It's a suggestion, nobody is pushing anybody. I agree that it would be nice if vBorg would upgrade to 3.5.0 stable, now that it is out. But it is always up to the staff.

Whats the big deal anyways. Give them a few weeks or so. I personaly think its stupid to upgrade a large board ASAP. Unless there are sercuity loops.

Yeah, let xenon port his hacks to 3.5 first so I can upgrade my smaller board first.
Seriously, ;) I'm scheduled out now till the end of Oct before I can upgrade.

As the Guiness advert says, Good things come to those who wait ;)

I would say that it is in everyone's best interest if the functionality of this site was upgraded in one swoop. That means style updates, code updates and new functionality installed. Then tested vigorously and finally you upgrade. vBulletin.com was easy to upgrade. It runs off of CVS and doesn't have any code modifications. On a larger site with code modifications, you don't rush into upgrades just because they are the latest and greatest.

No one tells anyone else when to upgrade their site, so why should vborg be any different? Please let them use their own good judgment to do what they feel is best for their own site. Does anyone remember the story about the rabbit and the hare? I'm sure we can all be a little more patient while they pull their act together and get all of their ducks in a row. Mmmm... duck. Sounds like dinner :)

I had my board tested on a test forum before goign to live and I still ran into issues o_O

We have a testboard which is upgraded already.

Most vb.org hacks are working already, just 2 very important ones are not 100% finished yet.
After these two hacks are done, we will upgrade vbulletin.org

apart from some very small unimportant hacks you won't miss any features, but see some new ones ;)

Very cool!

Any chance these will be made public? Or, like a Ferrari in a showroom, will we only be allowed to visit here and drool over them; never possessing them?

Edit: PS I like the style being listed in postbit on here. Is there any chance this hack will be released? I have found one but it seems to add a query everytime showthread.php is called, and hoped that your one might function differently.

hmm..interesting..i may sound dumb but can you add hacks etc to a forum and then transfer the current db..wouldn't those hacks have to be redone?

kindly let me know..i have been on the hold for this reason..
