I never personally got all the complaints of having to pay for an upgrade and what not, are people really that stingy they can't afford to? Or is it because people take terms of service as permanent and non changeable?

I recently tinkered with IPB 3.0 and like how it performs, feels and then I went into the template system. Hmmmm, suffice to say I closed it down after that. I'm sure I can easily style for the ipb software but I am not willing to adapt.

I voted IpB 3 because I'm not taking this poll seriously.

I totally agree with Shelley. IPB is definitely superior to VB in regards to their visual styles & permission system. VB settings & permission system is such a mess.... so many items in so many places with so much overlap. Wish they streamline the system like IPB or Drupal. But overall, VB is still better than IPB.

I come over from PHPBB2/3. When I was hunting for new forum software IPB wasn't on the radar. I will admit, lately I've been snooping, played w/the demo a bit. Probably because of all the 4.0 talk, I was interested to see what the other companies are up to.
One of the best things I like about vB is the community, it's second to none (imo) and just so long as that stays unchanged and the software remains affordable I don't care about vB 4.0, 5.0 or vB 331/3 I will continue to be a customer, member, and supporter.

No clue!

2 reasons:

1. I've never used IPB 3.0
2. I'm permanently banned from purchasing licenses or using IPB.
