Well that means you have to pay for it now. They probably had what's called a "Sponsored Version", where it was free but there was a banner or ad everytime you opened it. Looks like they don't do that anymore.

I think it mean that you or the board has to pay for spellcheck service or something.

Right - its been gone for awhile now when the 3rd party providing it decided to start to charge. Since you all dont use it - and those that need it can type thier posts in word first, we opted to discontinue it...

the bad part is I cant find a way to turn it off inthe forum settings - I will see if I can get the Vbulletin guru at delaware.net to take the link off.
