Yup, as soon as VB3 came out, Kier has been tweaking it I think and trying to find a decent time to upgrade. Better late then never I guess.

Kier said it would take a couple hours. I was talking with him over ICQ this morning and he finally decided to do the upgrade. VB-3 has plenty of new features so Kier is going to kill most of them, then slowly introduce them to the board. Lots of new toys to play with. 8)

Ahh yes. No wonder why I couldn't get in to SB then. :)
When I tried to get in it asked me for my user name and password and even when I gave it, it still didn't let me in so I was getting worried. But now I know why.

I take it you mean vb3 :lol:


Yes, it is pretty nasty, though the fact that you can do most of the main things at its initial release is quite a plus for Kier's abilities (I think).

Anyway, things'll improve no doubt.

This is actually a beta version, so we'll see lots of changes over the next few months.

The layout has to go back to the original, I simply cannot post properly nor surf right with that monstrosity of a layout. New features are fine and dandy, but apart from the security features I fail to see what's so good about VB3 right now.

I miss the old board (again).

Well, since its Kier's site and he's the lead dude at VBulletin, we won't get back to the old style for a while...he doesn't want to waste all that time making the necessary changes to just do them again when we get the production version up.
