[Krahl]

I'll point out that one of the primary reasons why I've chosen vBulletin for two licenses was the thriving and helpful community here at .org. Having mods that help your site and community are a vital aspect of doing business (even if it's just a hobby site) these days.

I will also note that I was set to buy a third license almost immediately but due to this upheaval that third purchase is very much on hold until some resolution is found to the massive bleeding of talent going on here.

From the perspective of one of those who utilize the free mods here - and as one who has paid a talented coder more than once for their work - I am severely disappointed how things are going. I really hope things get ironed out sooner rather than later.
