Products are supposed to improve over time, not become worse.

This whole thing is about people joining the Bandwagon. I personal like VB, and comparing it to Xenforo, Xenforo wasn't appealing to me other than liking their SEO aspect, but it will take few years to reach the level of vb 4.x functions, time will tell i guess.

I also don't like the redactor editor they are using. Xenforo is good for those looking for easy, simple software to use. But if i am looking for feature rich forum type, I'd go with VB or IBP but i personally don't like IPB, i like their gallery though!
