Default Is it worth upgrading this time

just wondering now cuz like i got 80+ hacks installed and it took a humongous time to update last time due to the hacks installed
is it worth updating from vb 2.30 rc3 to version 2.31 ?
because i haven't really found anything wrong with it

Yes. There is a XSS security exploit that may allow hackers access into your forums. It's obscure, but it's a security loophole.

Upgrading for me is going to be hell. At least now i'm equipped with some knowledge to fix those nasty parse errors

I've never used Araxis Merge but I've used Beyond Compare and it is very good.

The hard part of the updating is if you have hacks installed. No hacks = no Hassle.

Hacks = Hell as there's 58 files that aren't the same. Good luck.
