I am not going to post on Site at all...

Seems,
I am growing a bit tired of getting into it with support about a Variety of issues...

I do not like the way some responses have been made to me, I clearly disagree with paying over 1000 dollars this yr to simply to
Buy VB5 which is not working with the mobile add on and then to pay 49 dollars a month for the yr.
When clearly we will be lost since there are so many problems in VB5...
You will have to stay in with support to fix the issues...
or it will be disastrous...

I had made a post in the Pre sales section and it has been deleted since I voiced my thoughts about this problem...

I am wasting my time and others and filling this site with useless information from the standpoint of support and other members...

So in Respecting the Members here I will not reply to any post anymore, or reply to any contact from anyone here at all...

If the Support position changes maybe one day in the future I will come back to life in here.
With this I mean the overall Site Support for the Creation and development of the software...
Not the support staff directly...except ONE...

I wish everyone the best, but feel as though I will get banned, if I continue to give my opinions and show my thoughts...
I would rather since I have paid as a customer and have been with V Bulletin since 2001 to remain quiet and simply read get the updates and upgrades as I see fit...and keep it at that.

I did try to help a few folks a bit, when support was lacking and I will not do that either...

I wish to all a great day and the best for the future ...

You don't need to buy a year's worth of support - why not save yourself the money and only buy a month's support IF and WHEN you need it - if your problem can't be resolved via the forums initially?

Your post was removed due to the nature of the post itself. If you have an issue with a member of staff and their response to a thread, as per the forum rules, create a support ticket:

Staff Disputes

Any disputes with the staff of the vBulletin Community Forums will be handled in private through the Private Message System or the Support System ticket. If you wish to escalate any issue with staff then please visit: http://www.vbulletin.com/go/sales.

Looking at pricing, if you discount the support contract until such time as you need it (indeed, if you do), the costs are actually going down compared to vBulletin 4:

vBulletin 4 Publishing Suite/Mobile Bundle - $469
Annual Mobile Suite renewal - $99

vBulletin 5/Mobile Bundle - $399
Annual Mobile Suite Renewal - nil

While not feature complete yet, vBulletin 5 is a saving off the vB4 prices - and those missing features will be added back through the vBulletin 5 product cycle.

So, there is no need to pay over $1,000 for the product however I appreciate that you won't wish to discuss this further and I wish you the best with your site(s).
