Tosa runs VBulletin, so when that is updated, he will update.

umm arent twc's VB looking far newer than ours?

Depends what skin you use.

We are actually using an older version of vBulletin, v3.5.4, while the latest release is v3.6.8 Patch Level 2. I'm not quite sure, but I do believe that vBulletin does have a few nasty snags and bugs which can occur with upgrades. There also is the issue of licensing - unless the software is leased, costly regular fee, non-security updates cost a fairly large amount.

Hey, if we all contribute enough, surely we could buy the updated version, right? Let me be the first to contribute:

A website I used to run used vBulletin. We paid the annual licensing fee and it wasn't bad at all. Something like $20-$25 USD. I would certainly be willing to donate to the Org, if funds were needed for upgrades or other improvements.

So would I. Is there a donation pay pal account?

Hmmm...

* starts spamming pm's with his bankaccount number and the kind request for a donation of the rather modest amount of a humble 50 € (+/- 1.000 $ nowadays) *

On a more serious note: who is actually paying for this board and the software used. I thought it was for free (well not really for free, more like in exchange for having advertisements on this site)?
