At that price, I will stick with the free Post Thanks hack. If you decide to drop your price to something more reasonable, please PM me and I will consider switching.
Ok, I think that I need to post my reply here. And I guess many people wouldn't feel the same way I do, but I'll write it anyway.

I agree with you in part that difference between lite and pro version is too small. I think that DragonByte gives too much in their free mods. They might have bigger sales if they would give much less in their free mods, because maybe more people would feel need to buy their excellent products.

Also, I must say that I own only one of their mods at the moment. Main problem isn't that I don't want to pay them. Thing is, I have still very small forum, I barely cover my server expanses (and yes, server costs way more than software and it always will) now. But when I will have more money and will be able to spend more on software, guess whose mods I will purchase.

So, thank you DragonByte for this fact that you give so much of functionality of your mods in their lite versions.
