Yea I agree with this too.
I'm personally not a big fan of vB5 anyways. It made the vBulletin.com forum very laggy for me. All the flash and drop downs and things flying everywhere, I'm not a fan of it. |

Generally, I would say "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" is one of the worst all around philosophies for anything, anywhere, ever. But in this case, the addendum would be "and you don't have the time." The site is working and doesn't really have a downside to keeping it the way it is, AND there do not appear to be the appropriate resources (e.g. time) to make such an elaborate transition. So, in this case, I can see where they're coming from.

Agreed.

But honestly Paul - What do you think would happen if the bulk of vBulletin customers were to say that? "My site ain't broke, so there's no need to "fix" it to the broken vB-anything-above-3.8.x..." vBulletin the software would have ceased to exist is what would happen. Anyway... Moving on.... J. |

I agree with "if it ain't broke, don't fix it", but I interpret it less literally to mean "don't make changes unless you understand the costs vs. benefits". If you take it that way, I think we all agree.
Applying that to vbulletin.org, obviously some people are of the opinion that it would be worth the costs to upgrade vbulletin.org. But the people who actually have to pay for it don't feel that way. In the absence of actual data to support the argument, it's just a difference of opinion. |

vB.org is not the place for rants about vB5. If you want to do that, feel free to do so elsewhere. |

I am not the bulk of vb customers, but I am one. I bought a vB3 license, updated it for several years, and I'm happy with my 3.8 site. It gives me and my users all we need. I can't say that there is anything in any more recent version that we *need* on my site. So, vB3.8 is where I will keep my site. (Of course, it's heavily modified and so the things I really need are nothing that will every be offered in the default software anyway.)

But maybe before any radical moves like this ask people what they want by a poll cause for example I myself don't want any changes and I bet it would only complicate things.
