Take a look at vb.com and read the numerous amount of posts from the people that have shown concern. Even to the point where they almost lost it. vbulletin.com is the url.

I know the URL Shell (that rhymed)

Lost it as in what? like lost their minds? I agree there are a lot of people reading too deep into the situation and getting all upset because of rumors or happenings that are blown out of proportion.

If you flip back in this thread a bit and read John's (Smacklan) post about not worrying about things you can't change and just waiting to see what actually happens before you get all upset, that is how we should all take it.

But noooooooo, not us, we are like the emo kids of the forum script world. "There's those vB kids crying over their script again" get a grip people, it is not that bad, and all the whining and moaning in the world won't change a thing other then hold vB/IB up on releasing a quality product because they are devoting too much time to damage control that isn't even merited.

I'm not upset, concerned. I'll expect what I expect when it's released. I'm almost sure what i'll get but again that is mere speculative thinking. I agree with johns philosophy, if you can't change something or have an impact then there's no point in bleeting like a little lost sheep. But the facts are they are bleeting, they are worried, concerned and that we can both agree on is a fact.

Marco and co could come into this thread a million times and basically say "everything will be fine" but sure enough, it won't change the minds of the concerned.

what I will say again though, if vb4.0 is anything like 3.7/3.8 then I'm almost positive there will be an uproar with limited functionality within features (that we were blessed with in 3.7/3.8). But again, we'll see and if worst comes to the worst I still won't be fussed. Either way it's a win/win situation for me. So the developers in my eyes can't really do wrong.

lol...i like my "Ford pinto" as long it runs and the local parts store has the parts to fix it, I'm going to still run it to the ground. There are more serious things in life to worry about then this.

I'm not really that worried, VBulletin has a brilliant Track record, if i wanted to Read right from the horses mouth i'll go over to VB.com.

I'm sure the new guys will bring much needed and fresh ideas to Take VB into the next level.

Are there really people that spend 10s of thousands either ?/$ on their forums??

Life goes one, whoever owns VB, Imagine how i felt went Tata bought Landrover

I own 3 vb licenses, and I am not concerned. Lets get some fresh people into jelsoft and see where things go.

This is like people who own trucking companies getting upset that a few people from GM or Ford left. Is no big deal, people change jobs all the time and the world keeps going around, and around, and around.

Interesting Uk. Why the "thank god" your not worried kevj comment? Are people not allowed to be concern of the future of vbulletin? And secondly, who's scare mongering? And what rumours are you speaking of?

Last time I checked, Developers left (fact). many people are concerned over at vb.com (they just don't bother posting it here) fact.

Like I stated and I'll say again. I'm not concerned but if 4.0 is anything like 3.7/3.8 you'll be most certainly eating your words. I'll probably even be here telling you I told you so as well.

Let's hope it's not the case and then instead of thanking god we can pay homage to the developers.
