Everyone seems focused on what is missing with Xenforo...the blogs, the galleries, etc...but bottom line...isn't a FORUM suppose to be about a place to read and write posts?

And it is doing it extremely well. At an average of over 1000 posts a day for a forum just at two months old...how did your forums do at that point in time?

To be honest, some of you sound like children running home to mama to complain about how the big bad bully treated you so badly.

How many posts would they have had if there weren't posts about it on here and vbulletin.com?

Seems it's a two way street, I know we have them down here in the south so don't try the dirt road game with the rest of us

Due to who is behind it, not what it is.

It would have had neither the hype or popularity had two unknown people been coding it.

I expect vbulletin.com probably took off in a similar way 10 years ago.

Yes it did. Only difference was the developer was an unknown who created what UBB users craved. He happened to use UBB for his site and when it didn't scale he created vbulletin. Interestingly enough he didn't release until it was ready and didn't try to sell a beta product.
