You mean like a like system or working notifications? *lol*

For Xenforo, they need at least 3 years to have all the features that vb has, bug free as well,
You're obviously confused. It is vB that needs three years after every release to get their versions at least half way usable (I'm not saying bug free, just look at the vB4-tracker).

For ex, i don't need to buy the bookmark of topics when vb has already a complete topic subscription system to subscribe to topics/threads http://xenforo.com/community/resources/bookmarks.272/
Thanks for proving that you just have no idea what you're talking about. vB does not have a bookmarking system, it has a subscription system (which xF has, too). In fact, there is a bookamarks addon for vB

That is one example out of many.
And of the many you choose the single one that did not fit, huh?

Quote:
Why should i buy something
No one is asking you to. That's entirely your choice, just as it is mine.

Quote:
that is missing but available on VB core features. So many of vb default features XF don't have, Xenforo software will cost me if i want to cover every vb default feature that is missing. It doesn't make any sense.
It doesn't have to make sense, and you don't have to buy it if you don't want to.

Quote:
At the end of the day, truth be told VB is better than Xenforo at the moment and that is the cloudy truth, the hype about XF and joining the bandwagon is foreshadowing these facts.
You're entitled to your opinion, just like everyone else. Problem is: Everyone else's arguments are "joining a bandwagon" and "speculation", while you yourself only present "the truth" and "facts" (poorly researched and understood, at that, see above).

Quote:
And when i say better i am referring to vb 4.x. It will take few years for vb 5.x to become more stable and feature rich and only then we can compare and contrast between VB 5.x and Xenforo.
And, hm, it does not make you think twice at all that it takes new vB releases three years to get usable? And I'm not talking missing features. I'm talking usable at all.

Quote:
The one thing i hate about VB though is how ravage they keep changing the system and core coding that it forces me to lose my current addon and custom skins, and I would need to invest several times to get them back. That is not fun especially when support gets discontinued.
Ah. Now, you see. You said yourself in the past that you had no idea of code quality. But obviously you experience what happens when code is poor and design is without thought.
