I agree - although - I also wonder to myself who they think they are - the morality police for forums?

So let them be it. It is their software. I wonder alot of things to myself about you and your site too. I keep 90% of them to myself though.

I am not in this for any gain. I run a Ford Mustang website that has nothing to do with software, vbulletin, or anything else that can bring me gain from all this wonderful exposure I am getting from defending them. What I do get is my opinion expressed and my thoughts out just like the people that want to hang VBSEO.

The fact that they responded to this thread and hardly anyone... if anyone.... has responded to them directly speaks mounds of words.

I have valid points too that go unanswered.

Where do we draw the line with the companies rights and the consumers rights. I never disagreed that some religions accept marijuana into it. I never disagreed on any of that. So your right. What I want to know is where you draw the line.

Love me or hate me I could careless. This is the internet, I am arguing my points and my side just like you. If anything you are doing just as much ignoring as me.

Tell me where we draw the line on a company's name being associated with something that many people in the United States, his country, find degrading and problematic to their society

kthxbye

All I see you doing in this thread is questioning why I am defending them, even after I have explained why in the other two threads.

Actions speak louder then words my friend. You post in every thread related to this subject non stop however I dont see you posting much in other threads. Seems like you have a vested interest in vbseo. Nobody likes lapdogs.

If I was you, I would take offense too. Must suck when someone points out the obvious.

Are you kidding me? Leave this thread or take this to PM's if all you are going to do is attack me.

Please tell me how I am a lapdog. I use the product. I defend the product I use because I like it.

I'm sorry if you do not like this but it is not your place to tell me what I am in this thread. You want to tell me what I am then tell me what I am via pm and I will tell you exactly what you are.

Are you done attacking me in this thread are you got something else to say about me?

From what a mind operating at 3 AM can think of, I'd say right around the part where what a user does with a commodity should be none of the sellers concern.
For instance, when you buy a licence along with a gun, the owner of the gun shop don't ask you if you plan to kill someone with it. That licence serves as a way for the police to track you down should you choose to perform illegal actions with the gun.
Similar with the software. The licence along with your personal information can be handed over to the authorities should you choose to use it for illegal purposes.
If someone has problems with shooting animals, they don't work in a hunters store.
If someone has problems with smoking (cigs), you don't work in a tobacco store.
If someone has problems with how their buyers use their products, don't make the product.
Therefore it is idiotic to disallow someone to purchase a script just as much as it is idiotic to refuse to sell someone a gun because you don't want your gun store's name associated with murder.

My advice to future buyers of vBSEO: Ally yourself with a friend running a "clean" forum, and give this as your Forum Url when buying the script. After you have the script, you can change the url for it.
If there proves to be some check in the code that makes the script not function if the owner of vBSEO presses a button, then I will do everything in my power to decode the script and after learning the inner workings, code my own version, which will be available to not only Puritans but cannabis smokers and Muslims.

Please everyone, I can't see why people can't act maturely when a topic like this arises. If your not going to discuss this like responsible and intelligent people, then don't participate in the discussion. The thread will be closed if it continues to go down this path.
