what i see, and what i tried to avoid lately, is the reaction of old members that are bored by all these newbies asking questions all over again... they start flaming each time someone create a thread in the wrong place - i know i've done it myself...

point is that these members - and i received a lot of pm about this, are bored of the innaction of some moderators that wait days to move threads that spoil their forums... sometimes i even see applauses from some members that are happy that a thread is deleted because OT...

the search engien is a trash, we all know that, but each time someone try to find something and there is no result, he:
1- post a request in the releases
2- post a request answered already in the request forum
3- post a complaint in the Feedbacks telling the search is a mess...

... i think that 50% of the convivial problems will be solved when the 3.5 version of vb.org will be set and working... and that trash of search engine fixed...

so this is Public Relations only...

and yes, i think there was hundreds of complaints about upgrading this board, it's the first time that it goes that far, and for a reason.. this is not only for upgrading and have the real upt-date version, but to fix horrors like the search engine... and some other lame complaints.

if you can't deal with a non-upgraded board, why continue visiting here until it's done? why continue spoiling discussions like this one to tell what all know?!

Public Relations / Public Communications is not always the best in any forum or community... there are some leaks here like everywhere else... so be patient, or simply do something else during the wait...

-- you can even try to overtake the board, you will have a lot of time to do it, without talking about the search engine!
