Yeah, the new ACP looks amazing. I dont quite understand why VB wont showcase their new ACP and instead revealed the worst aspect of their new product to customers(slow loading and buggy forum front page). You always try to make a good first impression, thats what business is supposed to be.Comment

This is true of any version of vbulletin from vb1 to vb5.
Us not giving out admin demo access is because our demo mode system was not seen as a high priority, it has increased security and locks demo users out of some features which could be abused by random third parties. This demo mode has been used since we've had a vBulletin 3 admin demo.
I can say this with some truth, you're wrong on this subject.Comment

Like all previous versions of vBulletin, the AdminCP has some serious power, and anyone who you cannot trust with a gun to your head, should not be given access to the AdminCP. There are lots of things you can do as an admin with admin access that you wouldn't want someone to do.

While it's probably not worth the time and resources at this point, wouldn't a full fledged simulator of the admin panel be interesting? You could go through all the pages, view all the options, see how it responds... but without the downsides of actually granting people access to the admin CP...

Not a lot of change in the AdminCP at this time... Style Change and a new Search.
The Site Builder is the new big administration tool that lets you build pages, create styles and so forth. It is located within the front-end of the site and accessible to Administrators with the proper permissions. You can use it to build custom pages, place widgets, configure advertising, change the layout of all your forums, some of them or make each one unique. You can quickly add new forums to the mix, delete blogs from users, delete social groups and more.
I added a blog about it earlier. It is linked in my signature.Translations provided by Google.
