vB 3.8 is in beta 3, which means it's not far off. The "official" list of new features is like 100-items long, but as is par for the course it is 90% fluff that no one is going to care about. Here's the parsed down list, all involving Private Messaging:
  • Read receipt automatically accepted
  • Quick Reply added
  • Sorting added
  • Selections are remembered over multiple pages for bulk actions (Move, delete, mark as read etc).
  • PM reporting
  • PM searching (hey, it only took them 8 years, back off)
There have also been a few improvements made to Albums, and you'll be able to use the lightbox to scroll through all the attachments in a thread (hello Babe/Dude threads! ;D) rather than clicking them one at a time. If you really want to see the entire list of crap, here ya go.

    So still no changes to their shitty template scheme, eh?

    4.0 hopefully.

    Although I'm really expecting them to **** it up and add more useless features. :(

    They added "inline diff" to make it more convenient to be raped by their template reversions.

    3.8 hit RC1 (Release Candidate) today.

    Meanwhile, Blogs 2.0 is RC1 now as well and they continue to shovel features into it to make them more like Wordpress without the user experience. :rolleyes:

    I know, it's in my RSS :p That doesn't mean anything for 99% of our members, though.
