Apply the ages old and proven adage: If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Hey Max, I know you are like an anti 4.2er..lol but the fact is this is not really an issue with 4.2 itself. The issue is that there many, many mods that were made for 3.8 and were not removed before upgrading. Ofcourse these mods are not going to work and are going to cause problems with the site itself and with newer mods.

The compelling reason to upgrade is all the added new features that 4.2 has over 3.8 not to mention the latest 4.2.2 will work well with php5.4. Not to bash 3.8 but it is like comparing an Xbox 360 to an Xbox One.
