What's wrong with this one?

If you change software you will get a completely different look an feel. I am used to this one.

What would the benefits be. This forum looks unqiue.

I can only speak from my own experience and I know SFA about this stuff.

However....when I went to the Yank Forum I was amazed at the capacity and gadgets available there, even IT idiots like me can work it.

No pages failing to flip, no problem posting you tube stuff or having to resize images. And there is much more, including a better 'notification' system. No need to do any of the usual hotlink stuff....just bung in the url and up pops the site, in full.

I managed to convince Monk to switch to it and if a stubborn old Dutch bastard like him can make a change, you can bet it is for the better.

Well the Yank Board obviously has some good technical genius running it, Monks has hardly had anything done apart from putting on a logo.

BAN ALL THESE ABO SITES RECOGNITIONS.

More needs to be done to my forum, yes. Had hoped to have had that done already but real life got in the way

We don’t need to “flip” pages, worry about resizing images and all that crap. Much better Search function too. Fast to find, fast to open pages..

The PM system is a joy to use, unlike this one or the one in phpBB3. They are called “conversations” (private conversations) and are flexible and easy to use. If having a “conversation” with another member you can invite other members to join that conversation. Just wonderful, easy, powerful.

If you make a post and want to notify a certain member, let us say MrJones then “@MrJones” will give that member a notification of your post. MrJones is of course fictional Grin

Oh—much better smilies.
