Page's Source Code

This is a double post... I ask if there is a way to download the source code of the site. Since I couldn't find I think there might not be so I Suggest that people can download the source and try to make it better.

I mean... this is a forum about the major Open Source software in the whole world!!! why not making it also an open source site???

Like counter.li.org that has the scripts avaiable to all adms.

Just a thought.

If you go to www.vbulletin.com which this site is based off of, it should explain why the source is not available for everyone.

Ok, my network connection is a little bit slow right now... I think someone is transferring the images database we have (we share all the images we download so we don't download them twice... We are very radical family). however I entered the site and If I understood correctly it's a paid suit. I see why it's so user firendly.

Than you.

What does user friendliness have to do with releasing the source code ? You have to think, this site was around way before most forum or BBS boards were being given away for free.

And I find this site very easy and friendly, just because it doesn't give you the source code doesn't mean otherwise IMO.

Just a thought.

It was just a joke. I meant that this sita was too user friendly referring to Windows and that THAT was the reason you didn't give away the source code.

You should add a smilie or something when making jokes that come off as being serious, it helps us in understanding that you mean well or joking for that matter..
