The State of this Forum

[Modshack]

I don't think we should be allowing the selling of any hacks on this forum. I don't begrudge any one's right to make a buck but capitalism in this community only stifles its growth. We could be so much more but never achieve it. vBulletin is a better product than UBB but vbulletin.org is not at ubbdev.com's level.

Freddie I made this point on vb.com and was shot down in flames by many of the people who sell the hacks as well as those who are dumb enough to buy them.

I have always said that this place should be a community and that it should be non profit making and for the good of the community and I take my hat off to you for having the wotnots to say what you think.

I think that some people should lighten up and also learn to take a joke too.

Yesterday I made a post on shoutbox that it was my birthday and that unless people be nice to me I would kill FireFly, I expected the reaction of people calling me an evil meanie as come on I would never consider killing Chen, well maybe if there was a lot of money involved from infopop .

Anyhow the post was made in good humour but people failed to see it that way as they are too preocupied being IMHO bum kissers.

I hope Chen did not take it the wrong way and that he saw the funny side of it. But I realy do think Neo, 69-FLy-gUy and afterlab should go out and smell some fresh air or something.

I myself had a run in with Chen a while back but he has more than proved his worth and that he is capable of running this forum and tbh I see this as his creation.

Sinecure I class in the same light as those who sell hacks as he has sold styles before today, same thing realy as he is using his position to make money from something that is essentialy free.

Anyhow I am happy to see that Jelsoft takes its members views seriously.

Yours respectfully
