an upgrade is long since over due. but... after like 15 years of being with infopop, i think it might be time to switch to another software type. the features are just outdated on this ole guy, and the new version of infopop is still months, if not years, away (it was sposda be out in march of this year)
that said... any preferences? stick with infopop? vbulletin? phpbb? (which i think i hate) phorum? something else i dunno about?

seriously though, is this board broken enough to need an upgrade? why fix something that's not broken.
I've been a poster in the kind of forums that use the examples you mentioned. I prefer what we have now. Or if I had to choose, phbb is the most userfriendly.

This is the only message board I know where you can click on a thread in a forum and it doesn't mark all the other threads in that forum as read. Please don't get rid of that.
What kind of advantages does upgrading come with? I really don't want to see stuff like facebook integration or those little "share" buttons that are showing up everywhere else.

I think the board as is runs as we need it to. Another migration just means possibly losing moties, posts, and other fun stuff as well as the inevitable crash that will come soon after or during.

I've been a poster in the kind of forums that use the examples you mentioned. I prefer what we have now. Or if I had to choose, phbb is the most userfriendly. it's not broken, but it is largely taped together. there are some lovely features and points about this one that i'd certainly not want to remove/replace, but at some point that will have to happen, regardless. of the potential newer features; - significant speed boost - a search feature people don't cry over - user-customizable skins (so, like, you can make the boards blue if that's easier to read, or giant if you're sneaky bunny, or optimized for blackberry/iphone use) - less pariah

vBulletin was great at the old 'Rama. That said, this isn't the old 'Rama. If you are sure the change will be good...do it. Otherwise, I like this place as is.

We could also use a search engine that's marginally functional. If you believe there are zero matches for the word "Rob" in the whole nine year lifespan on these boards, I'd like to sell you a parachute that opens on impact. And polls should be brought back to all forums and not just under comic books. Just a thought.
There is no version of this where you come out on top. Maybe your army comes, and maybe it’s too much for us, but it’s all on you. Because if we can’t protect the Earth, you can be damn well sure we’ll avenge it.

As if anybody cares enough about your posts to other people's posts that tell them that nobody cares about their posts to post replies telling you that nobody cares about your posts. So there.

Interesting, that phrase that won't show up on the search function either. No way of finding out who's "in the lead" or however the one player game works.

I once googled "mcgurk" and got a warning saying that reading these search results can end in overwhelming boredom or outright stupidity. I decided it wasn't worth it and closed my browser.

I couldn't bring myself to mention how overwhelmingly non-boring it is to sleep in a windowless room and have be unemployed, or how brilliant it must be to root for a baseball team that never wins any newsworthy games and make passes at other women behind my significant others' back. I just couldn't.

Don't be confused, Pro. Whoever told you I was Pariah was probably hired by Rob to work on the search feature. But that's on page two.
