So we made the transition from vBulletin 3.8 to 4.0.1 and now to IPS (while maintaining everything but the social groups).
Why?
If you have poked around this new IPS site you’ll discover that it is just easier to do what we have been trying to do for a very long time. Provide an “easy” to use site that will allow us to integrate the different features like blogging, forum, gallery, garage and so much more.
We wanted a social networking site that works primarily as a forum but will allow a person to utilize features of the site to socialize the way they want to. We found these capabilities with IPS
Now we aren’t going to say it is perfect, but it is a lot close to perfect then vBulletin is.
So enjoy!
