Yes, it’s a fact, today my access has been removed from the community forums and company sites. So I can now also blog and tweet about it. February 2004 – February 2009; version 3.x of vBulletin. I’ve been blessed to have a great hobby as being part of the support team helping those with questions.

Since I have multiple groups of users and multiple computers, I have decided to have multiple Skype accounts.

A small update for those who want to know what is going on with the vbfans-, and the wetalk networks. I have gone ahead and made some time to upgrade the vBulletin software.

My Celeron 450 mhz Pro Pentium machine has returned !

Changes aren’t limited to just a handful of my sites (see this blog) but also to a few adsense network sites and the wetalk network.

Time for some changes. The vBFans network is a single set of files and one installed instance of vBulletin. And using a plugin we can add and remove sites to the network. The user doesn’t have to register again and again. Very handy. But it’s time to review the setup.

In a few of my other blog posts I have already used the example of Gmail and https to improve security. But I feel with the recent improvements Google introduced that it is time to emphasize security and email again.

Hey everybody,

This thread is a serivce request to those who wish to help out build a new community from scratch, as part of a network of sites that I own and run. It has been over six months since I started the last one, so it’s time to move on to the next one. Hopefully you can help on a volunteer basis. Any return to staff is via satisfaction of being part of the team, link backs to your site(s), ad spots sharing, and hopefully over time sharing advertising income.

With MySQL v3 out of the way, and MySQL 4 and 5 being used everywhere now (and if you have not upgraded to the latest stable .. shame on you) I think it is time to point out that you can use MySQLi for your code, software and sites. This blog is to inform you about MySQLi and give you information so you can decide to upgrade and if you have already to perhaps use it on your vBulletin installation.
