I find it incredibly asinine that you flaunt your "updates" and "honors" through a mailing list ("- v3 Arcade wins the first ever vBulletin.org Hack of the Month (for a vBulletin 3 hack) Thanks to everyone who voted! - https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=61385") - a mailing list that I didn't subscribe to, yet throughout this entire thread you offer no real support to people who need it. A third-grader could write a better install script than you have provided, but weeks have come and gone and you have failed to take initiative to correct something that should have never been released in the first place.

Reading through your posts, both here and at your site, it seems to me that you have created this hack not to provide a service to the vB community, but to make a name for yourself. When an author of a hack agrees to offer support, he obligates himself to address issues vB users have with the hack. If you don't want to offer support, that's fine... but don't be one of those "over-worked and under-appreciated" programmers who thinks the whole community should lick his ballz just because he "said so." If such a number of webmasters, people who obviously are somewhat html/php savvy, are having problems with your instructions, you may want to reconsider how clear your instructions are.

"Given that..." if it's fame that you're seeking, you may want to consider an attitude check as yours is one of the most childish and arrogant ones I've seen on the net in a while. If you genuinely want to offer something to the vB community, you need to learn that your way isn't always the right way and listen to the people who are using your hack. Even if you don't take their suggestions to heart, there's no need to be a prick about it. - "Doug, you haven't installed it properly then." I'm sure Doug appreciates the support. :disappointed:

whoo slow down a bit m8

im glad u are a minority voice as your post is way ott - John is right is what he said - there have been many successful installs of his hack and it does work fine - infact id have to go so far as to say it was one of the easiest i have done.Skill level for this hack is deffo easy so back off a bit cause you aint getting what you want.

Is it any wonder hackers are getting pissed off at people cause they release hacks only to get abuse from members?

If you cant get the hack to work and support aint adequate in this thread for u then put it down to experience that this hack aint for u and move on - dont come flamin in the post as that aint gonna get you nowhere.

As for John sending out an email - good on him - if i won Hack of the month id do exactly the same - id shout it from the rooftops as well if i was crazy enough so fair play to the guy and let him have his glory without some tosspost ruining it for him.


Also i see u are on post 1 - so u regged to abuse this post,anyway like john says

Given that, what do you think the problem is?

Dont reckon you will get help from anyone with that sort of attitude and i to be honest i thought i had a bad one but even i know when to back off.
