Payments NOT accepted via ANY method

Yea, I submitted this bug 3.5 months ago. They still haven't fixed it.

I see nothing in the licensing terms that requires the license owner to own/lease the domain or web site on which vBulletin is installed....

You didn't upload the files into the directory you THOUGHT you did (aka you uploaded them to a different directory -OR- you're running the upgrade script from a different directory than you THINK you...

Honestly, this does NOT surprise me.

It's not MY definition; it's THE definition. Go look it up and be an informed poster.

It's not subjective. Purchasing a compressed package...

Here's another really simple explanation:

Going to a restaurant, ordering dinner, and eating it is a TURNKEY solution.

Going to the grocery store to buy the ingredients, then...

[wacodep]

I have CLEARLY explained the difference between a "turnkey solution" and a toolkit to you already (just above), and even provided you with not one but TWO very simple examples of it.

If you buy INSTANT COFFEE from the grocery store, do you just drink the dry crystals out of the jar?

Or do you have to have at least a minimal amount of intelligence to be able to read...

[wacodep]

You obviously need to learn the definition of turnkey.

If you purchase a "turnkey" solution, it involve having someone else (the company or organization you hire) to evaluate your...

If Ford or GM announced that they are going to start selling a new model in September, do you rush out in August and plunk down a bunch of cash without knowing anything about the car?

I don't...

[wacodep]

If your analogy was anywhere near accurate, you'd have a point. But it's not.

Buying a "new car" is not the same as buying a "tool kit".

If you wanted to...

Ak Worm, you've unfortunately overlooked the simple yet unfortunate fact that, for some people, even sending an e-mail message is a huge challenge. ...

[wacodep]

vBulletin is not and was not ever intended to overcome a lack of knowledge.

You can throw money at buying an expensive car, but if you don't have enough sense to realize that you have to...

[wacodep]

"Mis-sold" the suite. LOL. I love the victimization angle. Yet another example of the lack of personal responsibilty and accountibility that is running rampant in today's society.

[wacodep]

As it has already been pointed out, vB is a toolset. It's not a turnkey solution.

If you go to the store and buy a set of wrenches, do you expect to be able to just throw them at the car...

[wacodep]

Yea, I finally got it worked out. Was (mostly) my CC company trying to prevent what they thought was fraud.

[wacodep]

Call your credit card company and make sure that Jelsoft/vBulletin is not blocked or flagged as fraudulent. That's what happened to me with SEVERAL cards using both PayPal and Metacharge. Finally got...

[wacodep]

What do you mean, no callback? Just go pay for the upgrade via the payment portal. Why does someone need to call you back?

[wacodep]

Yes, there is. If you're an active licensee, you get a discount. If you're not, why should YOU get the same discount as someone who IS an active licensee?

Nobody is forcing you to upgrade....

[wacodep]

So who's responsibility is it to keep track of YOUR purchases and subscriptions?

Well, we all know what they say about assuming ...

If your driver's license or license plates...

I've been trying to pay for an upgrade all morning, but NONE of the various payment methods are working.

I've tried various credit cards via Metacharge AND via PayPal - everything is being...
