I go to renew my members area so I can download the latest version. upload it to a test site, and lo and behold it's bug ridden, meaning it's pointless using it in a production site. Am I the only one feeling let down and disappointed?

What issues do you have - the only problems I have had so far are
1) Swear filter doesn't work in polls 2) New post tracking will screw up, if you have two copies of the the fourms open. Even happens if one is in the admin control panel, and when you click on the forums a new window opens killing the post tracking.
It is much better than 6.5 0 but worse in the tracking from 6.5.1b3

Post tracking. If I uploaded that version on to my www.fordmondeo.org site, I'd get lynched by the members! It's such a fundamentaly important thing to have working correctly!

I got lynched on 6.5 - but 6.5.1 is better.
Mind you if I do get lynched, I will probably go mad - and have to seriously consider what to do.

Strange thing is, I do not regret upgrading - I had big problems when I upgraded to 6.5 - perhaps compared to those problems, the problems with 6.5.1 seem trivial.
It is not perfect - but certainly not showstoppers like I had with 6.5

The broken new post tracking in 6.5 AND 6.5.1 is a showstopper. At least for everyone that is running a busy board.

Post tracking is much improved in 65.5.1 - yes we get a few messages that people read 4 or 5 times - but I will honestly say that I have not spotted many complaints - mind you I do not always visit all the forums - some I may not visit for months on end - normally if they want to get my attention they call the thread Ian_W - LOL Maybe they are so surprised by all the various mods that I have added that they have almost grown to expect these 'problems'.

I have not had any huge issues with 6.5 - the one that sticks out is Moderators not being able to edit their own posts in forums they moderate.
From what I have read on 6.5.1 and 6.5.1.1 - I am not touching either one.

Thats strange. I have not had that with 6.5 nor with 6.5.1.1. One of my mods would soon tell me if she could edit her posts
