Ditto.
BTW - howdy hi Girlie! Hope you are doing well :)

As with this new 3.8.5 version, it looks like they want to force you to upgrade to vB 4. Each release is progressivly getting worse.

forumhome url function is now broken with the 3.8.5 release and the style compare, amongst other things, and yet they tend to not fix these issues to making 3.8.x series a great product.

I made the jump to vb4 recently and it was a large mistake :(

Why?

vb3.8 was pretty darn good. vB4 on the other hand needs some work. The stylevars are also pretty bad.

Totally understood - I have a few guesses as to why the template/stylevar system was so radically changed - but I'll keep them to myself LOL :P -- I'm not really excited about upgrading any of my sites to the 4.x series -- I'm not even sure if I will EVER - so it's interesting to see your opinion ;)

Thanks,

Jacquii.

I am new and i am just starting out but i have been a bit concern about the script . there is so much to the site, today i was looking at some other script options. i really don't have any members yet, and i am at 4.2 pl1 / . but this would be a good time ever to change. all the nigh mares i heard i think is on the updateing from 3.8 to 4.2 . but the question is about right now at the start. i am interested a Little bit more about people operating 4.2. thanks if anybody could help me out. But i have to admit the cms on 4 is really a nice feature. that to me a while to figure that one out but i was looking at more of a social networking script so it seem that VB is heading into that area not just a Forum software anymore but you just can't beat the mods here. good work to all. If you look a other packages you get a simple script to start then it is on the average $50 per addon. where VB has it all this is he hard thing.:confused:
