MOTM for May 2008

[PaulSonny]

I appreciate everyones patience. Rest assured, myself, the PaulSonny website and the HelpCenter project is going knowhere, development has slowed down a little due to the issues mentioned above but will be back to normal once everything has been verified.

Thanks, Paul.

Please all don't see this as a bad thing. Really, it is good for you, since we have fixed all problems, or nearly most. I would like to thank all the vb.org team who have helped myself and Paul through this.

I'd never seen Tabbed Forum Home until now, and after installing it, I'm impressed; it gets my vote.

I do like HelpCenter, but I tend to be more impressed bobster65 by not reserving features for those that pay for them.

Good point... But then again - we're not really talking about phpBB right... LOL

Perhaps you could appreciate the time and effort that goes into coding this modifications, not to mention the support as well?

Thanks, Paul.

youradhere4222, HelpCenter is in 'beta' stage and it is only a lite version. We've always said there will be a paid version. What do you want us to do, add every single feature and do all this for free? Maybe if I had more time, yes - but unfortunately this takes a lot of both mine and Pauls time - so we certainly cannot work for free.

I think our support has been fantastic, and is only going to continue with the 'paid version. I think we've done great so far, especially how complex we've made the lite version.

[youradhere4222]

Appreciating someone's work more than someone else's isn't at all devaluing the effort of them; please know that.

There are plenty of paid modifications that require payment to use, and I have no problem with that. I was simply posting in this thread to tell who I had voted for, and why, just like everyone else had done.

I don't think a paid version is required to develop a modification, since #1, there's an option to not support your modification, and #2, people do donate to good causes, but I'd rather not get into this argument.

[Jase2]

So, you want us to spend countless hours working for nothing? Do you see vbulletin doing that? No!

bobster's tab ability.

This thread is not for discussion of the merits of paid modifications, thanks.
