I am now 74 years old now and don’t have the patience to do all that we did years ago when YaBB was in it’s infancy.  Also my forum is very quiet these days so may not be worth it.  Members, like me are getting elderly and dropping off and the young ones prefer Facebook to a forum.

I shall watch the new release with interest.

Just a cut and paste but while not all active I have 44 mods all up

what mods do you have derek?

I have a very heavily modded 2.5AE that is running well.   

I might be interested in updating but how the heck do I keep the mods and the template.?
