My purchase of XenForo tomorrow now has 2 meanings: Because I want to run a great forum, and as a legal defense fund.feldon23 said:So Internet Brands completely destroyed the vBulletin product, destroying all customer faith in the product, destroying their own chance at profitability going forward, and in the process drove off its best developers. Not satisfied with this degree of failure, they have decided to compound their colossal screwup by filing a lawsuit against a competing product.
Any good will that Internet Brands may have gained back with the vBulletin community in the last few months by FINALLY delivering a somewhat usable product with vBulletin 4.0.6, 4.0.7, etc. after months of sidestepping and promises, you have just torpedoed all credibility with the entire forum community.
By the way, this announcement sounds chillingly like the SCO copyright infringement lawsuit against Linux. How well did that go?
did they also do a veil threat against us that buy the software?
Can you quote that please?
Internet Brands said:We trust that software purchasers understand the risks of infringement of copyright law and act accordingly.
An anonymous (xf staff) send a .zip to IB with what should be supposed to be an alpha of the xf product.
IB takes the bait and fills a lawsuit against xf.
Xf sales during the first day doubles.
The product is released but there is no more evidence of copyright breaking.
Xf 1/ib 0
Ok, maybe it's toooooo impossible.
