When I saw one of their lead developers arguing AGAINST a paid subscription modification, I was wondering what the problem was.

One of the programmers or members made the suggestion of including a "Paid Subscriptions" section - like what VB has. The reply back from one of the lead developers was reasons why "not" to have such a function.

I thought to myself, why would anyone not want a way to make money?? Oh well, I guess they think everything should be free. When I saw the replies, I knew myBB was not commercial grade forum software, nor will it ever be with that kind of attitude of the developers.
