I think competition is good, and benefits everyone

BTW, Invision 2 now includes a threaded view like vb3's hybrid view

:lol: make an invision skin for vb

funilly enough with my sites final vb3 skin i plan to redesign the usercp to make it cpanel-esqe

If you can get me evidence, I'd like to see it. wBB has been reviewed by the Jelsoft coders, and they confirmed nothing was ripped/stolen.

to the best of my knowledge, alledgedly a lawsuit was made and 'although highly similar the products wern't similar enough to warrant a case'

Well I'll do some lookin at code, since I am an avid wBB Supporter (I work at almost all the english sites). So I'd like to see how true this is.

As well, wBB2.1 is far different from vB.
wBB1.1 I believe had some parts of code that were extremely similar, but this is because it was Burntimes first PHP board, and he needed a guide. But he has gotten much better, so now there is nothing similar between th two.

Who's online and the private message system to name a couple, they may have been around in other boards before they where hacks for ubb 5, I dont re-call seeing them before then. The frist time I saw avatars on a majior board software was a ubb 5 hack also.

Board scripts have some along way scence ubb 5 was considered the best out there.

I used UBB for 2 years, and then switched to vB around 2 and a half years ago. I remember the joy of seeing how every hack I could possibly want was already included. Those were the days!

While IBP is not as powerful as vB (yet), it is a very good free alternative with some good standard features.
