Just curiously. What type of mod you can't find for vB3? I believe that is just the opposite.

For example your one, classified adds mod, you released once vb4 version here (I think you have removed it then not so long ago) but never vb3.

Another good example would be vbblog made by vBulletin Solutions themselves, vb4 comes with it but vb3 vbblog not only is abandoned as for development but also totally difficult to get because vbulletin decided to no longer offer it, whatever the reasons are and the license can be obtained only from a third party which is huge pain. That's really mayor addon I think and many people constantly ask about it.

Some coders also abandon development of vb3 versions of their mods while they still continue with vb4 versions which is quite logical especially when they upgraded their own boards as well.

Well, there are plenty of other mods available for vb4 but not for vb3 and vice versa. I think there is no point in listing them all here. Nonetheless I'm not complaining, if I really need something I write it or I hire someone to write it for me treating it as the cost of business and fun. As long as vb3 is still there to buy and download and security updates are released it's all good I think. However, people should have the right of choice, especially when they paid for it.
