OK, there are just some times when I don't want to be right, but I'm afriad I may be in this instance. I just can't beleive that most of the people seem to be 'happy' with the present setup, losing information, a pics center that routinely fails, regular lose of all postings, etc, etc.
I'm not all for giving up though, this kind of forum is too good to pass up, with no loss of info, an excellent search engine, the garage (which is its best feature) and a stability that EZ Board just cannot guarantee.
I think you should stick with it, seriously, I beleive that people really need to see what else is out there and be able to compare it to EZ Board. I can't imagine we are all so brain dead as to not see the advantages of a new forum. Once it is seen and used somewhat, then maybe we can finbally exhert some pressure on Bob Gumm (if he ever responds to a post again) to make a change.
Anyways, it is your call, obviously, since it is your time, work and effort. What do you think, should we bother? Once we get something up and running, with info, pics, a layout, colours, pics, etc then I have NO problem 'plugging' it hard on the front page of my Monza website, which, as you may know gets a tonne of visitors daily and has hit 100,000 just this month. Slow exposure to show everyone that there is other options, and I can use my pull within this community to test it out on a number of people, get opinions, ideas, etc and go from there.
I really do not want to give in to using EX Board when something like this is available and MOST other groups are using. What do you think?
