"Could you please enter your license..."

[amykhar]

I am sorry, but this is getting worse every day. Can either

a) the board be configured so that non-licensed members can not post. If you wish to keep some forum open for non license holders, such as PHP help or MYSQL help, then DELETE off topic hacking requests posted by non license holders and answer any general questions without bugging about the license.

or

b) quit asking for the license info on the board. If they have the right to post here, they should have the right to have their questions answered. Conversely, if you don't want to answer their questions, they shouldn't be able to post here.

or

c) set up a separate forum viewable only to the unauthorized users, and MOVE the posts regarding those issues - "why can't I download hacks?", "I have no money can somebody hook me up?", etc. into that forum. Solve those types of issues out of the way of the legitimate hacking community.

This place is overrun with posts of that nature, and it is detracting from the real purpose of this board. I want to be able to know that I am working with legitimate owners of VBulletin, or their authorized representatives. That's who this board is supposed to be here for.
