This is why people, we have "beta" versions. If they release a RC and its buggy people will complain. Sit tight and be patient.

What about the crontab scripts I suggested a few months back? Technically, they're not hacks...

I can understand this, though the biggest loss is the community in general as people like myself hack things and move on, this time I was planning on writing everything down and throwing it out there, but I am a then and now person...so I do my hacks like I did before and like before they just sit in hiding in some little hole in the web because I am to busy to go back and figure out what I did and write it up so it makes sense.

And add ons that don't touch vB code are allowed right? I wanna put my Clan Tools hack in Beta and it only touches a few files but I can make it so it dosn't till RC.

That would be wicked if we could as I have seen some already.

You can post vb3 ADDON'S because i have done so with the messenger and one of the admin/mods send me a pm and asked if it was a hack or a addon so i said addon because it is so it was ok all i was asked to do was say it the topic that its a addon and does not edit any vb files or database.

Do you know if new templates will consider it a hack? No templates are edited but a couple are added.

People, this is not open to discussion at the moment. Any discussion of or actual code modification or extension of vBulletin 3 beta is not allowed here. Sorry, but you'll have to wait until the RC. It's not that long a wait, and by not hacking, you will have a stable base on which to hack later.

Exactly my point for not hacking my board. Not only that if they change files that you hacked in the RC. Then you'll have to rewrite the code anyway.
