    Please keep the lawsuite out of this thread, or it will probably be closed. People will have enough to say about vB5 Connect w/o that.

          Beta - released to the general public.

          Since this is generally available, its been labelled a beta.

              I too am pretty disappointed in what I saw, and will hold off for a while before I upgrade. I have to have faith that this is an early beta with most features not implemented.
              It must be hard being a vB developer. I'm not being sarcastic at all. I'm sure you are working very hard to produce a great product, but the responses have been clear and unanimously negative. I kind of expected that, but still it must be tough to hear.

                  Should the rule not include somewhere something relating to the stability/readiness of the product? Or was it decided that something had to be released so you HAVE to call it a beta, regardless of the fact that it's really at pre-Alpha standard.

                    You're right, I remember that tradition. And once it's called gold, it's ready to be sold.

                      It looked much better in the screenshots. The new default style, sorry to say it, but it looks horrible imho. I had also problems with the page load. It loaded very slow to me.

                          I feel like Homer's father. I'm old, grumpy and I just don't get it.
                          Hmmm. Cheese.

                                Yes Paul but we are in Beta10 and I don't know if you are online or not because all the users are shown offline !

                                There is a lot of clear bugs that should be fixed in Alpha stage and you should not accept to pass it and move to beta
                                How can you pass this copy from Alpha to public Beta with this quality?
