vBulletin 4.0 Licenses Announced - The Wrong People Are Happy... - General

Well, the new license terms have been published, along with a new-look website. [url]http://www.vbulletin.com/[/url] The reactions on their forums are a bit of a mixed bag. Some are for it, and for people who already had vB Blog and vB Project Tools seem pretty unhappy (and I'm one of them!) On the other hand, the IPB community seem to be enjoying it.... [url]http://community.invisionpower.com/topic/296685-vbulletin-have-announced-the-new-prices-etc/page__s__984db45db56f304331d2b3ce4c7d1b10[/url] I only bring it up here, because Facepunch runs-off vBulletin. Discuss.

God damn that IPS thread makes me want to kill them. It's like after spending so many years in the shade "IT'S OUR TIME TO SHINE GUYS!!!" "BETTER STAFF UP GUYS!". The optimism, it burnns

Good god the fonts are really bad Also feature list is stupid

How can they sell a product without screenshots/demos?

Wow that frontpage looks terrible. I don't even wanna go further into the site.

If they updated their homepage why didn't they update the fugly forum page [url]http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/[/url]

Ironic, their forum is 3.8.4, they should have launched both simultaneously. Also, the site looks nice.

[QUOTE=Teh_Cheese;17818052]If they updated their homepage why didn't they update the fugly forum page [url]http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/[/url][/QUOTE] Yeah i saw the forum, and instantly thought I took a time travel 10 years back.

I like phpBB and SMF better.

MyBB Ftw.

fpBulletin :D

Why is the guy in the banner stripping

[QUOTE=Zeke129;17823705]Why is the guy in the banner stripping[/QUOTE] He's transforming :q:

[img]http://files.vbulletin.com/images/cart/screenshots/forum_main.png[/img] Here's a screenshot.

"Moderated forum" does that mean that's the only section that is moderated? :raise:

[img]http://files.vbulletin.com/images/cart/vbhero.png[/img] ooh. vbhero.png.

I don't like vbulletin since they started adding in all those fucking personal page features and picture albums and other bullshit like that. Functional but boring. Forums desparately need to fuck off with the list based sections/threads and chronological posts. I hate them so much now.

vBulletin... ugh. Enough said.

[QUOTE=Somebody_404;17824664]vBulletin... ugh. Enough said.[/QUOTE] You're using it right now.

What the fuck, the new site looks HIDEOUS and the prices are crap! Looks like I won't be renewing my license then :@

So it's the same with a new skin

[QUOTE=DarkSpirit05er;17825219]Behold gentlemen, garry says something and he receives positive ratings immediately. It's not like he will gold member everyone that's friendly to him.[/QUOTE] Just because we give positive ratings to garry doesn't mean we do it because we think we can get something out of sucking up to him. Maybe we genuinely agree with what he said, regardless of the fact that he is the creator of Facepunch and Garry's Mod. (ie, we'd have rated another guy saying the exact same thing, with the same rating as we rated garry)

Everyone always treats him like a god. Forgive me garry! [highlight](User was banned for this post ("troll" - garry))[/highlight]

[QUOTE=DarkSpirit05er;17825252]lolcat[/QUOTE] :iceburn: --- Honestly, I think somone needs to make an ajax-ish type forum. I found that quick-replying reveals posts without the need to refresh.

If its a good post he'll receive [I]alot[/I] of good ratings, if its a bad post he'll receive a lot of bad ratings. But I don't really care about ratings so w/e.

Damn Garry should install that. Facepunch's forums would be even awesomer (Not many forums have a ratings system, you know.)

One of the major forums needs to have live updates so you don't have to refresh to see new posts. Seriously.
