Hey Wild Heart I speak V bulletin Language check it out...
Not only do they not upgrade their own forum...
Offer no colors...
I am going blind with all the lame pastel colors and brightness, sometimes after reading for hours on end I need a bit darker board...always have and always will...
Here is a sample of a classic V Bulletin response.

The issue is not in V bulletin software...
It was the install process or the server or the end user or the administrator...or your Browser...
Anything but V Bulletin...
We can not offer support outside of the software...

If I go buy a car from Chevy, even though they know, I drive on Public Roads and use a windshield from a different manufacturer...

They will try to fix the alignment of the vehicle, not tell me well you are driving on a crooked road...

If the glass keeps cracking for some weird reason...
They look at the alignment of the window frame, they do not tell me to go to the glass manufacturer to get it fixed...

I was having a very difficult time with my Norton Vault when only using win 8... ran fine on 7 and also using same browser,

The problem was I could not add a new user or modify the users account in any way, it would pop up so fast, I could see my admin name in the user name field, then it would reload and tell me I could not modify that account it was protected..>Well no shit...
I bought the software and could not add or modify users... instead of saying we will look into it,
I had no less than 5-7 responses stating it was outside of Vbulletin software...Ok so you know it is not a core issue, so find the answer...
That is what we all paid for...Continued Support not just Flat Code...

From my stand point, when I pay someone for a service and software, like my server Host,
(HOST ROCKET the Best support I have ever found for Server in 13 yrs)
If I have troubles, where everyone points a finger at the other person, and I can not get help, they help. and since it was inside of V bulletin Admin Panel...
They should have considered it an issue just to help their end users...
If nothing else...
Nope...

Hippy has been and still is a great coder...and trouble shooting is his middle name...

Hippy Trouble Shooter Coder the Man...see...

Without his help my site would be even more of a joke than it is currently...

--------------- Added [DATE]1360363296[/DATE] at [TIME]1360363296[/TIME] ---------------

Hippy always tells me to promote my site, since I have a whooping 35 members 28 I created..lol
I tell him no...
I could use the help to get some content, and post from users...
But I am not done setting up the basics yet still way to much to do...

Hippy Just called, he was just in a car wreck on the thruway...almost got taken out by speeding driver in rainy and icy roads...
No I was not on the phone with im when he wrecked...

He is fine just has to get car fixed and rig a headlight...

I am now going to say..

.Sure I donate to him for his help...

However he told me more than once that is not why he does it but he did appreciate it...

I can tell you this, I just sent him money to help him get by until his car gets fixed...

That is a friend helping a friend, I may not be able to smooth codes and read Hieroglyphics hell I had to look that word up....

But he does what he is good at and I can look stupid and help put his kids through college..lol
Just kidding I make decent change and for the amount of time he saves me I think I give 1/4th of that back to him in cash...prorated of course...
