Is it just me or do some people not have common sense?

Maybe it's just me, but it certainly seems that way too many people are trying to hack their vbulletin forum, before knowing what html and php are.

It's just common sense to know what you're doing before you do it.

Do you have any examples of people who don't know what html and php are and are trying to hack their forums?

I don't know anything about php, but my hacks (if you mean mods and plugins?) are all working fine
And, sorry for I did it without proper knowledge of php

I wouldn't say I have no knowledge of html - but my experience of it *is* very basic.

Well i have knowledge (or better my favourites have ) of some good sites where you can look up things.

HTML>PHP xD..noh, but I know HTML alot better than PHP, I am getting there..but it will take a while..but I still know quite a bit about vBulletin itself, you can learn/have/conrol vBulletin without having ANY knowledge of PHP, honestly I believe you can EASILY install hacks without having any knowledge of php/HTML. Just my $.2 .

That is also another reason I want the custom titles for template "hackers" :-D /hint

I would say the majority of those people are here (and not generally the posting type, so no offense to present company). I believe it's Amy's mantra too that you should at least understand what the code is doing before you modify your site.

At least with the new plugin idea you don't need to know much to add/start/stop a plugin.
