    It's why I asked before could this not have something to do with you using a Windows Server. Maybe patch is not tested with that, no idea and just a thought?

    Not sure if Mark.B has installed the patch on his test board or not, he's not posted he has done on it.

    It is very possible it's because I use Windows 2012. I would bet no one in the test group runs Windows servers and if they do I bet they use Windows 7 with Apache or some nonsense like that.

    There is still very much a need for forums. It offers a degree of anonymity that social media sites don't offer in general.

    Anonymity is like a gun. It is only bad, when the user uses it improperly.

    So they are going to need a patch for the patch and then another patch for the patch.

    It is painfully embarrassing, yet.......no one is embarrassed. That is, in itself, a huge problem.

    Looking at the patches, it don't look good

    Bugs are being found now, but they have been in all the versions until now

    I don't know w hy you would say they would warn anyone. They have promoted this piece of crap as the latest and greatest since day one and never warned anyone vB5 would effectively make your board unusable. Why would you think they would start warning us now?

    Looking on the bright side, loads of new bugs have come to light with the patches
    So 5.1.3 should be an even more solid release :D

    There are not enough cans of RAID in the world to deal with the number of bugs in vBulletin.

    Yeah, when they start to only think about a new feature, new bugs seem to pop out of the woodwork.

    Why do i have a feeling that many issues are still not discovered, so many bug reporters went to WBB, XF and IPB with their sites.
