vb.org Archive - Major Additions - ibProArcade

Guys, we should get together somehow and "force" MrZeropage to upgrade this to VB5 and also to fix some issues with VB4. Small donations and nice word can do miracles. Are we allowed to create separate thread in order to do this, to gather and see who is interested?
Can we talk about ammount of donations and to see how many of us are interested and later on to contact "Zeropage" and see is this possible.
If we are not together we cant do much, but together we can do a lot!

Where would be proper place to ask "vBulletin Solutions, Inc" to simply give free licenses to some coders here?
This would benefit everyone, if only license is a problem but I am afraid there is more to this than just a license.
Only trying to do something, better than doing nothing.

It was an idea, suggestion. You sound like I placed my hand in your pocket :D
Big companies with lots of resources tend to invest in future, and this will be investing in future of VB.

Anyways, I am 99% sure that Ibproarcade will be upgraded to VB5 sooner or later, I bet sooner

As I can see many of us will not upgrade to VB5 as there is no enough modifications, would say that many of us will not go for VB5 without favorite modifications.
If you look at VB5 modifications that really looks pathetic now, after how many years ?

Things go two ways, no mods less sold licenses, more mods surely few more or much more (I dont know) licenses will be sold...
How it is not investing in VB future?
Its like when real estate companies invest in parks....

I upgraded to VB5 because I was thinking few of my active members would not mind that much when it comes to modifications like Ibproarcade, I was very wrong and now thinking to go back to VB4...

ps
Used VB5 license we can find from 80$, think about it.
And I bought my first VB license because of modifications, if in that time I would see just few modifications I would never purchase it....
