It depends on what. I wouldn't dare to let Rick loose on my board to debug some stuff, but there are mods and there are mods.

Just reply as needed and if the answer is too technical just ask and let the poster know you're not clear of what they mean and I'm sure most will try to reword it for you.

That's why I always test things a 2nd time with a stock version I keep online when I report bugs.

And now what really really ticks me off is me having to say you are right and I am wrong... laugh

I believe any changes to styles, language files (translations) and template files does not invalidate support here, unless that has changed in recent years. It's changes to the *.php scripts that make your forum less "support-y", but even then I know Rick goes above and beyond in helping sites operate as they should.

Modifications to styles .css files, template .tpl files and language files could be freely shared here and at UBBDev.com unless that's changed since 7.x

When the garbage truck comes they drop half of it in the street and I shred most of my paper documents. Then they sling the can in one direction and leave the lid on the road.
Sometimes I come home the can is in the neighbors yard, The lid has been run over by several cars and shredded paper and trash is everywhere. Or my neighbors trash in in my yard.
That's what really ticks me off!

I'd love some validation on the templates; styles and language files however I don't really see a problem with (since we provide both here lol)...

When we have a better theme system in place I can totally see templates...
