What happens?

[Mandable]

I have a license till the 15th of Jan next year and I was wondering what happenes when that expires?

Will I still have the license, just not be able to download newer versions?

It depends on which kind of licensed you bought. Leased or owned.

Leased: After Jan. 15, you must either renew your license or remove all the vBulletin off your server. (you can't use it anymore)

Owned: After Jan 15, you can continue to run the files, but you won't get any upgrades. You can pay $30 for an additional year of upgraders after Jan 15 :)
