I\'m setting up a new server for it. Should just take a couple of days.

Is it possible to allow for more than 50 PMs? That really isn\'t enough space.
You can get as many PMs as you want, you just can\'t leave them stored in the forum application. It may be
possible to expand that number, but leaving vast numbers of messages stored puts a strain on system resources,
contributing to the kind of slowdowns and breakdowns we have been having lately. That is one weakness of the
present forum application, it doesn\'t offer any protection against that problem.

Folks,
Please have a look at the new forum. Give
it a test run. It will take a while to get used to all the new bells and whistles, but you should notice an
immediate improvement in performance. It\'s also on a better server. Gotta do something about our server situation
too. We still have to move it to its permanent
home.

Did you give this a try?

I agree. In fact, that was the first thing I noticed missing, as I find it so much easier for
me to read an entire thread on one page.

I don\'t know if I like the whol Junior member Senior Member mumbo jumbo. I think I\'ll miss the

UNMODERATED is not
a \"level\", it\'s a personal title that only one idiot here has.

I don\'t know, maybe the new forum allows for that kind of
titles as well. We will just have to wait and see.

The new forum allows for custom titles on a per user or user group basis. Bruce will have to set
this value...

Well, I guess we know where Bruce got the application. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Sorry about jumping in there like that...but, I use the same discussion forum software
(vBulletin) on my board (http://anabolicminds.com) so I\'m INTIMATELY familiar with the capabilities
and settings.
I\'m glad to see Bruce going to a more robust application for the forum. Once again, coorelating
to my forum, we have about 600-700 people visit DAILY. At any given time there will be 40-50 people actively
surfing and the code is stable, fast, and scalable.
If Bruce needs any help with his new software I\'ll be
happy to volunteer my time!
Bobby
Well if it runs better than this forum im all in - im sure love-scent gets more visitors (1000+ a day) so if it can
cope thats good.
In terms of love-scent and the assistance bruce is a reseller remember folks and has dozens of
commercial relationships. A lot of the pheromone producers have their own research - bruce is the important middle
guy with all the knowledge base here acculmulated over the years.
And if he gets some assistance or commercial
tie ins then so be it - i would like to see love-scent remain independant though.
But welcome aboard bobby - im
seeing a slight bit of negativity in some quarters - although we have always had many points of view around here
anyway.
This forum works just fine for me to be honest. I´m on another board that is like the new one and there´s loads of
tech problems a lot of the time. But only time will tell, look forward to it anyway

The coolest thing about them is the quick reply which I
consider a bit plus myself
CJ,
The biggest issue is probably the server that this forum is hosted on. During high traffic hours it runs
terribly slow and every now and then the application will just plain not accept any new users. We are moving to a
dedicated server at the same time we switch forum applications, so the increased performance that I am certain we
will experience, will be mostly do to being on a server powerful enough to host 100 small websites and nobody there
but us!
As for moving from UBBthreads to vBulletin; only time will tell. It will take a while to try out all
the bells and whistles.

I
see, I don´t really experience problems much it´s pretty rare in fact but maybe I´m not here during the peak

I do... It seems that the MySQL database where all the messages are in,
gets really lagged up, not the actual pages, for example if you go to search page it works fine, but if you actually
try a query in the search, it is pretty slow to connect and get the results from the database.
Well this looks nice.. I was
getting used to the other one so now I have to get use to this one lol... But hey! what matters is that we are here
and staying together no matter where we move to...
c Ya in the boards!

DZorro,
If it ain't broken don't fix it.
Looks great, as far as I
can tell. It is faster.
I noticed there's no obvious way to get to a list of forums.

The thing I miss was the
highlighted new posts and the ability to automatically jump to the first new post when you opened a thread.
There is a button for that!Originally Posted by Mtnjim
