Hey man, I make the most out of free mods all the time, but I use paid mods a lot, whenever I can find one that does something I want that isn't available in a free mod. I can't complain; I'm just happy it works they way it should work. There are a lot of very talented coders working with vbulletin, and that's one of the main reasons I use the software instead of one of the alternative platforms. I'm no developer, but I do lots of code changes to personalize my forum, and I do a lot of the style edits (I even put together entirely custom designs from time to time), so I get a very good perspective on how much work goes into a lot of these addon products, and I have nothing but appreciation for the hard work involved. If I have to pay a bit extra for something, who am I to complain? I gotta eat, too.
