Yay its finally happened, we've been upgraded to 3.7 vBulletin series. First thing I've noticed is that its slower. But seeing other forums upgrade this has been the situation everywhere.

Anyway from what I can gather the main things attached to the 3.7 vBulletin series are Social Groups, Friends, Visitor Messages, Photo Albums and some forums have profile customisations.

We don't seem to have profile customisation so that must be disabled. Its lame and stupid anyway really. There are tagging on some boards and boardmarking but they're also pretty lame and I don't think we have them.

But we do appear to have Photo Albums, Social Groups, Friends and Vistor Messages.

So my poll is what of those features will you use?

Photo Album - I may upload a few photos, one of myself, the other of my dog and whatever else pops up. But really I don't think its something I will use much.

Social Groups - LOL I've already created one, but really these social group things everywhere have proven to be rather failures and thus its not something I will actively use.

Friends - Eh quite a nice feature on other boards I have a few friends, may befriend a few here but really its not something I will use often.

Visitor Messages - I think this feature is great personally. I can see myself using this to wish people Happy Birthday so much more personal than other ways of doing it. I think it could be useful to say read a fanfic but not have much to say but you can potentially visitor message them just to say you're reading the story and you're enjoying it.

Anyway these updates have made Message Boards to be more like social networking sites. While I think some things are great. Really I don't think they're things that are that useful for me nor for my other people.
