If you'll notice, we have since readded forums for 5.X boards. And I mentioned that fact in my previous reply. So yes, we are supporting 5.X boards. And we will continue to provide this support until Infopop itself decides to discontinue supporting that series as well. Since you seem to be so adamantly for the support of previous versions, please let me know if you see us or Infopop supporting any 4.X forums. Or 3.X, 2.X, or 1.X. They are considered simply too old to support. Soon 5.X support will go the same way as support for those other series - both here and at Scriptkeeper/Infopop. That is something you'll just have to understand. If you want continued support, you will have to upgrade to v6. If you've installed a lot of hacks to your board, we fully sympathize with you as to why you don't want to upgrade every time a new version comes out. And we understand this and usually offer full support for semi-recent but maybe not the most recent versions. But if it's a clean install with no extra hacks, there's really no reason why you *shouldn't* upgrade when new versions come out. It's usually a matter of a dozen or so files that need to get uploaded again. Takes all of five minutes or so. And the difference between the versions are bug fixes and security fixes. Yeah, there's not going to be earth-shattering new features in the little revision releases. If you expect any program to have those huge new features with all the minor versions, it's probably best that you stop buying programs at all. Because it simply won't happen. Doesn't matter if it's UBB or other forums software, Windows, Office, Photoshop, or even the little CD player program that you got three weeks ago from one of your friends who knows how to make CD players. You won't find groudbreaking new features in every little bitty release. Wait for new series starters or major versions (ie UBB 6.1). ---Skorpion

No doubt, I see where you are coming from, but pretty soon infopop will continue to build and update new versions, but keep in mind to much is not always so good. I'm sure you can agree on that, but in regard to the contest, it truly shouldn't matter on the version, it's what you can do with it, and because infopop is not going to support this 5x version doesn't mean you should exclude them from your monthly contest because im not going to update until the 6.1 version is released or maybe even higher. I mean if I seen a 2x or 3x version looking better then a 6x version then im going to vote for the 2x version. That's all im trying to say, regardless UBBdev has helped me out a lot in the past, and is a great site, but it shouldn't matter on the version.
Anyway GOOD LUCK EVERYONE just voicing my opinion.
