He coded up a hack, and offered it up for free, to everyone here at vb.org. Should you be inclined, you can ask him to make forms for you instead of making your own. If you don't want to read the directions and take the time to learn to build your own forms, you can ask him. You're angry about using a FREE hack by Abe1, and that he won't take extra time out of his day to write up custom forms for you for nothing? In addition to all the time he spent coding the hack in the first place, you expect him to take more time making custom forms for you for free?
Abe's hack isn't "clearly a money trick". You PM'd him, he replied with his fee. Nowhere in his hack does it say "I will spend hours writing up forms for anyone that wants them free of charge". The hack IS free. If you want custom code for YOUR site, it's common sense that it's going to cost you.
A very selfish argument, and not a very nice way to drag someone's name through the mud because you misunderstood him. He didn't take your money, he PM'd you with a price, and you're implying that he's some kind of shady businessman. It's posts like this by people like you who make coders not want to publish their stuff here.
