------- VBULLETIN 3.7.0 RELEASED --------------------

Following a very successful public pre-release testing phase, we are delighted to announce the release of vBulletin 3.7.0. This new version supersedes vBulletin 3.6 as our primary, stable and supported release.

vBulletin 3.7.0 is now available for download from the vBulletin Members’ Area by all customers with active vBulletin licenses.

In this new release, we have concentrated on improving features for visitors to your vBulletin forum by implementing social networking tools such as extended user profile pages with visitor messaging, user picture albums, user-created social groups and reciprocal friendship creation. We have also taken steps to help forum staff deal with the growing problem of bulletin board spam by improving our human verification tools to prevent automated systems from registering and posting, and putting in place a one-stop-shop tool for dealing with spam and spammers in the inline moderation system.

Here is a brief but far from comprehensive list of some of the new features making their debut in vBulletin 3.7.0:

- Inline spam management & prevention
- Thread tagging
- Search cloud / tag cloud
- Thread prefixes
- Reciprocal friendships between users
- Public visitor messaging on profile pages with ‘conversation’ feature
- User picture galleries with user comment facility
- User-created social groups with invite only and moderated membership options
- Extended member profile pages
- Customizable member profile pages with admin-controlled styling abilities
- Inline editing of custom user profile fields
- Lightbox viewer for attached images
- Viewable and comparable history maintained for post edits
- Extended re-authentication for inline moderation actions
- Notices system for navigation bar
- New human-verification tools including reCAPTCHA, and question/answer
- User change history
- Social bookmarking integration

For further details on these features, take a look at the ‘First Look’ thread, available at [vBulletin.com](http://vBulletin.com):  
[http://www.vbulletin.com/go/37features](http://www.vbulletin.com/go/37features)

Full details of the 3.7.0 release, together with links to install and upgrade instructions and all the usual vBulletin release information can be found in the vBulletin 3.7.0 release announcement thread:

From what he told me a while back he might build out a new pittspeed entirely(hardware and all). The rack is moving from one side of the datacenter to another so I am guessing hes going to build it out then when we move the rack & he will turn up the new Pittspeed.

Who knows tho, he wont give me a straight answer on when the move is so I can tell the people that are paying me for space/hosting 💤
