Until Jelsoft stops actively updating the 2.x series (which does include bug and security updates ), it shouldn't be "thrown out the door"...

Condensing all the threads into one forum, and disabling new threads in that forum would be a good idea - Allow replies to be made to the threads, but other than that I can't see why we would want to totally archive vB2.... Yet...

I think most forums that are on v2.x today are unlikley to be pro active vb hack users.

I also think you will get a good idea altho not entirely accurate as not evryone sees polls how many here still use v2.

I think Chris M has the best option which is the beginning of a phase out. Persoanlly I really like 3.5 but killing 3 aswell would be quite ludicrous as theres still hordes using it even here, is still 3.07 I believe unless I missed here getting upgraded.

doubt that is correct. I think most vB2 boards are still at vB2 because they use so many hacks.

i would say leave 2.0 and 3.0.x as they are still supported by jelsoft and that there are forums still out there operating on such softwares. would jelsoft bother releasing patched 2.x software if no one was using it?

Exactly what my point was before. Just because the hack forums aren't busy with posts doesn't mean people aren't using the hacks or the software version.

That sounds like a good solution.

I think they should be compiled into one forum and basically have the category description be "If you still use the 2.0 version of Vbulletin, post anything related to that software version here"

Archiving 2.0 at this point would make sense I think, but support for 3.0 should be kept, for sure. I know of quite a few companies that still use 3.0.
