Calm Down.

The person that released it had no permission

Hi Shazz,

Honestly though, we're allowed to discuss the changes and explain how to do them, but not allowed to post them? That's not a very logical or practical approach. It's like ridiculous government red tape everywhere, it just hampers everyone.

Everyone comes here for support, and there is red tape everywhere and obviously no support on some threads. I have seen this situation on numerous threads in here over the last few weeks.

VB.org needs to bring in a policy, where if hack authors disappear for a prolonged period, then in the interests of VBulletin hacks and the support level on this great website, other coders should be allowed to offer support and update those hacks, period.

That is a totally workable and acceptable solution in my opinion. And solutions, not rules, are what we need.

What hack author would not want members here to get support from other great coders if they can't be here? If they did have a problem, they could always mention it in the top of the hack thread "no other coders to touch my work", etc. I doubt people would be voting for their hacks though if they did do this.

My submission to VB.org is to update your policy guidelines so that this great site can function in the flawless way it was designed (to give great hacks and great support for those hacks).

Regards

Reggie
