I believe that it should go both ways as far as bashing or fact finding for v3arcade and ibProArcade. It was announced by John that v3 had this in it. Unless someone can say for a fact citing example, code, whatever where it is a problem, then it should not be made an arguement for one or the other. For that matter, you may as well say that because vBulletin software talks to the Jelsoft servers that it is only inviting problems and complaints.

Quite honestly, I think what John is doing may be the more author-friendly (sure-fired legal) approach for approved games and a user-friendly approach for those that want a game all they have to do is get it from the "approved" list and the AdminCP grabs it from John and installs it. That will not stop others from converting games for it. I have not viewed either arcade nor their code, so I cannot say I like either new version yet. Yes, I chose v3 before, but that does not mean I would pick it now over ibPro until I see them for myself.

Before anyone gets off to say this is a bash or starts the flames, I am looking for facts, not opinions. If someone says that something is happening, I would like to see the proof of it. I wonder if some of those (honestly) are going off of what has been stated and working off of assumption or they have seen it for themselves by installing and viewing the arcade code. I will be downloading ibProArcade and v3arcade tonight and will do my own comparisons. Although you were quoted, the above comment was not directed at you, Boofo.
