As a side effect these hacks will then also become more readily available to all the 'less honest' boards as well, since no one else has a registration check system.

Exactly. I agree with you there too.

The bottom line:

There is NO OFFICIAL POSITION by vBulletin.org YET.

Let's not assume things until we make the announcement one way or the other. :) Feel free to discuss it though.

In the meantime, as this site belongs to Jelsoft, we will discuss with Jelsoft.

It may be that during Beta testing, hacked Beta vB3.5 sites will not be allowed to report bugs.

I shall be discussing this issue as it's an important one.

In my opinion the best way would be to only allow plugin type of hacks during the beta period.

Erwin 05-25-2005 06:59 AM

We are still discussing this. Just so you know.

Really looking forward to this coming out, I can see alot of potential for people to make some quick cash helping people upgrade and install some hacks again hehehe, I will be one of the payers probably :p

Well done vb team

Update: This issue is still being discussed. :) No policy decision has been made yet.

Seems a sensible option, since this is testing an official method, and not altering the base code.

True but plugins can only go so far - some hacks will require code editing. It will be good for hack authors to try their best to make their hacks plugin so that upgrading would be easier for everyone though.

I don't see the plugin system being such a success. I mean, take for an example: Theres a query beeing runned in showthread.php. Would if the hack you create can be added to that same query to do what you want. With the plugin, you would have to run a addtional query.
