vB2 archive -- but not vB3. I'm sure there are still loads of people that use it.

Yes, and 3.0 as well, however, I can imagine that coded forums on 3.x don't upgrade that quickly. On the other hand, not offering 3.0 mods pushes them into the next generation.

Ditch vB2. I don't care if people are still using it - I don't pay for my license so mods who should be developing my product have to waste time supporting a dinosaur. Yes I understand that some sites will lose features if they upgrade, but you know what... Tough luck! They've had years to upgrade - nomatter which hack they have I'm sure they could pay for a 3.5 conversion - they should take on that cost if they really need the solution. Time for the 2 series to go.

Uh, we're talking about archiving vB2 on vb.org, remember? Tell me, which vB.org moderators developed your product? And which of them are "wasting time" on us poor beknighted fools still using one of the best community software solutions ever created? Personally, I haven't been helped by any of the vB.org moderators here in a vB2 thread for years, and I haven't exactly seen them bustling around in that area. So exactly how they're "wasting time" is a mystery.

No, VB2 isn't a dinosaur. It's an extremely powerful product that people paid good money for ... the same cost as VB3, in fact. I pay my $30 annual fee for support along with the rest of you. Why on earth should supporting those who purchased a product that still remains perfectly functional be considered "wasting time"?

Jesus. I just don't understand people who get hostile over stuff that's no skin off their ass. Don't like seeing vB2 forums? Hide 'em.

I visit so many vb 3.0 and 2.x boards so for those, they should stay.

I use VB 3.X, and have no use using 2.X on my site. However, that is me. There are plenty of people who are using VB 2, so why should I take away their rights for the same things I enjoy?

I say keep it until we know noone will use it.

So will it be removed?

You can exclude catagories via:

Quick Links -> Edit Options -> Exclude Catagories -> Check the catagories you do not wish to appear.

Also with the new layout it really isn't needed...

Closing this thread as it is old.
