I Plan To Upgrade Now.. I've Heard Good Things About vB3.. So, I Might Upgrade.. Looks LIke Everyone Else Is.. vB3 Is GOnna Blow 2 Out Of The Water

Shinra moved away from vb2 a little over a week ago.
It was my decision to do so as I couldn't stand how horribly Palmer had hacked in all of these features, we were running vb2.0.3 hacked up to oblivion, and eventually most of those features stopped working and then getting anything more than the usual done was a dificult task.

So I figured instead of fix the bugs, why not work on upgrading shinra.
you guys got a few bugs in your upgrade scripts that I had to fix ;)

so um yeah, if you do plan on upgrading to vb3, make sure you copy your forum to a secure location, and try upgrading it on your own if you run a version as old as mine.
otherwise you're going to get boned during the vb3 upgrade scripts.

Well I'm on RC4 at the moment in a private testing phase, still keeping 2.3.4 as public. Will get rid of that later. vB3 is really nice, I gotta admit.

MY POINT EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!

Why do you hate somthing that is more powerfull?

It may be more powerful, but only due to the phrase and if condition system. Structurally the design is poorly implemented for anyone wishing to modify their board in a major way :)

If you only knew dean :)

you see, someone is on my side!!!!

if there was a way to convert my skins and have a admin panel i like then id get vb3 in a sec

I remember one time when all "old school VB2" coders used to think VB3 is really bloated. :D

You can convert your skins, YOU just need to DO it. :) its hard work

i got vb3 took me ages of work to get my design working properly and i'm having to redo some hacks so they work again, i wish {firstaltcolor} etc still worked its taken me ages to figure out the css :S :P

try class="alt1" :)

yeah i found that out eventually, i just takes ages to change the stuff around :p
