Though I use this "hack" myself, it may be taken tounge in cheek.

Instructions
------------------------
1. Fire up your FTP program and navigate to your includes folder.
2. Open up vbulletin_credits.php and select all, then press delete.
3. Save and Upload the empty file. :devious:

Result
----------
Less clutter on main ACP page.
Faster loading?
Area can be used for other things.
Helps prevent itching and scratching.

HOTM?

Feel free to move this thread if needed. :nervous:

No one sees these credits except admins anyway, so it's no big deal.

I think any who even edits their vbulletin software is taking credit away from the gods who made it. All hail jelsoft. Ok, I'm done being sarcasic and silly.

I think I will actually modify mine. Thanks for the funny tutorial.

Nex...You're always so crabby... you're always giving negative comments about people's releases, you did the same thing to the guy who posted the Search Engine in AdminCP hack. And since this modifies files... it'd belong here, not in the How-To section, right?

They do take credit for the work they do. And since only admins see the credits this removes, we already KNOW who to credit...after all we PAID for the software.

Uhh, is it legal to strip the credits out? And if it is, is it ethical?

Legal? Yes
Ethical? Up to you

I don't see the problem in freeing up a bit of space on the admincp homepage, I might do it myself and replace the credits with something more useful (board stats and what not).
