If you're just going to use the forums portion, you're fine as you are until your current license expires. Yes, then you'll have to buy a new license as your VB3 license does not apply to VB4 after the active period.
I'm also curious: How much product research did you do prior to purchasing VB3? Had you been reading the forums here before purchase?To be updated...

But again, with the license you just bought... you can run VB3 until you decide to upgrade or not upgrade. Your support/product updates for VB3 will expire on 10/8/10.
I'd also believe that they could have another VB4 sale period, I would not rule that out at all.To be updated...

Thank you, come again.
Buying a vB 4.0 license now means you are buying license for the whole series of 4.X, not just a year unless vB 5.0 comes out in a year. He will be required to buy a new or upgraded license once his current one expires in a year.Last edited by Qwk86gn; Thu 15 Oct '09, 7:34pm.

I am in a similar situation too. I just paid $180 for vB in august and after a week or so, vbBLOG (i think it was on Aug 23rd'09) Now all these products are going obsolete.
I don't want to complain anymore but would like to ask my fellow community members what should i do now? I am just a student running it as a hobby site. My site has only 69 members for god's sakeand not even 1000 posts.
vB = $180
vbBlog = $60
Total amount paid in August= $240
-----------------
What IB/Jelsoft is NOW asking me to pay? = $130 for an entire new product
If i pay-up, then total would be $240+$130= $370. And i am not sure whether i will have to cough up next year when vB5 releases
--------------
Is it advisable to just run my 3.8.4 till it expires next year? Will i face any security issues? I really like the CMS though.
-------------
@Jelsoft/IB
I want Jelsoft/IB to just give me back my $240 and i will just focus on my studies.. periodLast edited by naoba; Thu 15 Oct '09, 9:55pm.How long will it take for vB to become xenForo?
