I'm interested in purchasing on Vb, but I hear a lot of users whos mods/plugins have failed because they are no longer compatible with the latest version of Vb. Even if for example v3.5.1 works, v3.5.2 will no longer support their plugin/mod.

Who is it to say that the mod author will be there to release the next update?

If not, the core functionality of your website may come to a halt.

What is one to do when this happens? Rollback if that is even possible? Learn to code? Pay someone to code?

It would be great if there was another way to install mods that would not rely on the version of the forum software. At least not until complete new builds have been release e.g. v3.x.x - 4.x.x.
