Well, this is not fair Xenforo Vs IB and we are in the middle.

That is what happen, i like Xenforo but i can't buy it now at this stage and all i get when i went there, well the users are friendly and helpful, that is an A+ and the staff too and that is where IB and VB are making the mistake.

IB and VB should enhance VB 4.x and add more and better features, and the sales will be going up for sure. VB 5.x will need at least around 2 years of development to reach the stable level and having all the default features of vb 4.x, that is my take on it.

But then again, i am not into joining bandwagons and although i was asked by several to make a migration to Xenforo form VB, it just wouldn't work well for me. There so many default vb features that Xenforo don't have at all.

I am simply going to use what is good, and feature rich and Vbulletin is reach in features more then Xenforo. What i don't like is the coders who joined the bandwagon and followed Xenforo, have discontinued making plugins for VB and not even selling them. It is like they have taken a moral stance but have they also thought about vb customers who are welling to buy their plugin for vb and now they miss it?

What they are doing, isn't going to force many vb customers to make the switch to Xenforo, just for the sake of downloading their plugin or buying them. They should really release them for both Xenforo and Vbulletin and if they sell them on Xenforo, why not sell them on Vbulletin as well. After all, that is where they received their fame, from vb customers.
