Why not boost awareness of vBulletin by making a very watered-down version of vBulletin 2 available for free? phpBB and IPB did it, and there are probably more InvisionFree and Forumer forums out there than vBulletin ones. It was rubbished in this thread, but it's achieving nothing by rusting in the corner. When was the last time vB actually updated 2.x?

vBForFree.com or something? It would make members see that they are getting this great product for free, yet they know that for 80 dollars out of their pocket, they can get the whole version.

Please consider it. I wouldn't ever use it, but the majority of forumers (wannabe Admins, lets say) aren't even old enough to have a PayPal account.

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