You're not understanding what I'm saying.

What I mean by the possibility of accidental overwriting is: The installation instructions say simply this.

Quote:

Upload all the files from the "forums" directory in this zip into your forums directory.

That's it. If I didn't know what I was doing and simply followed these instructions there's the potential to overwrite your forums admincp folder, images folder, includes folder, and clientscript folder.

The instructions should say to install the contents of each of these folders into their corresponding folders on your server. Otherwise, there is the potential to overwrite these folders.

Does that make sense?
