vBulletin's template system is miles behind others. It's nowhere near the best one...

vBulletin upped their prices during the 'Credit Crunch', I'm sure they will be losing many more customers during this time.

where are the facts though to say that less people are using vbulletin.
Have jelsoft released these figures because i dont know how else u would know.
If u are basing it on downloads (installs from this board) then that is not a true way.Like people have said there are other sources to get hacks from and they are more freely available or u could look at it another way - people aint modding their boards as much.

He's basing if off the number of installs for mods for different versions. In other words, any of these could also account for the figures:
  1. Your latest version of the mod is slightly worse than the last one.
  2. Less people are using 3.8 because it's in beta.
  3. Less people are using 3.7
  4. People aren't modifying their forums as much as most features are built in.
  5. People are getting the modifications elsewhere
  6. More people learnt to program/code and are making their own modifications
  7. Less people are clicking the install button (like myself, I've probably only marked like 5 mods here as installed other than those I've actually released).
  8. People are still using the older version with the newer forum version.
  9. People clicked install then clicking uninstall without actually uninstalling the modification.
  10. People installed it and simply uninstalled it again for some reason.

We're not saying that atall. He is just asking a question.

hows the vb coders crew customer numbers, did you see a drop?
also, I wanted to know if people saw a decrease in users logged on vb.com forums, as I did but not sure of it.

im just wondering, vb having more or less customers wont affect my life.

I'll tell you one thing, the number of active posts on this forum doesn't seem to have decreased any.

  1. Can it be?It's the same mod just for a different vB version
  2. We are talking about 3.6 and 3.7
  3. Well from so what I have seen so far this is definitely not true
  4. True but most of the features found here are not yet implemented
  5. True
  6. Ah I have to disagree with this.Some did but still most didn't
  7. Absolutely true
  8. True as well
  9. Not likely :S
  10. Might be
