To the very latest version.

there any stacks and stacks of new features now such as soical networking

• Inline Spam Management and Prevention Tools

• Thread Tagging
• A new way to facilitate searching and grouping of threads, it is now possible for users to add tags to threads they post or read.

• Thread Prefixes
  
  Long requested by users, threads can now have administrator-defined prefixes to their titles.

• Reciprocal Friendships Between Users
  
  As part of our new social networking system, users can now request that people on their buddy list confirm their friendship, after which time a person's list of confirmed friends will be viewable to other users.

• Public Messaging
  
  While private messages between users have been in vBulletin since version 2.0, vBulletin 3.7 introduces the public messaging system, allowing users to communicate publicly via their profile pages.

• User Picture Galleries
  
  vBulletin users can now create albums and upload pictures to their account.

• User-Created Social Groups
  
  To further social cohesion between users and to encourage people to make friends, vBulletin now includes a facility to allow users to create their own social/interest groups.

• New Member Profile Page
  
  In order to accomodate all the new features in vBulletin 3.7, the member profile page has been completely redesigned from the ground up.
  
  The new page presents information in a far cleaner and more logical manner, while dividing up information into manageable chunks using a tabbed interface.
  
  Individual profile field categories can be displayed alone in blocks in the right column, in addition to appearing by default in the 'About Me' tab.

• Member Customization of Profile Page
  
  The administrator may choose to allow his members to use the profile page customization tool, which allows users to alter fonts, colors, background and borders etc. of their profile page in order to create a more personalized look.

• Inline Editing of Profile Field Values
  
  The 'About Me' tab of each member's profile page has edit controls, allowing them to quickly change values without leaving their profile page.

• Attachment Viewing Lightbox
  
  Clicking on an attached image will now open a lightbox rather than open a new window, with the image scaled to fit the browser viewport. A click on the image in the lightbox will open it in a new window as before.

• Post Edit History
  
  For boards where the history of posts is important, it is now possible to log all edits to posts and then review the changes at a later date.

• Inline Moderation Enhanced Authentication
  
  When performing inline moderation actions, board staff will now be required to re-authenticate themselves if they have not done so in their browsing session.
  
  This prevents the possibility of unauthorized parties acting as a moderator on a public computer where a board staff member has accidentally ticked the 'remember me' box.

• Navbar Notices
  
  Administrators can now set up custom notifications that will appear underneath the navbar when visiting users fulfil specified criteria.
  
  For example, one may want to set up a notice to display when a user is a member of a particular usergroup, or to show a congratulatory message when a user has posted their 1,000th post etc.

• New Human Verification Systems
  
  In addition to the image verification system available in previous versions of vBulletin, 3.7 introduces the means for the administrator to choose the verification system employed on their board.

• User Change History
  
  In order to track changes made to users' profiles by administrators, a change log is now kept for various user profile fields including username, usergroup etc.

• Social Bookmarking of Threads
  
  Administrators can now define a list of their favorite social bookmarking sites and have them available for use on the showthread page for bookmarking threads.

And More...

There are plenty more new features in vBulletin 3.7.

Here is a brief list of some of the ones we haven't yet touched on:

• Visitor tracking on profile pages
• Automatic resizing of attached images to match filesize or pixel dimensions
• Enhancements to custom bbcode system
• Custom icons per forum
• Advertisement locations defined in templates
• Add multiple moderators in one go through ACP
• ATOM support for RSS Poster Robot
• Hooks to allow attachments to be passed through a virus scanner
• Posts by users in 'Tachy Goes to Coventry' will no longer count towards the total number of posts in a thread or forum. They are now truly hidden!
• All AJAX systems now employ the Yahoo! User Interface Library (YUI) for a more consistent and predictable system
• YUI files can now be switched from locally hosted to remotely hosted by Yahoo! with a single option change, saving you bandwidth
