I mean the Forum change. Are you down to clown with Xenforo, or are you still in love with vBulletin? Lemme know.
pic unrelated
vBulletin is far superior to that heap of trash but if it's for the best and the MPGH Overlords decide on switching then I guess that there's nothing I can do.
I may only think that because I have a really bad case of "I can't let old shit go syndrome" but I dunno, I'd still prefer to keep vBulletin
If it works and the forum doesn't look like shit, what's there to complain about?

Because it's buggy and easily exploitable.
As you may have noticed, MPGH's recent issues with the speed of the forum keep persisting. We have looked at many possible solutions, but ultimately we've came to the decision that the best course of action would be to convert to a different forum board. The vBulletin forum software is poorly maintained, it often can be better optimized, full of glitches and exploits, and other forum software perform better these days. It's time to move on. There will be a minor loss in data when we convert, but mostly everything important will carry over.

Its still pretty slow for me though.
looking forward to it, hopefully we can exceed the 200x width limit @arunforce
All forums now went Xenforo.
Maybe this isn't bad, Xenforo looks more visually appealing.
Thing is, the concept of forums have evolved. vBulletin hangs onto the old system. Social Media is huge, yet vBulletin fails in every way with it. vB5 was supposed to be more modern, but it's literally so trashy that no one adopts it.
What different between the new forum and the old forum ?
Some of the examples I've seen of Xenforo forums absolutely crap all over MPGHs current design. I think think this move will please everyone in the long run. Rocky start but we will get there.

I don't think we should move to the new forum until we have a nice looking template to work with, not to mention make sure everything transfers over to the new forum safely.
