I have a couple of vbulletin 3.8x owned licences. Some are expired already, some will expire later in 2010. I do not plan to upgrade to vb4. I just keep all will version 3.8x and that's it.
What happens after the expiration of my last active 3.8x licence in 2010? Do I still have afterwards access to vbulletin.org and all its Mods?
You (Owned License holders) will continue to have access to vBulletin.org as long as you hold a valid license (active or otherwise). Those who hold Leased Licenses, however, will lose access after their licenses expire.
I wonder if everyone thinks the same we'll see a quick update to vB 4.2 and cause 3.8.4 to go to EOL and no support. Hopefully lots of people are upgrading to vB 4.0 and it wont be an issue. my vB 3.8.4 site is heavily modded and I cant upgrade without spending thousands... wish they had an option to pay for security patches in perpetuity. Scary that 100% Im getting hacked when this version gets EOL'd...
