Wober on IPB

[Nebulous]

We've converted to IPB! Check out the new & improved forum:

While I will miss it being on VBulletin. I'm just happy Wober is back!

I like vBulletin better, but safety comes first, so now you guys are safer! Congrats 🙂

Its been a lot of work getting things set up, familiar modifications installed, etc etc... but its all worth it because our community gets the opportunity to operate a quality software. 🙂

He got hacked twice on 3.8.6, from what I've been told. He also watched people complain at vBulletin's customer forums, according to his pre-sales questions on IPS a while ago.

I have used VBulletin for years and never once got hacked or had any problems with it

He didn't go to PL1. That was the issue there. I've never been hacked either, for the years that I've been on SMF, IPB, MyBB, and vBulletin (though one MyBB forum I used to own got hacked because the new owner failed to upgrade between versions and was three or four versions behind the latest release).

It was this vulnerability found in 3.8.6 that screwed him over.

Shows what happens when Kier leaves the team. Order from ownership has been doing nothing but fall.

Congratulations Theezy, I checked it out earlier, and it looks great. 🙂

Thanks for the article... I can show it to people who think they are safe on 3.8.6

We were on 3.8.5, we never went to 3.8.6 or 3.8.6PL1 at all.
Despite the fact that we were taken offline for a day, I was already thinking about switching anyway. That event just confirmed what I already was thinking about doing.

Congratulations Theezy, I checked it out earlier, and it looks great. 🙂

Thanks :cheer:

Great job theezy, I re-registered (new username is Serenade, old was Desireful) because I forgot my password and email to the old account. 🙂

Silly me, then, I suppose. But welcome to the family, nonetheless.

We've just added a Gift Shop (works in with our cash system). Members can buy gifts and exchange them.

We've restored our moods system & awards system and restoring the arcade is our next project. I plan to have more games than the last one had.
