imo if your havent been playing with vB3 since its realease your going to have alot to lern its taken me from beta 3 to beta 7 to learns the ins and outs of the board plus access all the relly cool features and toy around with the code :)

Once you start using vb3 it becomes harder and harder to move back to vb2!

I will stick with vb2.3 for my big sites, but I will convert my small sites eventually. I acually installed vb3 on a new forum that is designed to get the political and other debates out of my other forums and I must say, IT IS NICE.. http://www.thewaterfountain.com/forums

Im using vB3 now as i just started a new forum. Its alot different to vB2 in all aspects and some can seem daunting especially to people who dont know PHP or understand the new template scheme etc.

But i realised the only way to learn is to install one and get used to it so thats why im using it for my new forum, Only problem is having to now do all of the php edits again when i upgrade (IF i upgrade)

I'm still going to install a vB2 as a test board for support purposes :p

*raises hand*

For about another 6 months at least :)

I'll be sticking with vB2 until at the very least vB3 goes final..
Even then, I'd rather wait until the Arcade and Journal mods are ported to vB3.

I haven't really liked the new admin panel or the styles used for vB3 since it was released.. When I do upgrade, I'll be making it look much like a vB2 in layout.

I won't be upgrading until 3.0.2 at a bare minimum for security reasons. My board is running and looking good at the moment with no load problems, so there's no incentive for me.

actually itd be to your benefit to switch now, the large the site gets the harder it will be to upgrade and Jelsoft will eventually discontinue the vB2 serries along with support id imagine :)

It's true. My board grew by 10,000 members since I upgraded from 2.3.2 to Beta 3 about 6 months or so ago. :) By the time vB3 turns Gold, who knows.

and trying to Convert it now would be worse >.< i did a semi large board upgrade it took me an hour to reindex and update everything i couldnt imagin doing a LARGE board
