I'll bring this up again--upgrading the site
We could significantly upgrade the features on this site by using some commerical forum software.
1. additonal sorting options on posts (i.e. sort by number of replies) 2. thread preview (when your mouse goes over a post) 3. post rating 4. user reputation 5. buddy list 6. calendar 7. skype integration and many more. the question is it worth the cost. yet. eventually we will move, it's just a matter of time and logistics. |

My thought is that it's your site, Mike, so it's basically your call as to when.
Do you have a PayPal account? If so, I'll kick in some $ when you're ready to do it.

I guess what I should add is that if everyone is satisfied with the current feature set, then there's no rush.
Also, while it would not break the bank for me to purchase the software, I do like the idea of the site breaking even (i.e. the site paying for itself). I'm not out to make money. But I'm not out to lose money either. |

I am happy to pitch in as well. Don't really care if it is sooner or later. I'm happy with the way things are but progress is always good.

ok guys, thanks for the support. as I have said before, I consider myself less the owner, and more the volunteer caretaker.
I will look into doing the conversion. It should be fairly painless. but those are also famous last words.... |
