Doesn't IB own Jelsoft - the folks who made vBulletin?

it has not...if you scroll down to the bottom of the page you will see we are still on ip boards..





IB does own quite a few other discussion boards that are on vBulletin, so you can see the differences between the two softwares on their other forums..

vBulletin is pretty good software. I've used it over the years for setting up a couple different forums. BUT, the main feature about IP Board that I really like is the user controls in the top right corner(my profile, content, notifications etc). I like being able to quickly jump to "My Content". ..Not sure if newer versions of vBulletin have this feature, but on older versions, it is more tricky to navigate to "your content"(list of threads you have posted on)

Q: Will all the content and threads for 5Series.net from the IP.Board database transfer over to the VB database and still be searchable?
