right.

A call home function ? Sorry your on the wrong site stonyarc. www.microsoft.com is maybe what your looking for. They're good at things like that.

You do know there is a call home in the vBulletin admin cp to get the latest version number correct?

A call home itself is not a bad thing..

I work closely with Microsoft on a lot of Xbox related matters and things have changed a lot.

I can tell you that first hand.

Call home serves a purpose in several matters not the least in version control. It's a lot more handy for us if the hacks checks for the latest version.

Thank you for correcting the issue.

It should never have happened but it's done.

I thought it was me because he mentioned someone had problems with people redistributing hacks, and I think I was the only one that said that...

It all comes down to basic respect.

If you just see how some of the people "demand" support or talk to you if they cannot get something installed it's just amazing.

It's a hobby and passion for all of us nothing more nothing less

"IT would be so nice without users" :D :D

i - for one of many - thank you for the kind of work you've done.. I think that there should be a better way to check such people from downloading or participating in an 'honor system'...
