LOL ..... everything goes paid eventually it`s a fact of life ....

So is the fact that everything comes back

... Sourceforge .. Firefox .. Winamp ... Opera ... All opensource/freeware, and closing in on the paying market ....

Personal opinion.. I don`t blame you guys for goin for it, but the world is not short of coders or people with the willingness to learn how to code.

Seem to also have heard a lot on the subject of 'professionalism' .... If someone releases a free hack, is this classed as an unprofessional and I quote 'buggy' product? Some programs I would classify under this catagory, however some I would most definatly not. Lets take explorer for example. Not a legal peice of software and buggy as hell. Thought I would pick that one as an example since you are all web developers and probably know this more than most.

Justice is being done for all non-coders.

Don't get me wrong here - I am still most likely going to be releasing my code modifications for free here on vB.org and supporting the free community - There is a need for it and we wouldn't have any paid modifications without it...

But I recognise the need for somewhere like I'm trying to get setup; Without it we'll lose people to other forum softwares and eventually lose more coders that turn commercial

I am not saying I'll never have any paid modifications; I'm just saying that anything I release here will remain free

Actually, you were pretty clear about what you meant when you wrote, "No offence, but this is why this will fail."

I think that an organized and well thought out approach will ultimately provide a valuable resource for vBulletin owners and may actually improve the level of products being offered.

We've already proven that paid addons for vBulletin can be very successful; why ignore the marketplace?

I have used hacks witch is free and i have paid fore it if i really want it.
This is my choise, and thank good that i can have this choise.
v.org has a very large group of really good coders. The most of them is giving us help right away and keeps up with the upgrades.

There is one time i got a littel confused about a hack. And that was because it was promissed. Promissed and promissed. And in the end the hack was usless without the rest.

It is not quite easy to be a newbi here, because some of you are so good with the coding that you forget that not everyone is just as good.
I really is thankfull fore all the hacks you guyes and girls make. But i did a mistace by making a thread once to say thank you to a coder. Because i was impressed by his fast work and his devoting to be a great coder.
A angry moderators told me that, that was the reason we have pms.

Ok, i understand that. But sometime you coders need to hear that you are aprishiated perhaps.

Sorry fore my bad english, just wanted to say my 2 cents.

And I just explained the one "this". :ermm:

But it looks to me that is not going to be the case already. I like that a non paid hack person is going to try and run the forum.

Don't try and twist my one disagreement into being a doom sayer, It's not working.

I'm eager to see where this goes. I have no reason to not embarce a place to hawk my work.

You just want a pissing match, find another to play.
