Well.. goodbye

I will be moving two large forums to xenForo, it would be a lot more comforting to have vbseo go with me. One forum has half a million posts, I'd hate for google to lose them

You will

As stated many times, we have no plans to create a product for xenforo at this time.

If your getting good results from vb and vbseo, why would you move to XEN ?

Honestly i can't understand how you are deciding to move to Xenforo while they still have a huge law case going on. Xenforo is over advertised

Vbulletin becoming big rip off company.. Vbseo the only reason i am using vbulletin

Do you have a link to the case information? Why are they in court? I don't understand why people like Xenforo? Its layouts are worse then vb4.

IB has sued Xenforo. google it, there's 1000 sources following the case.

...and the IB folks didn't show up in the court. I've been following the case.

The case should be discussed on designated threads on Xenforo and vBulletin forums imo

We've been experimenting with xenforo and have created two sites with it. It is most impressive. I honestly hate vbulletin 4.x. It is not made for humans.

Mert, could you clarify this?

If IB wins the lawsuit then XenForo goes out of business? That means everyone that bought the software is pretty much.....?

I am sorry but i am not a lawyer , you should ask that to a lawyer so he can check it according to law .

My message is my business decision. I own Xenforo licenses but unless the law case is gone , i will not move any of my existing forums to Xenforo.

It would really depend on what happens. "win" is a relative term. They may agree on any number of things, including royalties, complete take over of the software, destruction of the software, or anything in between, etc etc.

You'll likely be fine to run it forever, but that may be it for support or versions of a diluted company. And since it will faze out quick if any of that happens, good luck finding a convertor down the road for it back to anything else.

I'm NOT a fan of vb4 at all, but I still don't believe xenforo is the answer. At this time, I recommend staying on vb3 for a bit longer to see what plays out. That, of course, is my personal opinion as a forum runner myself and does not necessarily reflect the views of vbseo as a company.
