Curse vBulletin! Rot, Burn, Die!

are ya getting that warm, "family", feeling yet??

I bought my licenses for $160usd. Is there a sale I don't know about?

I maybe should have waited - the way the US Dollar is tumbling just now means I could have saved over a THIRD of the cost by waiting just three months. The US dollar really has hit a low - I suspect this will have to show through in the pricing tarriff's at some point, with significantly raised prices maybe?

You bet! It's SOOO much friendlier in the vBulletin community compared to the "other guys" I've been involved with!

I'm continually amazed at the power and flexibility of vBulletin and it's ease of use, especially after struggling endlessly with other software. It's almost as if I've been suffocating in a damp coffin for 5 years straight, finally escaping, and being continually enraptured by FRESH AIR and sunlight.

... for not coming into my life earlier!

Seriously, I was using phpBB for 5+ years and had no idea of the expansive, comprehensive and tremendously powerful capabilities that come with vBulletin. It quite literally dwarfs phpBB. If I had known about vBulletin back then, today I would be saying "phpb... who??"

There are so many reasons the software is superior. I don't know if there is a thread on this, I can list 10 reaons off the top of my head why it's the best. I'll only name a couple of things...

One thing that is totally cool is how easy it is to import new add-ons. And if you don't like them, it's just as easy to uninstall. Takes under a minute when you know where the options are as opposed to hand-installing or coding mods which can take hours for the complex ones in other forum bundles.

vBulletin is also easily worth much more than the cheap $129 license cost. Honestly, part of me thinks it should be priced somewhere in the hundreds, or even over $1,000. But the affordable price is another reason why the software and it's programmers are so great - they've kept the common person in mind with regards to affordability.

I also noticed that the attitude here is much more supportive and friendly. On other forum websites, it seems like they are looking for an excuse to call your post off-topic and lock it every time you post. Unhelpful to say the least.

Anyway, vBulletin is the best forum software, bar none, and I'm confident and supportive of it staying on top for years to come.

got this impression when importing my old phpBB to vbulletin, what the hell did I do to use phpBB :x

It's been close to half a year now with my purchased license and the software is STILL amazing. I occasionally shake my head in amazement at how awesome this software is, and, more importantly, the prompt and patient responses we receive from Chuck and all of the other cool dudes and dudettes at Jelsoft.

You guys totally rock my world. Maybe I'll make a shrine with a php manual at the base in honor of you guys... (kidding).

Rumours have it that Chuck Norris works for Jelsoft, too... and he roundhouse kicks pirates... just rumours though.
