I’m not an attorney, but it seems another vulnerability that threatens the progress of this project is, what would happen if (or when) IB got sued (class action?) for fraudulent inducement by soliciting license purchases on a product touted as Gold when clearly it was not and still appears not to be.

I am so glad that i didn’t update my own site to vB4, however I did pay for the upgrade to vB4 suite and regret that now.
I have had to turn away paying clients and refund their deposits because I just cannot create a skin for a script that is just not ready to be used.
What a disaster!!

It’s unbelievable how many bugs (over 4000!!!) there are in this so called gold vb 4.xx. How did this product passed the minimum required software quality tests and got released???

I am glad I didn’t jump on the vb4.xxx train, but kept my forums on vb3.8xx. It seems to be a train going directly to hell at full speed.

Very interesting post on the vb site:

Wayne Luke – Posts per day 10.18 – This year: 64 posts

These are just to name the old top 3, the rest of the staff posts even less or hasn’t even posted here in 2010.

The only active staff members on the forum are Zachery, Trevor(new) & Lynne(new).

Why would you buy ticket support after 30 day’s when you can get the same support on the forums? Maybe IB understood that nobody would do that and withdrew the majority of the forum support and focused on the (paid) ticket support…..”
