vB continued along and developed a more modern version of the software. I don't think any of IB sites use the current version. I used to use it for a forum I run, but left after IB bought it and ruined it.
Why did IB decide to install such an outdated version of their own software?
While I agree this forum software looks archaic, change of software a couple of days ago was transformative for me. Previous version was borderline illegible and ridiculously buggy to type on. So latest rev level is head and shoulders better and makes this site much more usable. Is there prettier software out there? Absolutely. We maybe in the 70's now...but two days ago the software moved out of the 50's.
