fil, maybe he's like me, I dont fill it it because I want to register as quick a s possible and then I add al my stuff if iI become active in that forum.

Anime-loo, thank you for the explanation. I think that's a very good system. :)

It has one flaw, though. Multiple people can be authenticated under one license. I guarantee you that there are several loser customers out there who are letting 13-year-old kids leech off their accounts and get support.

Thats a known problem, i can tell you from frist hand experance that half the anime boards out there do this, i get aims all the time like this one:

"Hey man, can you support me?, im legit but theres like 30 people using this acount blah blah blah" at witch point i block and report them ;)

i know that there must be users like myself as well, who have not posted their site in their profile, as the site is not yet open to the public. in my case, the actual site and all of the designing is done, however the content needs to be added prior to the site going live. it would make a horrible impression to have people checking out the site, seeing it's empty, and then never returning.
(i have a DVD review site)
i have the site root listed in my profile, though not the forum.

my license is registered properly with vbulletin.com, just not added to my profile.

I'm just glad mines legit, although I am leeching off my bro til he puts his up ;) then I have to go back to phpbb :mad:

I believe the believable stories. I can get suspicious quite fast so it's best to watch out.

you wouldn't believe the one's I've heard

*block*
:p

lol^^ funny

hey...when is this new system (like vb.org/com) going to be installed? Is it the exact same system?

We never even said anything about a license system coming here. As you already know it's on a trust basis although I randomly visit member's forums to see if they're legit and report them if they're not.

If such a thing should ever happen SaintDog would make a forum announcement. If you feel that a board's license status is in question, report it via http://www.vbulletin.com/contact/piracy.php .
