The problem is not the 'rules' but how they are enfoced.

You can shout up and down about 'no zip, no thread', yet you guys have had vBarticles up here for over 1 year and it hasnt been downloadable. Heck, it has its own freaking forum!

You cant say you havent noticed, mods have posted in the premium forum and on the thread.

what was it... 6 hours for someone who spoke out and over 1 year (still going) for someone that didnt?

I sat a couple days before pointing out the hypocrisy, however I finally caved in. I am sure there are others - its just that I remember all the hoopla last year over a 'premium modification' having its own forum but not being able to actually download it from this site. Mods were cool about the situation - giving the author the benefit of the doubt. Why is everything so different?

Im not trying to 'grass' anyone up. I am just pointing out that the rules are flexible when it seems to suit staff but inflexible when it doesnt. I am sure if Cinq would have made a stink that he was leaving because of staff and such, his stuff would have been pulled long ago.

I think Cinqs stuff is still valubale for the hundreds of users that installed the system. Obviously its of less value now as it doesnt look like anyone has installed in a year. However people have recently installed Jumps stuff. Archive it for thier use. If he returns his hacks - reinstate them as full threads. If not, leave them archived for 6 months and then dump them.

Stop playing ego games and get this site back on track!

I might as well add to the additional inconsistencies about rule enforcement around here.

Check this sticky thread out-> https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=102739

Notice anything interesting? A lot of 3rd party vendors selling skins.
However oddly enough it can't be done for 3rd part modifications. Geez, customers seemed to appreciate the information on skins - but saying '3rd party vendor for modifications' is akin to saying you worship the lord of darkness around here.

Rules are great - if you follow them and enforce them across the board. Otherwise they come back and nibble your bum.

Enough poo stirring for now
