Sup,
I hacked my v2.0.3 to no end, and never got around to upgrading (lifetime license though, don't worry ).
When a stable version of 3 is released, I'll be purchasing the upgrade... but I have three questions:
1) I'm assuming I'll need to download another version between 2.0.3 and 3, and do several upgrades... what steps will I need to take?
2) The "Now Playing" mod is an integral part of my forum. Unfortunately, it's not a priority for most boards, and subsequently Jelsoft. Does anyone know if the v3 Now Playing mod is similar enough that I could hack the upgrade scripts, to keep my forum's current Now Playing messages? Erasing all of them would ruin thousands of threads on my site.
3) vb3 is so advanced, it looks like I won't have to re-install many hacks from 2 (), but I just want to double check some of these. Does vb3 have these features?
Thanks in advance for all helpful replies. I've been waiting on vb3 for years, but it seems to be worth the wait. Y'all kept the same spirit of development that made me switch from ubb to vb in the first place.

- Able to set a minimum amount of posts before a user can make new threads
- Option to use static files for avatars (to save resources)
- Avatar Categories (to organize thousands of avatars)
- Advanced Pruning Options (nothing's changed since these were added, right?)
- Moderators can close threads with a reply
- Users can rate each other
