Adding a point here: the admins are telling that we complaint too much, we can do it elsewhere if we're not happy... the only problem with that statement is that Jelsoft refuse to endorse anyother website where we could advertise vBulletin... vb.org is the only official place, and we're more like outlaws when we try to do it elsewhere...
vB.org is providing me the only platform available for advertising my stuff, this is even the only place Jelsoft permit to advertise when talking about hacks and products --- go at vb.com and ask for modification tasks, they will tell to come here, nowhere else...
so my example here is good, if we cannot voice our opinions on this site's structure, that means the site do not intend to represent ourselves, then the site is just a face off... so if this is wrong, why all our requests are considered whinning and none of the admin is able to really do the job in the backside of it?!... no time?!... blah blah... if this site is so modified in the background means that someone had the time to do it in the past... if you are obsolete, instead of saving your ass try to save the site by giving up...
You're really missing the point:
1.) Who said you can't voice your opinion on the site's structure? That's exactly what the Site Feedback forum is for.
2.) It's not an issue of not having time, it's an issue of efficiency and time management...waiting for vB 4 before we make any major foundational edits to our code base is the smart, pragmatic thing to do and I severely doubt any reasonable programmer on this site would disagree with that.
