Paid Mod Forum
I was wondering if there should be a forum, where users can pay (using paypal, or another method) for a mod. Users can post their `high tech` mods, and actually receive some [word for receiving money for their work]. I think it would really help some people out, because i know people who have made lots of mods and have been forced to spend 85$ more just to have a forum to sell their mod. Personally, i think this could potentially save money then cost money.

No, i mean where users post their mods, and you can buy it. Like the current moding forums, except you need to pay to download the mods, and all profet goes to the designer. So, its like that, except you dont request, coders post their mods
 so they maby other members would like it.

Interesting idea, but I doubt this will be done because vbulletin most likely wants to be a forum for members to share their hacks, if this was included im sure a lot more people would try and sell their hacks instead of releasing them for free. If something is good, people should be encouraged to donate.

My view on this is No im afraid, i have 1 main reason, If you pay for a mod/hack/add on here, peeps would expect the seller to give 100% support, upgrades and whatever else i have missed, Not all coders do this, if the y it aint for long or another version of vb comes out and they say that they no longer support the older version of the hack etc....
Not only that peeps will more than likely in 1 way or another hold vb responseable should things go wrong and ya cant say it wont happen, i am 90% sure it would, and as fa as i know this is 1 of the reasons this idea will not happen, vb does not want to be held responsiable in any way shape or form... Surely most have their own sites that they can sell from anyway? I also feel that if this did happen then most hacks that would normally have been FOC would no doubt have a price tag on it... These are just my views, i cant code at all and also i make no revenue from my forum (i pay about 85% of the bills) and cannot really afford too much more, i cannot justify anymore costs, this is a hobby for me...... On the other hand, there would have to be some guide lines if this did come about where certain hacks could not be charged for, I would not want to have to pay for a hack for e.g. (mine) that changes the post icons to horizontal on the forumhome, to small, Perhaps hacks that are of a certain size and above, such as vbplaza, arcades and so on... Again just my thoughts, dont want to get slated please.... |

We do have plans for a "Commercial Directory" which, from my understanding of your suggestion, would be quite similar, so it's unlikely we will have a paid mods forum.

:tired: It is ok to have a commercial Boardsoftware - if i want to pay for some greater Mods i bye them on their Site. But if anyone can open a paid Modthread for a simple Plugin it goes to far. |
