afraid of change guys - its probably 1:8 that you have used a vBulliten forum before, its probably the most popular forum on the net for large sites. UBB is dead, vB is the king - long live the king!

PS: I've seen the new forum, it rocks. Sadly its missing wood paneling but it still rocks!

I've used many forums with VB and I haven't been too impressed. What I like about UBB is it's simplicity. It doesn't try to do too much but it still has enough bells and whistles to satisfy me. I guess I just want to read and respond to posts. I'm not interested in sending thousands of PM's, having animated avatars, etc, etc, ad nauseum. Oh well, it's too late now.

as long as we'll be able to inline post naked women i'm ok with the transition

Re: How to use VBulletin
 

UBB has the worst administrative features imaginable and I'm gonna be so glad it's gone. if you think it's okay now, try banning somebody.

I can confirm that the new vB will have ported versions of the Infopop (aka default), Green Day, and Frosted skins. They won't look exactly the same, but they should be close enough to keep many of the people scared of change happy. You'll have to ask Ryan if he's planning on porting any more. The three new vB-only skins I've played with are all very nice, though, and they're big improvements over any of the old (current) skins.

I am so happy. I am a big fan of Vbulletin. Run 5 VBulletin sites myself. UBB is not bad, but I just am much more comfortable with VBulletin.

I was also a big fan of the large font skins (getting old and eyesight is slipping) for a while. If you use Firefox, it's not really necessary though. Ctrl+mousewheel should do the trick.
