The only thing i compared vBulletin and Ipb is the profile options. You probably donot know about Ipb profiles thats why go and check them. If we are talking about Social Networking Users profiles must be the main focus and their profile must show their contribution to site. Thats why Blog integration must develop , thats why with a tab user created threads , users posts must be integrated.

My site is about literature , philosophy , rock and metal music , the language is turkish

Aw! What an @SS - As a forum Administrator and Member of many many forums using IPB software I surely do know what an IPB profile looks like.

Jacquii.

Nice additions and features in this version, but I am asking does it load the server ??

Where indeed? A lot of those features were deja-vu.

Good point, and it saves me from having to make a decision anytime soon.

I had the same question for myself when VBB updated 3.5.x to 3.6.x...

I upgraded to 3.6 for one reason only: full PM content in the email notifications of PMs. But as it turned out, multi-quote was more useful than I thought it would be, and those two things made up for the overall headache.

No feature is jumping out at me with this one, though. I don't run a giant board with lots of spammers and faux Mods trying to illegally edit posts, and I don't think anyone gives two damns about having a snazzy profile. And since it's a small board I would rather that people actually posted on the board, not chitchat in their profiles.

Would that whole word-cloud, social-networking deal help bring in new members? Then it might be worth it, even though word clouds annoy the hell out of me. Word Clutter would be a better name for it.

Only a question, and I apologize if I wrong section.
Does 3.7 release of vBulletin support multiple options vbCode?

[Shaliza]

I don't get why people are complaining about the social group. I would rather see vB NOT get clogged up. If you want all the extra stuff, download a mod. Why are you trying to act like vB is myspace?

[s0lidgr0und]

How long do these upgrades typically stay in beta?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

That depends on how things are running. Public beta will probably not start until all found issues on the vB.com test run are resolved.

[s0lidgr0und]

Cool.

Thank you.

[Phooey]

Wow, that looks great. I can't wait!
