I had to upgrade from 3.8 and decided to go for 5.0. Couldnt retrieve anything from the past database, so had to start a new forum. The forum did badly compared to 3.6, no new members signed up, if they did they didnt post. Forum was dead. Couple of months later, decided to downgrade to 4.2.2 and its slowly picking up again.

I've stuck with 4.2.2 and I tell my clients to do the same. My main concern is the loss of mods and the amount of work involved customizing things. I am not familiar with it enough to know of many bugs or problems but I have also read many negative reviews.

As for starting a new forum it is not surprising that you would lose traffic, etc. The hardest part is getting started but I doubt this had anything to do with what version of Vbulletin you were using. |

When vb5 was installed I sent out an email to every member that was registered on the forum, and although the regulars signed up, they didnt want to post. Forum was pretty much dead for a couple of months. I then decided to downgrade to 4.2.2 and fresh install again, sent out another email, and have have more registrations and posts on the forum. |
