I can personally confirm that you can download hacks when your owned licence - support option - has expired. Mine expired in mid November and there is little point in me renewing it until a new version is released.

That's why I said, "I think" in my post. I wasn't exactly sure what the 30/year entailed besides being able to download new versions. I guess we are never too old to learn after all, huh?
Leased license:
After expiring, you will not have "licensed" access (ie, ask for support, download hacks) from here or vbulletin.com. Also you can not use vBulletin anymore for your website!
Owned license:
You get 1 year of support (download vB versions that are newly released, support). After the first year (unless you renew for $30) you will still have full access to the forums, and are allowed to run vBulletin.
Yes, they only don't have access to new released vB version that where released after their support expired (still can download versions that where released in their licensed period) and can not get priority support (i think).
Maybe we should chnage the system, to not allow downloading hacks released after the support license expired.
Ok, so basically if I go ahead and buy the owned license from vbulletin.com I will be able to post, download and completely view this website my whole life without any problems.... is that right?
That's not the promise You can view and download mods here as long as this site exists That's not necessarily your whole life. Plus, you COULD be banned for bad behavior here. A vbulletin license does not automatically guarantee your right to access this site.
