Interesting to point out that part of the claimed was that XenForo was using vBulletin's code, but that was tossed out when the people who vBulletin hired to prove this... Actually reported back that they were wrong and that XenForo is it's own standing product. Kind of funny when the people who you pay to discredit someone, actually comes back and discredits you.I know there is a current law suit going on, my question is, whats going on?

The "Risk" of bankruptcy is legitimate....
It is worth to say that Xenforo as a business has shown little sign of activity in severl quarters, and has so far given few reasons not to believe that something is seriously amiss. That large boards such as IGN and (in the future) DP use xenforo should not be a selling point for your run off the mill forum admin for the following reason: Both IGN, DP and others that aren't as cash strapped as most hobby boards can afford to maintain and develop XF independently. Most small community admins can not.There are bigger risks for (most) of new forums: they do not become succesfull, they do not attract members and they no post. I have a vbulletin forum that is not successfull. For some of the new sites, I am starting in the months to come, I need all the help I can get, and among that is that the attractiveness Xenforo to the users and how it makes people more likely to post. If the forum becomes successfull and have a lot active members, all other problems will be minor to me. Besides, Xenforo is rocksolid and I expect no problems for a loooooooong time, no matter what. IGN Boards, http://www.ign.com/boards/ one of the biggest boards in the world use Xenforo. As stated, a lot of developers are working actively with mods for Xenforo, you can be sure you are definitely not alone here.
