******* add-on cannot be uninstalled

[TJA]

We must to update our client library to fit with new privacy policies. Therefore, we need at least 1 week to solve it and upgrade all our products.

Will you also be deleting any data that you have collected from unsuspecting customers thus far?

 

[Forsaken]

If there was any collection of user data he is breaking privacy laws in quite a few countries.

I don't remember if it was ******* (80-90% sure) but didn't he also release a style by someone on vBulletin as his own several years ago? I haven't been able to find the thread, but I remember the original creator confronting ******* (or the other developer if I'm wrong) about it.

That, and just the general lack of quality is a big reason as to why I don't touch his add-ons.

Any update yet on this announcement for extending existing customers before Aug 1st to 1 year as well?

Also, any news?

That is incorrect.. As https://xenforo.com/community/resources/*******-credits-resource-integration.2394/ First Release: Oct 2, 2013. Wasn't even released til Oct 2013, so how could I have purchased in April 2013?

Same thing with https://xenforo.com/community/resources/*******-location-bbcode.2393/ First Release: Oct 2, 2013.

So your records have to be incorrect about when I purchased both addons. My Lifetime Credits Premium also shows Start Date: Oct 1, 2013 and I purchased all three add-ons at the same time.



Resource Manager itself wasn't even released til March 26th https://xenforo.com/community/threads/resource-manager-availability-and-24-hour-sale.45903/

@Mike Edge

Sorry about my mistake. You purchased at Oct 1, 2013 and expired at Apr 1, 2014 (6 months). We extended subscriptions for you.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused.

No answer on this yet?

Surely he will, but how will people know for sure if it has really been deleted?

Nobody will ever know for sure. If and when he announces all data collected has been deleted it'll be a matter of taking his word for it. It'll be up to each specific person what they believe but I may think this will be a case of damned if you do damned if you don't type situation for ******* if this escalates with people having doubt.

This has been a very educational thread. I really appreciate Mike for starting a discussion about it.

As this is the most recent thread discussing add-ons and developers and acceptable practices, this seems like a good place to post this.

https://xenforo.com/community/help/resource-guidelines/

Please don't use this thread to discuss the new guidelines, there will be a thread available for that soon.

 

[Chris D]

Much needed, I think.

Well done guys!

Please wait for the new dedicated thread before asking questions/discussing the new guidelines.

This is the first time I see this thread.
I have many ******* addons installed in my forum, and feel really bad about all this.
I need a honest opinion: should I remove them to protect my forum?

 

[Chris D]

I believe ******* has taken the appropriate action to ensure these issues don't happen again. All of his add-ons should now comply with XenForo's resource guidelines.
