    Re: kind of dead around here

    I truely miss the old board, I've looked for alternative sites and none matched the old one.

    I miss all my old friends, I wish I knew where they were hanging out now.
    I am a man of many facets, some my love me, some may hate me, but it does not affect who I am.

    Me too. Been trying to put up a board at Web-Orphans: Looking for a place to stay - The Lounge Area but it's just not the same. And kinda dead after an initial influx. Redefining the forum experience. I hate you hostboard. I hate you more than the color mauve. And that's saying a lot. Lt. Lefty, last survivor of the Nostromo, signing off.

    Re: kind of dead around here

    Ok I am hated...

    Old site, dieing a slow death with usage dwindling every day. Used antiquated software that could no longer be developed. Site was slow and buggy. Tons of manual intervention daily to manage the site. Donations were zero for well over 2 years. Tried to use advertising for revenue and members complained. Would just have been as good as shutting it all down.

    New site... HBCP duplicates the old site's abilities and then some plus 100x more features/options in customizing your forum. Dedicated developer on staff who is in the process of implementing things that could never be achieved before and had to tell members it could not be done. All that and usage is actually up and members have made considerable donations that have made a real impact on my ability to move forward. Not to mention the increased in speed...

    I agree there were some downfalls but the positive is far out weighing the negative impact.

    Re: kind of dead around here

    I probably shouldn't have said I hated hostboard more than the color mauve. Nobody deserves that.

    But, well-- alone again. I feel like I'm talking to myself. I can do that even *without* a web-app.

    Hello, Microsoft Sam. Good to hear your voice.
