Is it a money issue regarding v5? Michael did reference the changing landscape of our current economy, so I think we can assume that's a factor. All of the big tech companies have been rolling out layoffs, so I guess we shouldn't be surprised to see the same from VerticalScope/ProBoards.

The line of text they added to the forum yesterday was a bad approach.

Great Divide, I addressed this with a ProBoards admin and the sentence was later removed from my forum's footer. However, they intend to revisit and potentially reword the statement. I posed suggestions and offered to help write a statement that would convey a more appropriate message. The higher ups are aware of my thoughts and I can continue to offer feedback.

If they canceled it, I'm thinking it could be a few years.

Sorry if the triple quote looks confusing, but here's where we stand. Start in the middle and read downward. No, ProBoards will continue to provide free forums and support for those forums as it has for the last 23 years. While I have conveyed this information to my forum, members are still concerned and asking me if I have a course of action in case ProBoards ceases to exist. Can you provide any additional assurance that I can pass along? I'm aware that you cannot promise that ProBoards will be around for the next 200 years. You also probably cannot make any disclosures or promises regarding ProBoards' financial situation, but some people on my forum are looking for more than a "We're fine." While I can't provide specific assurances (as I am not the arbiter of the universe and ultimately I do not have final say-so) I can say that as it stands there is no reason to cease the operation of ProBoards. We are continuing to provide user support and technical logistics/operations to ensure the uptime of all of our forums. While we can't justify the cost and resources necessary to deliver v6, the bar that ProBoards as a service has to clear is much, much lower.

We all know full well who is behind all of this. We know who started this mess...... Owen why can't you just stay in your shell and leave well enough alone?
