you realize that coders don't get paid, right? you make it sound as if you're entitled to their code and support because you paid money for someone else's product (vbulletin). I do think that there should be some steps taken to encourage and ensure more/better support, but by no means do I think of it as something that I'm owed/entitled to from coders who are sharing their modifications for free. (maybe some option to uncheck the support box on hacks that say they're supported when in reality they're not? Maybe some award for those that provide good support, like a member vote or whatever?)

And why would you run to .com and throw a tantrum about people here who are providing useful tools to others? Who cares if there is competition? It'd actually probably be better if there were more competitions because many people like to be challenged and it would end up making the modifications better and better.

If you want to tell .com that you think they should have paid coders/staff who release hacks and modifications, then say so.

Would you go to the redcross and whine because aide workers, who volunteer their time, are competiting with eachother to try and help the most people? Or if they had meetings which only aide workers were able to attend? [sarcasm]Oh no, segregation!! They're people just like everyone else, but they get to go to a meeting that I don't get to go to simply because they're helping others and I'm not! Bring out the human rights activists![/sarcasm]
