I'd look, but their site is offline

Database issues from what I got.

edit: seems to be back online now .... To answer your question... I would say so.

It's still 'Database Error' for me. The only logical reason is that vB5 SEO is SO GREAT that it attracted all the traffic from the world :D :D
 
I spoke to soon. Offline again.

I'm guessing they're using to much resources with vBulletin 5

In their wet dreams, maybe. But as this is reality ........ :p

(I do not put it past them in trying to claim it though)
 
I still find it comical that they boast rather heavily about both VB4 and VB5 being the "Most powerful" community software..
Most powerful in the sense of epic fails, sure. :p

And I had to laugh at Lawrence Cole's post in the vb announcement forum:

vBulletin 5 Connect makes significant advances in the capabilities of online community websites, and is clearly the premier platform on which to build such sites. We're proud of all we've been able to accomplish in vBulletin 5 Connect and we will continue to invest in its growth going forward.

Been "trying" to use the demo site as a user for the past 2 hours, on and off and VB5 is like..Facebook 0.1 Alpha
I mean, it's horrible, it's like they've tried to reinvent the forum software and merge it with their own social networking creation, yuck.
They tried to reinvent the CMS with their crappy Suite product and look how that turned out? Looks like the same people who did the CMS, are now trying it with the forum.
Oh well, hehe
 
Hope there will be a wave of new customers/devs that come here and see why xenforo is that good.

vBulletin5Connect, wow what can i say:cry:! flop flopp floppp.

vBulletin 5 comes with NO free support. :eek:

Premium Customer support

vBulletin 5 Connect comes with free forum support and a month of ticket support from the world-class vBulletin support team. You can purchase additional phone and ticket support as follows:

Phone and ticket support: USD$199.00/year | USD$49.00/month

So everything will be forum based, provided anyone comes across it or not. :rolleyes:

I understand the reason for a fee on phone support, but no ticket support?! What if you need something more "private" because the details involve security or could be compromising?!

$49/month? When you're already spending $200+ on substandard software. No thanks. Goodbye vBulletin.
 
If development of Xenforo was ongoing and not stalled like it is now (I DO understand why), then I would consider XF as well, but with the whole litigation thing, it's just too uncertain

Perhaps that's another reason they filed it, to create uncertainty with potential buyers of XF.

There certainly doesn't seem to be much "connect" between the development and marketing teams.
