Personally I don't think we shouldn't allow this discussion at all here. vB.org is not involved in this whole discussion and it should be taken to the vBSEO support forums. It is also just asking for another thread that will end up in needless promotions or personal bashing. We will keep a close look on this thread, and it will be closed whenever it shows any signs of getting out of hand.

I have the same rules in my Terms and Conditions plainly posted for all prospective buyers to see. My position is it's my property, I own the intellectual rights to it and am selling you the right to use my property under my conditions. Call it discrimination or whatever you choose, but it doesn't change the fact that it's my property to sell to whom I choose. Some may say this is a poor business decision, but I say it's a poor business decision to have your product associated with certain content. Thank you and have a nice day

Same here and I agree totally.

Even though I don't fully agree with all of vbSEO's restrictions and policies, I applaud them for sticking by their convictions instead of turning a blind eye to make more money. In todays day and age thats rare and should be applauded.

is there a vbSEO aftermarket? I'm pretty sure folks have purchased and not used/liked it.

whats the big deal about his site being about marijuana anyhow? its not like he's peddling kiddy pr0n or anything. if its about marijuana being illegal, well there are plenty of places (Denver AND Alaska in the US) where marijuana is legal for personal use. can someone make me understand?

I don't know if their TOS allows for license transfers.

It is de-criminalized in some places but it is still illegal in 99.9% of the US. Either way, my reasons for not allowing my products on site's with that type content are personal

As for VBSEO, I think that it is a joke to what they are charging for that software. The hack itself is just as much as the Vbulletin software. So would I purchase it at $150? No! Would I try it out if it were only $20-$30, most definetly. If I didn't like it or if it caused to many problems, I would just uninstall it.
I'm talking about my SEO mod which does the same as vBseo. Don't be fooled by their feature list; as half of it (in my professional opinion) is a load of nonsense. At the end of the day their product boils down to targetting keywords via URLs, nothing more, which is exactly the same as what mine does (and mine will do more soon too)

And whomever brought the law into this, I'm pretty sure the first ammendment doesn't apply to Costa Rican businesses vBseo is based there.

I detest when people start throwing around "free speach" and "first amendment" rhetoric...

Get a grip and while you're at it, learn to read and comprehend:

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances. "
