There is a hack for what the author gives support in his own community only. I read that only once but i think that should not be put as the new standard here.
Support should be given here (vb.org) because i (and you either) don't want to register at another community just to get support for one single hack.
Writting a hack and giving support goes together and vB.org is the place for both.
On larger hacks (vbarcade) i can understand it because there's a lot of support to do but in general this should be permitted.
Tell me please what you think about it
For an author to release his hack here, it ensures the liceses users can get support from fellow members and the like, however, a popular hack can become hellish to track bugs and problems in a 2000 post thread.
For me, and i think matt as well, we will always do our best to support our hacks here, as well as on our site.
