FREE vB licenses for Hack/Mod creators
Just wondering what everyone thinks about this, and particularly the hack community who dedicate a lot of time making hacks, releasing them then supporting them.
Do you think Jelsoft should give a free vB licence to Hack Authors? Perhaps say after 100 downloads/installs? And perhaps larger hack Authors with say 1000 or more downloads get some monetary compensation for their efforts? (exact numbers could be agreed on later) I'm sure many of you will agree that the hack community is one of the most important aspects of a successful platform such as a forum (Don't take my word for it, vb.org has over 100,000 members!) I think an incentive such as this for contributors will not only be of benefit to Jelsoft but to us as the end users as well - I mean where would we (including Jelsoft) be without our hack/mod creators? I think this is forward thinking and protecting not only Jelsofts future but ours as users too. Your thoughts please |

Not necessarily a license, but the annual renewal fee would be cool.

this is stupid... a license for 100 installs... i would gain hundreds of licenses just for that...
no coder would be interested to that for what reason ?... we can't sell our licenses, as there is no reseller system for vbulletin. |

I think it is a nice thought , but by no way would it be practicle. I could see perhaps awarding one a year to someone who has coded x ammount of add ons or templates and shown very good manners and community spirit.

I wouldn't be interested in another vBulletin license. I've already own the same license for years now. I don't plan on opening any more forums so the licenses would be no good to me.
I do however like amykhars suggestion. Give us Master Coders 30% off the renewl fee so I only have to pay for like $20 /y instead of 30 /y |

btw, i don't see why offer a gift to coders that do that kind of stuff... you'Re too generous with the stuff of others... Jelsoft can handle their own promotions without new members suggestions ... |

The idea has been mentioned before. It would be nice to get say 10% off the yearly renewal for every 1000 installs (or whatever). A licence per 1000 installs is not going to interest most people as they have all the licences they need (what would I do with another 7 licences ..... ) |

For once, I have to agree with Paul.
