Unfortunately for users that depend on those mod features, they either need to find someone who can fix/make it work with the current VB4 or go without OR upgrade to VB5. Again driving VB5 sales.

Trying to move the goalposts is unbecoming. You weren't addressing the OP when you asked me to clarify my statement, which I did in fact, do. Features do not drive v5 sales. "Upgrading" to 5 from 4 isn't a new license.

Pretending all this stuff is new doesn't make it so. vBulletin has never added features to prior versions once the new versions are released. Why would they?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
