IPB 2.0... it's about to become final, I'm using 2.0.0 PF 2 in my production board and it's really good, I haven't had any trouble, of course that if the administration here prefer to wait until final, it shouldn't be too long, I would say a month, at the most.

As far as how fast or how slow... it all depends on how you manage your forum and your server, whoever said that IPB was not meant for large boards is making a big mistake... just to mention one, have you seen the pace at neowin?

Personally I prefer the look and feel of IPB, plus all the new features of v2.0.0 are really useful for administrators and for users as well, developing for IPB has become easier as well, including mods, tools and skins... IPB has become more secure, faster, and friendlier than before. I think IPS has the upper hand at the moment... they're developing a lot more and faster than other companies.

God No, I hate it

vb takes quite some to load up, with all the images. on the other hand vb has loads more features preinstalled than ipb.

i vote for the move to vb, if it was to take place that is

I just want the arade and no anti spam. Is it so much to ask?

[namzuf9]

I voted no. I'm not too keen on switching software but it wont stop me popping in.

If the board is :

Always on

Stable

Fast

I don't give a flying feck what software you use. Neither do I give a flying feck about the wee huggy emoticons.

For me it is the ability to talk to the people here, when I want, without a long delay, that is the important thing.

Everything else is just technology.

Do what you want with the software, just keep it so that I can log in and post whenever I want. That'll do for me.

Amen to that.

Pretty much sums it up.

EDIT: Didn't read the last page. Sorry to copycat ya CP

EDIT 2: Didn't we do this once before? A major change where we had to convert everything? Did we originaly start with VB?? I don't remember

Good point.

Is VB the software we converted from, due to the Licensing not allowing Hashes etc for verifieds?

If that is a fact then we won't be allowed to use it. Can we?

Hmm, I'd say that's a pretty important point to clear up before any further planning or any decisions are made.
