In addition to a better football team, I also thought La Tech had a better board interface. Greg Byrne would not put up with Yuku, so why should DS and HD?

It doesn't flow as well as this. All the threads don't appear initially. You click on the initial thread and then you see the threaded view. We use a hybrid view of sorts where you click on the first thread then all subsequent replies are shown under neath. If you notice in the screenshots beliw, the main board doesn't show all the replies and that's something everyone is used to. Plus, everyone would have to sign up again.

Here is a screenshot from BDJ.com for threaded view:

could be a possibility. Then I have to think about everyone signing up, moving all existing threads that we have, me doing all the tech support, etc. it's pros vs cons.

so I can see who is replying to who. I guess mabye for the well informed, there is a way to tell that in the non-threaded view. But, to the novice, the only informatin apparent to me is that they posted somewhere in the thread.

when you are making millions off the bowflex, OM ring tones, and Wamu free checking. Get one of your army of minions to do it.

Time I started pulling my weight around here anyway. I've been here a while.

Anyway, if there's something you want me to test out or take a look at let me know DS.

I concur..set up a vbulletin with this add in and go for it. I want to see it in action.

And the chat here is handled by Yuku. But there are add ons for vbulletin that interface with your login.

Nevermind, it does work like it does here. Something to look into. How many of you would be opposed to doing this?

And after researching further, we are the mercy of the developer who made this add-on. She doesn't guarantee support as well of the latest versions of vbulletin. Back to square one.

having to respond to yourself over and over so I wanted to say hi. I've never liked the format of this board, so any change to a real message board format has my vote.
