see the prob im having is that vb u pay at once, hosting u pay monthly. if my dad cuts the host off i still have vb but not a host to put it on, thats y
I'd say it would be a pain in the neck to pull down the vb licence and make the host shut down the board if site owner uses pirated software or breaks the licence agreement if the host is a free host. They have millions of customers, loosy support which tend to ignore email such as these.. So if I were the coder, I wouldnt encourage people use my script in free hosts either, especially if I have a strict user agreement and tendancy to trace users breaking it...
Originally posted by FlyingDutchman well, if this is only for running a test-board, i don't think you're allowed to (unless you don't have any other boards running with your license)
otherwise, you could also run it on your 'puter (without making it accessible from outside of course
You can, as long as the general public don't have access to it and its recomended that you use a directory called testvb so that its easier to tell if its a test board or not.
