Well I just signed up cuz I was going to post in the services section of this forum, however, it looks like no one is helping anyone in there. There are lots of people willing to pay but they are being left out in the cold.

I was going to post asking for a vbulletin skinner to help customize my forum, but after viewing post by post of people who can't find anyone, I may change my mind. Is there any other forum out there that will have more skinners in one spot?

Thanks for any advice.

By no replies it does give the impression that the requests are gone unanswered. Only a few ever go back to their post(s) and say that their request(s) have been filled.

I & others have tried to get it changed, but no joy - noone even seems willing to give it a trial.

I no longer bother with that forum - most requests are too vague and you cannot clarify them without resorting to PM - my PM's are always on the 500 limit anyway, so I won't waste them on such things - esp after my experience of last week - there was one I could have quickly done, just needed one minor detail - but when I tried to PM them, they had PM's turned off !!

One of the best way's ive seen it done was at forums.digitalpoint.com

If you make everything too secret, no one can sample the various portfolios, website links, etc. It does make it harder.

Wow! I just realized we have a 500 PM quota. :classic:

Funny some people complained that wasn't enough.

I'm sorry, but vBulletin.org can't make people do service requests. We create the place to request, the rest is up to the users. If people truly want to help out with service requests and want more info before accepting they can use the PM system. If this is too much work, mummy is the only person they can complain too. You want the money, you want the service? Do the investigation yourself.

Nope, I don't agree. I think it's the wrong way to go, but oh well.

vB is a hobby to me, not a profession. If that's the official attitude then I'm glad I decided not to bother with that section anymore.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
