Yep, I still use vb 2. Only for a few more days, admittedly, but still. Vb2 has been chugging along and was perfectly satisfactory for my smallish/mediumish-sized community. I have been very reluctant to change since it's been hacked pretty heavily with some things that are STILL not available for vb3 (interactive stories, most of all). Also, I've been too busy to update everything.

All this said, I'm finally making the leap to the latest version, because I know it's more powerful and the plugin system is sexier than anything I've ever seen (with certain exceptions!).

Really, it's no skin off anyone's nose to keep v2 topics here. If for no other reason, because Jelsoft supports v2. But there are other reasons: some hacks were never ported, and could give coders some ideas; most importantly, there ARE some of us lingering v2 users who need hacking and other customization advice.

Why on earth are many v3 users so callously anxious to deny even the few remaining vb2 users a useful resource? The forums collapse for the very purpose of letting folks ignore stuff they don't need/want to see. It's not taking anything away from the community -- to the contrary, it's a helpful reminder of just how amazing a system vBulletin is, that even older versions can remain powerful, flexible and functional community solutions.

Your designs are state of the art. I can see why you wouldn't change but believe me 3.5 will add Java, Ajax and much, much more... you think it's good now....... 2.0 is so, so far beind....... Archive and upgrade....
