That is the current protocol.
There is no significance between a user asking for help or if the user is being generous and giving you a hack. If the user's post content indicates that they are using vBulletin then they need to enter the license information. If they can not do that because they are "helping" someone than they need to get that person to log into their account and enter the info for them. The password is not stored, it is only used to verify the license's validity.
I can understand that some would like to overlook those that are only posting hacks and not asking for help but that is not an excuse.
