I feel we need to be allowed to talk about and have at least a links directory for our paid modifications. Jelsoft is making a fortune thanks to us coders that are making all the free modifications that really steps this software up to the next level. So basicly they want us to help make them money but they wont help us make money. Some of us have products that compare to vBulletin in size or even bigger then vbulletin. Which is why im tired of people saying we are just out to make money. The fact is we work hard for our products. If I have addon products for vBulletin that I have made that is the size of vBulletin or even half the size of it you are crazy to expect me to release them all for free. I should have a place here where I can tell people about them so that the community can enjoy them. I spend on average 80-120 hours a week coding on my products and hack and clients sites. I work extremely hard on the code that i make. I have bills to pay just like Jelsoft does.

I am also tired of hearing people say that if we had a paid modifications database here that it would stop the free hacks. No honestly it would allow me to make more free hacks becuase I would spend less time having to work on clients sites to cover my bills.

I am also fed up with the attitudes of people on this site. The non coders love to pm me for support on hacks that I didnt even make and when I reply to them and tell them nicely that im not the person to talk to about it becuase I didnt make it I have had several people go off on me. I am not going to deal with that. I mean I dont even support my hacks via pm. I support my hacks on my site and when possible on here. Yet when I dont support a hack here I get ranted at for hours and hours at times by people who are pissed becuase they couldnt follow simple instructions or were trying to modify it and broke the code, all becuase they feel like they paid for vbulletin which to them means they paid for my support and time as well.
