I have never put a mod on my forum yet, I'm actually scared that I'll mess things up. My concern is that vBulletin has frequent upgrades and I'm kind of paranoid about putting mods into my forum as I'm not sure if it will cause a disaster when upgrading.

Also, I've never upgraded my vBulletin since I got it... I'm on 3.6.8 and waiting for 3.7 Gold before I do anything.

I want to put FlashChat onto my system once 3.7 Gold comes out or.. Do I have to wait? That's my main question... once I put mods on my system, will I be stuck with the current version of vBulletin as upgrading with mods will cause major problems?

If anyone could give me advice, links to threads to help clear up my confusion, give me steps on what would work for me for installing a chat system like flashchat and upgrading advice I would be very grateful.
