They should not be calling newer versions of vBulletin "upgrades". In many cases you have to uninstall and then reinstall so much that it's like buying an entirely new product and starting at the beginning all over again.
I have 4.2 and I like it but that's because that's the version I started out with. I refuse to "upgrade" to 5.x because I , like many other site ops, have installed many mods from this site and most of these mods will not work with 5.x so it's like dismantling my site and starting over. What advantages could 5.x possibly give me to want me to toss all the time and effort I've gone thru just to "upgrade" to a newer version?
