    Let me explain it to you in language that even kindergartener can understand;

    According to you;
    To which, my question is this;
    Nowhere did in any of your replies where you explain what the "dirt" or "betrayal" suppose to means.
    You only said;
    But that didn't answer the questions.

    Nor can you refute me where I corrected your "spouting off";
    To which I pointed out that;
    If the above doesn't penetrate into your skull, then I'm not sure that you even speak English.

    I am sure Trevor signed an agreement , you should consider that when asking a question. You don't want to ask questions he can't answer. I also doubt he will say anything that we don't know already because of the agreement...

    I find it insulting for you to put words in to our mouths. I see members asking legitimate questions expecting reasonable answers.
    I do not see anyone trying to put words into his mouth or expecting him to do anything wrong on any level.

    As Brandon has asked him, I am sure he is a responsible person and would never "betray " anything as you are indicating.

    Unfortunately it seems that the members who work for VB/IB are rapidly losing it.

    Yes, we all understand that trying to defend the management without their support is hard and in some ways you guys are between the rock and the hard place.
    The opportunity to shall we say make amends and solidify your standing in the community seems to be escaping you, as, instead of doing the right thing by your customers you are insulting and defaming them.

    Why you consider this action will endure you to anyone is beyond me.

    As the customers and members have tried unsuccessfully to help VB/IB to overcome the problems by voicing their genuine opinions. all it has achieved is bannings , removal of posts , receiving insulting and sometimes sarcastic comments.
    Then the next logical step is to voice our disgust on other forums in public and in what could be termed dark humour.

    It is now getting to a point where it would be very hard, if not impossible for the VB/IB supporters to redeem themselves, assuming of course that they have the guts and intelligence to do so. Unfortunately I have seen very little of this.

    As for your future employment and prospects I see very little cause for cheer. You are rapidly putting in jeopardy the expectation of another employer hiring you, if he checks and sees what a disaster you have perpetrated on your customers.

    Please take note of the meaning of the word "if".

    In fact due to your repeated abusive posts you can join the others on the excellent and highly effective XF ignore list.

    Good day.

    Like I said, runs away when questions need an honest answer.

    So, questions for Trevor ...

    If afforded the opportunity would you consider working for another forum software developer?
    Is there a non-competition agreement in place which would preclude you from working for a competitor?
    If you were the project manager for vBulletin 5, what the five things you would do or changes you would make?

    1. Only comparing forum software (no cms, gallery, recource manager etc.) what do you think is the best software IPS, Xenforo, WBB, vBulletin 4 or vBulletin 5 . Can you list them from good to bad.
    2. Can you explain why you listed them in this order.
    3. When you worked for vBulletin where you taken seriously when you talked about ideas, features and improvements. Also when there where issues was you taken serious.
    4. Do you think that websites need to pay more attention to software what they use then lets say 5 years ago.

    So, question for @Brandon; when will the interview take place?

    Also, can I get the active admin green label removed from under my avatar?
    As of currently, I'm not doing any admin related thing.
    For now, I'm just a vBulletin customer.

    If you could get Bob Brisco and Joe Rosenblum to publicly answer five customer questions, which five would they be?

    What were your feelings about being cut as Ib staff? Do you know why they picked you?
    How did you end up flying planes?
    If you were directing vBulletin, what 3 main things would you change or do differently?
    Are you a family man?
    While supporting customers, what do you think is your most important responsibility, as a support staff member?
    What is your actual occupation, learned trade or craft?
    What do you think are your best characteristics as a person?
    What are your weakest?

    Yes, that's really the question but if asked that way we would get the same non-answer we are getting now.

    Aren't there already plenty of questions?

    By the way, how about an interview with Steve Machols?
    Any chance for that happening?
