vbseo denied me as a buyer?

vBulletin does.

Bravo Juan! In an age where moral decay rules the day your stand is refreshing and encouraging! There will always be critics...and it seems that the most vocal critics are either the one's who can't afford the product or can but don't qualify...which means there would be no critisism if no one was interested

Merry Christmas all!

Really? Marihuana? Adult? If so why so many vbulletin forums with adult and growing marihuana contents? They even ask for support in vb boards and even show the links to their sites and last time I checked their forums are still there.

They do. Maybe not the current subject matter, but they do deny licenses to sites based on their content.

actually the software is drastically over priced, and I Could afford it, in fact I could buy 2-3 packages of it ATM, that doesn't mean I will, for several reason that I've already expressed in other thread,
I laugh at you and other when they say this, the only ppl that dislike this product are the ones who can't afford it. I've been reading alot about how to promote your site and I still argue that you don't need any seo to be successful.
you can look at the largest boards on the net and they don't have fancy url's like this.
there are many other things you can do to your site to make it SEO, that doesn't involve some high priced product to have a like on your site

a note to the thread starter or anyone interested in other editing you can do to seo your site, I'd check out this forum

good luck to everyone

Please - Enlighten us as to your reference point for this information...

As I see it, they only disallow the use of their software for sites such as warez sites, due to the legalities of their own software being pirated, and the copyrights and legal issues with other company's software being pirated...

I know of at least one large cannabis related vBulletin site (Overgrow) and I know that Adult content is not prohibited by the vBulletin Licence terms...

Like I said, they do deny licenses based on the content of the site.

I bet they are super religious fanatics. Anyone that wouldn't let their software be used on a pot site is an idiot.

Like I said, that's only warez, something not supported by most if not all companies with commercial product(s)...

So as for disagreeing with that particular policy, well, most places won't sell you software if they believe you are going to rip them or other people off

And technically, that's not "denying licences" - That's revoking and/or taking legal action if your licence is found to be used for such activities...

Software piracy is only one of the items listed. Intellectual property, trademarks, etc covers many different things.

Again, as I said, and I'll say it again, Jelsoft does have policies that pertain to the content of the site. Period. Two people have said that they don't, and I'm just pointing out that they do.
