Can't they even have the decency?

Have you ever noticed that whenever people see anything "do not" they have a tendency to do it anyway? A more assertive approach:

PM's regarding support will simply be ignored. Please use our support forums for any issues or questions that you have. Thank you for your understanding.

Recently, i've had a couple of problems.One was that I needed some support on a mod from a member who shall remain nameless.I PM'd that user, and after 3 days I did not get a reply, even though the user had been on numerous times. So, I PM'd the user again and got a reply that said that they do not have time to help others with support for their hacks. Okay, I was a little peeved off but I took it-What annoyed me more then not getting the support I requested, but just being blatantly ignored until i had to send another PM. Anyway, I was going to ignore this matter until the day before yesterday

I had a general question about vbulletin.org which involved releasing one of my modifications, so I decided to PM Chris M, who I thought was a staff member that enjoyed helping others. Obviously again I was wrong, as I have not had a reply since then even though again this user is always on and has been on frequently since.

The point I am trying to put accross here is how can people learn without getting support from someone that can give it? I'm sure that they've had to have some help in their time, so why not help the next upcomimg members?

Now, there is all these threads from coders and staff how vbulletin.org is failing, and most are directed at the administrators. Really, I feel that it is the actual coders and moderators that are starting to make it fall down hill! All it would have taken was 2 minutes of their time for a simple reply, instead I just got ignored which I find very very rude, I wouldn't even have minded if they just sent a reply saying they do not have enough time anymore to be of assistance! So, before people start giving this bullshit having a go at admin's, they should take a look at themselves. Treat people like you'd like to be treated.

Now, This is definetly not everyone. Some generally want to help vbulletin.org get better. Xenon as an admin has definetly helped me in the past, as has Paul M as a coder.These are great people who deserve to be listened to, as well as many others. Some just need to buck up their ideas and let the staff do their jobs

Please let me just say again how this is not everyone-Some give all they have got to vbulletin.org and to them I am truly grateful-

Thanks

1.Coders decide if they support their mods
2.NEVER EVER! PM them for support
3.Never try 2 and check 1
