Not only that but some of the ports will be being done by the original mod author, not all of course, but I sense most of the 470 odd 3.5 mods have been made/ported by those who have in the past had to see the code and so gained experience. What Im really looking at is where are tomorrows modders coming from as now most new comers will just click install and come back if theres a problem or update. Its higlhy unlikely many of the new comers will even bother to view the php in CP for the most part.

In the past theres been those that just install with some feedback maybe, those that install and do some minor tinkering but do gain some understanding and those that go beyond, and release several useful or fun mods.

I dont dispute the benefits at all, more mods are definatly likely to get installed under products and plugins as the edit nightmare is dimminished for each update. I just think that theres a possibility of a future issue for new blood so to speak.

Theirs basically 3 reasons why vb is at its current positon today aside from being reasonable value for money. One of those 3 main reasons is the modding community that itself has promoted and supported with good reason.
