Rant Pt 2: LiteBulletin Soon to be Less vB

8 Comments

From their announcement made this morning (coincidence, after I made my post?)

The future of LiteBulletin?
Well LiteBulletin was meant to be an exact copy of vBulletin 3 but our mind changed and so our next upcoming version (1.2) will have own templates and a fresh and new designed style which is definately not vB-ish.

What about some vB-like phrases?
Things like “Visitor Message System” reminds too much of vB so we will rename that to “Profile Comment System” as it also describes what you can do with that. There is also a few more things we will rename and change to make LiteBulletin much more original.
Until now LiteBulletin could be called “LitevBulletin” or “vBulletin Lite” as it is too much like it.

Read the full announcement.

It’s good to see (I’m assuming they’ve read my post) that they’re respecting our wishes with why we opened MyBB up and just how cheap creating a vBulletin knock-off really is. Still waiting on the website, favourite icon etc to change. We’ll see if that magically happens today too.
