In Reply to: I think this board software needs an upgrade.... posted by phi on May 05, 2001 at 19:01:17:
most people who are regulars here prefer this style...and for what it is used for it's perfect...plus, this is far beyond the original WWWBoard...it has a ton of extra features thanks to HolyToads, the cgi dude...for threaded discussion there is no better style than the original WWWBoard IMHO...and i have installed at least 15-20...for non-threaded UBB or vbulletin are alright, but they really wouldn't work here, although they are much better for the OWB
this board is easy as hell to use, put in your name, password, and message and there ya go, doesn't get much easier really...if by more functionality you mean have all kinds of crap like smilies, and UBB code then yeah, this is lacking those "upgrades"...but this is definitely more functional than any other WWWBoard, even more so than the Mr. Fong device version
: Any considerations of upgrading to something easier and more functional like ultimate bulletin board (http://www.infopop.com/business/business_ubb.html) or vbulletin board (http://www.vbulletin.com/)?
: Whaddya guys say?
