Hi  I'm still using UBB Classic version 6.7.2 I have a non expiring license. Is it is worth my while to buy access to upgrades or are there any upgrades for UBBClassic?

UBB.Classic is no longer being developed; all develoment work has shifted to UBB.Threads7 which is in essance the new downloadable product (UBB.Threads7 isn't really an upgrade of either classic or ubb.threads6 since it's been completely recoded).
Myself, I would highly recommend migration into UBB.Threads, it's much faster than classic ever could be.

I switched to Threads 7 after over 5 years with Classic, and really love the added features.  If the extra features are attractive to you, then go for it!

Hi Barbie - Your hacks would probably need to be converted/redone for Threads 7, but perhaps some of them are already included as standard features... You can see most of the features of T7 right here on this board, and a listing here, but keep in mind more has been added. You can also look in this forum -- start with "Version 7.0 - October 5, 2006" and work your way up thru all the changes... you'll see a lot of work has gone into it.

Your hacks for classic will not work in threads; there is a very good reason for this... classic is perl/flat file, threads is php/mysql.
A lot of the old "hacks" are actual features in .T7; such as the calendar, sticky topics, quick reply, se friendly urls, etc (some of these where added as stock in later versions of UBB.C, but I include them here as well).
