Call for Beta Testers

[Monorail Man]

Hello Everyone!

As you may have heard, vBulletin 4.0 is fast approaching - and MiceChat wants to be ready for it.

If you would like to help us, and test out the new upcoming MiceChat (including mobile stuff), just reply here, and we'll add you to the new Beta group we are forming.

Expect to test for about 2 months with various scenarios.

Thanks for your help!

sign me up. good luck with converting all your customizations to vb4. After the pricing fiasco... we're holding tight for awhile and will see how the dust settles before migrating our sites.

Re: Call for Beta Testers

I'll be glad to throw my motley collection of equipment against the task - How far back would you like to test - Windows for Workgroups 3.1? Mistake Edition?

Including Windows Mobile 5 which might get bumped to 6. And if the money tree ever blooms, into a Droid.

Flynnibus: Are your sites anywhere near the traffic level reached here? That's most likely what is driving Hastin into the rush to upgrade...

No not this size.. but that probably isn't why he's upgrading (nor is there a rush.. they just released the first public beta this last week). It's a complete rewrite of the product, including new things like CMS built in, it's own SEO, much more social features, and others that they have had to graft onto the core vb3 product here over the years. I assume MM would like to flatten all of that on the site into the core vb product.

The styles are QUITE radically different in vb4 as well. It's quite a migration especially for a highly customized site like Micechat... which is probably why MM is looking to pilot the migration before cutting over.

Looks like beta4 was just posted a few hours ago.. for those curious what a default site looks like.. check out vb's site where they are running vb4 now

All joking aside, I'd love to help! I've been looking forward to vB4 for a while now! Looking forward to all the new hacks on MiceChat's side too! (Sphynx would be cool too...)
