Sorry I should've made it more clear. I wasn't saying Chen left because of IB.
He left before it, but when he left it was really the turning point of many great coders slowly moving on too.

and now, yeap, most coders left... any generation of vB make a move in the list of coders, some will raise in the next months as there is new gaps to fill in the market.

Couldn't agree more.
I am personally a bit sicken when I see people stating "here is my cool mod, if you want more updates buy the pro version".
Personally, I think users should NOT be allowed to promote their products. I understand there is costs involved, but as a student myself. I do a lot of stuff JUST to learn or for others to learn or heck even for fun. As a student you don't get paid to do much of the work anyways...
So I agree it's more of a high school area, where your learning and sharing with others.
