I checked the FAQ and did not see this answered... so here goes.

Previously, vb.com used a running contract model.. you had to be licensed with vb.com to have access to d/l stuff from vb.org

But with vb's new 'buy one release, and its yours' pricing model - the only running state is paying for technical support - we have a perpetual license for the major version we buy.

What will vb.org follow for it's member access levels?

What about vb3.x users who have a valid vb4.x license via their previous license, but did not buy vb4.0 explictly?

Thx

vb.org gets the license status from vb.com. If vb.com says you are licensed, then you show up as licensed here on vb.org. There are no different 'levels' of access for licensed users.

As long as you have a valid license to use vBulletin you will have access to all content on vBulletin.org.
