The problem is sometimes people need help with getting their account activated, so they PM a moderator or admin.

can't believe that is coming from a master hacker like you. :surprised:

you should be able to easily modify that group to be able to PM only admin and mod.

That's not a problem, actually.
But I still think that if people are stupid enough to send others hacks because "the zip is corrupted", there's nothing we can do about it.

okay so here's the first comment from the no side......

first of i find it ridicoulous that you have to buy vbulletin to be able to acces a part of this site that has cracks and such for it since hacks are open source and open source is always distributed freely so keep it on your own site (no distribution) or let ppl be able to get it free.

second i myself am a hacker/modifier and i am thinking of buying vbulletin but not before i understand how it works so i can make hacks/modifications for it myself and since the free version is soooo limited compared to the other version there's not that much i can get from that.
and the hacks taken away from non licence owners will only result in illegal distribution of hacks and VB itself and btw. what are non VB owners gona do with hacks ecept maybe midify it more?

vjspeedy1200, while I understand your logic, let me remind you we have no way of knowing who is a non-vB-owner and who is a vB-pirate, and I think you understand why.
And regarding the other point, that doing this will only make people pirate hacks too, well that's obvious and I already know that. In fact, I know of at least 3-4 sites that were doing exactly this and Jelsoft shut them down.

Alright, I think we got enough input on this matter, so I'll close this thread now. According to the results of this community poll, you should expect some changes in a short time.

Thank you for all your comments!

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
