None. In the end, like many, you will likely end up disappointed with VB 5. At this rate you won't see VB 6 until 2030, if at all.

The software is really not all that great and is lacking in many respects in compared to other forum software. Many are leaving VB all together. Developers and those building forums. It's an option, just not a good one all around. I tried it again recently after not trying it in a few years. It's still a steaming pile.

Many have also lost members after upgrading to VB 5. So yeah. VB is dying a slow death. Unfortunately it's not what it used to be that's for sure with no good end in sight. Heck, Internet Brands own forums haven't even upgraded to VB 5 and they own VB. What does that tell you about how they feel about it and their confidence in it? LOL

And I mean, not even VB.org has moved from the old VB 3.8 days. So yeah. It seems like many with VB 3 and even 4 are in no hurry or mood to be bothered to upgrade to VB5. And keep in mind. If you ever move to a different forum software there is no way back to VB 5 without paying for it from someone. VB really is a dead monster unfortunately. Hope for it dwindles every day.
