Only to people like yourself who have something to sell.

And, yes, integrity was the exact word I was looking for.

yep sharing and learning i agree to the above


To the others
i don't know why we are reiterating the same point

we don't want people making a fast buck on this place
if paid mods were allowed u would rarely see a free mod

for example if u had the opportunity in a place to release a free or paid mod
what would u post
especially since this place could become the center of trade for paid modifications

fair enough we are here to see the beginning but it isn't easy to shake off an image of center of trade once its labelled on
the very fact that they can't release paid mods here is what makes it desirable in the first place

as a customer of vbulletin and as a learner of php / databases
i would say if i had to pay for something and i knew i could get it elsewhere free and to a similar standard i'll just go elsewhere

i think the very fact that this conversation topic is up means that you don't want to give your hacks for free
thats fine but take it elsewhere

in terms of communication there are other mediums of releasing paid modifications so go do it
