Are there any hacks that just WORK?

[Tigerdude]

Every time I'm interested in a hack I read the responses only to see there are still problems with it. These are hacks that aren't even in the beta area.

Are there any hacks that actually work the way the are supposed to without any bugs?

Tons. Occassionally there are some errors but I tend to think that most of the "problems" are either functions the original script wasn't built for or someone not paying close enough attention to the install instructions.

Alot of mods are very complicated too so its easy to mess something up while installing it.

Most modifications (especially those out of the Beta area) work. The problems usually ocure when people don't follow instructions exactly or aren't using the same version of vBulletin or have conflicts with other hacks.

Of course there can be bugs, but everything has those, and most are found rather soon and the first post is updated with a fixed version...

It is selfish to say - certainly. But I think moderators should moderate people that "agree to give support for this hack", because a lot of the time they don't actually do it.

I know TONS of hacks that are working, just because you see errors on the first few pages (if a hack has 100 pages) doesnt mean theres somthing wrong with it anymore.

Usually, as stated above, "problems" are really issues with people who don't understand what they are doing. Other times, it's feature requests, or issues after a code upgrade.

there are bound to be errors, it may be a program but programs where made by humans and thus inevitably its flawed Anyways i hope seeing errors doenst discourage you from installing hacks since usually most of the authors respond accordingly to fix them. But say like 6 months after the hack is released it may be hard for the author to come back and keep up on problems with his previous hacks, especially those who have numerous hacks out. Anyways dont let error posts discourage cause their only meant to better the program/mod for you
