Not that I really care, but for the sake of the argument... what makes you think that warez owner have no access to vb.org, either via some legitimate user who added them (remember, we can also add our co-admins), or by being legitimate users themselves. The license system may make it harder for non-licensed users to access hacks, but it is definitely not a barrier for a pirate. And to justify the SUDDEN change in Jelsoft policy (in the past it wasn't even allowed to discuss the lockdown hack) by the mere existance of the license system - which happen to be installed ever since I purchased vB 2 1-1/2 years - is simply nonsense. Well, no need to argue here. Jelsoft already tried in the past to sell us petty explanations for sudden and unexpected policy changes (does the vB3 importer system ring a bell?).

Erm, mabey you should go back and read, this restriction was in place before vBulletin.org had the system in place.

The restriction was in place until Logician wrote this announcement TWO days ago.

The license system has been in place for as long as I can remember (that is at least for 1-1/2 years when I purchased vBulletin).

Nope, the restriction was in place until 1.5 Months ago :)
And it was just in place that long, because Jelsoft never said it could be lifted, and we didn't ask to lift it ;)

Xenon, I am not here to argue with you or anyone else ;) Whether the restriction was lifted 1-1/2 months ago or two days ago doesn't make much of a difference considering for how long the license system has been in place.

Besides, according to Logician, hackers who are willing to release the lockdown hack are "now welcomed" (NOW - not 1-1/2 months ago) to do so.

Let's stop this argument; I think most of us know that Jelsoft's decisions and also the timing of those decisions is very often incomprehensible to us mortals.

I have made it since the first vb3 release just not freeware.
I might release a free lite version soon.

Also paxtrack (not 100% sure about the name) has release several lockdown versions.
