vbulletin is now at version 3.0.0 should we let them know? or is everyone happy with the oh-so-dull-grey-set-in-the-stone-ages current version?

im sorry - didn't mean to offend. Its just looks a bit, oh you know, OLD

I had considered calling my thread boreds.ie but I decided against it.

I'm a participant of a few online forums and this one always seems well, grey. The others offer so many features (such as reply in email notification,DHTML summary in forum list, list of users online, users currently viewing thread, current user activities etc).

I can well understand that those sorts of features are probably quite expensive.

Ah the great Irish trait of begrudgery has reared its ugly head once again. I'd be fairly surprised if the boards.ie admins didn't know that vBulletin 3 wasn't out seeing as they've been talking about it for a while now. Its more likely that they're waiting to finish the front end redesign before implementing it.

I wonder what the odds are of this being one of Bubbles plots to wreak havok on boards. Doesn't really seem his style tho, punctuation is too good.

The way to ask if VB3 is coming

By reading wishlist.ie's posts, I can imagine he/she/it says "roysh" a lot

Oh dear, I didn't mean to cause insult - it was a simple opinion/enquiry which unfortunately appears to have caused injury.

Please accept my apologies - I didn't realise forum users were so sensitive.

Can't be bothered having an arguement with someone who has the equivilant slagging skills of a 12 year old. Can you kindly bugger off with your thinly vieled insults and that major chip on your shoulder.

Oh dear, when newbies attack pt4

v3 has been talked about for some time, Id rather boards stayed the way it is from a superficial point of view.

How can someone advertising a website in their username be taken seriously?
