    I'm a 21 year old guy from England currently working on a site moving from vBulletin to Xenforo and after the move is completely I expect to be a lot more active here as I hate working with vBulletin.

    Hey all,

    Thanks for such a warm welcome.

    To answer a few basic questions. here goes!
    We're moving away from vBulletin as I personally don't like it. it feels dated, like going from an xbox 360 to a Nintendo 64 (which I love, for the record) and xenforo is a much better system in my opinion and after they win that silly lawsuit it will continue to dominate for awhile!

    The forum is a Halo Community.. hence the name... halocommunity.com. The website grew after the closure of popular stat site halocharts and the members were looking for a place to go and chat and play with the people they got to know. We've since branched off into doing online tournaments on the current Halo game at the time (currently Halo 4).

    Thanks again for the welcomes. I hope to spend a lot more time around here soaking up the information and hopefully be able to contribute my own findings that I make from trial and error... quite a lot of error might I add!

    Not for me though, I've been using vBulletin 4 for the a while now and haven't had any issues. vBulletin 5 on the other hand does suck and needs improvements before I take a jab at using it.

    XF does load faster than vBulletin boards, I'll give them that.:thumbsup:
