problem is its vb.org that makes vbulletin what it is.. tbh the software is ok, it could be ALOT better..
Don't get me wrong - there are some fantastic hacks, but the board by itself is great, IMO. It has a lot of features that most other boards only have as hacks.
Because I switched to vB, I only need about five hacks now. With the other board I was on, I would've needed around 14, some of which would've used up a ridiculous number of queries.
Perhaps vB could use a little more, but I like how they don't clog it up. Some people like the board the way it comes & those that want more can download hacks. It works out for everyone.

True true. Call me a voyeur, but I think a naked board is fine. I used to really love hacks and download them as soon as I could click, but soon I realized members didn't need a "email this to your pet's cell and have it read in a feminine voice for only a dime" hack. Basically, I just mean that alot of features are nice to have extra, but if I can't think of a purpose for them to be used with my site, then no need to have them. I still love the hackers for putting all of their time into them, though. Without your work, who knows where we'd be? (prolly back with UBB, haha).
