Honestly, I don't release my mods for novice users. I write code that I need and I put a little effort into documenting it and packaging it for others to use. I could care less about install counts or titles. My goal is simply to share code with others who have shared code with me. It's not, I'm sorry to say, to share code with anybody who owns vbulletin. The level of support required to make modifications suitable for all is just too much to expect from somebody for free.
Ideally, coders could limit access to their more difficult mods to fellow coders to prevent the frustration novices feel when they run into problems using code that is beyond their abilities.
Until that happens, the responsibility falls on the end user to figure out how to use modifications posted here. Peer support is available if you have questions, and there is a plethora of information on installing mods, running queries, etc.
