Its been over a year now so when does the fix come? Dude, I'm sorry but there is NO WAY I'd run something extremely buggy if I could help it with a promise of we will fix everything.

I think the distinction people miss here is the one between the average vB.org user (or vB.com, or TAZ or any of those plances) and the remaining admins who probably make up the majority. I don't really think the majority of people running vBulletin are really all that involved with this, or many admin communities. They might come in, post about a problem, download a few mods, and never be heard from again. Meaning, regardless of how many bugs you know are in there, it's never going to be an issue for these admins who mostly use vBulletin stock. And anything they don't like, they disable. Factor in those people who have no idea what vB was like "before", because they're new forum admins, and you have quite a few people who simply never consider the bugs an issue. Basically, the road is full of potholes. But I never drive far enough from home to hit any of them.
