Life sux... I'm a n00b :(

Brinnie,

Let me fill ya in a bit about these forums. Maybe that will help.

vBulletin.com is the main site where vBulletin is purchased and supported. They are now in a beta phase, which means that all support goes through their forums, typically answered by members if vB team members don't get there first.

vBulletin can't support boards that have hacks installed as they have no idea what code has been added/removed from the system. If you are going to hack your board, you will not be able to get support from vBulletin.com. Their role is to support the software they wrote -- they can't be omnipotent as to what every Joe Hack and Geek Mack have done to it.

Here on vBulletin.org, you have people who are volunteering their time to provide the community with modifications. These folks are not vBulletin employees, they are members just like you and I. If a vBulletin employee releases a hack here, they are doing that as a member, not as a representative of vBulletin.

There is no guaranteed support for hacks. Some hack authors have more time to support their hacks, and quite honestly, as a member since the second day this place opened, I can say that Amykhar is among the best of the best. There is no official 'support' forum here for hacks, all hacks are supported in their respective threads by their respected authors.

Beta 4 has *just* been released, which means that the hackers here are working on testing their mods to make sure that they are still working with the new code.

This is a community about sharing, not a community about demands.

Now, you have been all over vBulletin.com and vBulletin.org going in 20 directions at once and having conniptions if someone doesn't answer your question immediately. Please realize that this isn't a time of stable releases where everyone is in chat mode -- it is a time of code overhauls where people are trying to get up to speed as quickly as they can.

Switching to decaf may help, BTW.

One other thing -- cussing at people and insulting them is going to get you no where and fast. Had you talked to the members on my board like that, I would have banned your butt for personal attacks and not looked back.

Have a nice weekend.
