To be honest guys, the default forum skin you've got up isn't terribly attractive or user friendly, kind of looks like a default skin from a forum software from when the internet first started....

I think if you were to improve the skin and make it more user friendly (eg, not having to wait 30 seconds to view forums as a guest) then you should do much better than you currently are ~smile~

Hope you do well ~smile~

The forum seems pretty dead to me, no one is really posting. It's a shame 🙁

I missed their switch to phpBB...I must say it does look better than it did on vBulletin.

Very, very unexpected to see phpBB back. Hopefully this'll get activity back 😀
 
Re: Forum Adverts- 19000+ posts and 700+ members

it was a very long process to go back to phpBB.

mods and forum and group permissions are being done at the moment

Did you use the vB to phpBB convertor off the phpBB website?
 
Re: Forum Adverts- 19000+ posts and 700+ members

From my experience (when I ran the PixelRaider forum) it's much much easier to maintain a phpBB forum, especially when you've got into forums primarily with phpBB. The thing is most of the people here use phpBB and lots of us know how to modify it etc.. without causing any errors.

With vB it can take so long to do basic tasks in the Admin panel, so I see this as a good change for FA. Hope you guys can pick things up ~smile~

Also with vB if the forum dies you will think what a waste of money.

I am like most people who has used phpBB for years, vb is a good iece of software, and is very easy adding features to it but I do agree that its harder to do simple tasks using vb compared to phpBB.

I hope this forum will be up once and for all now. You have probably lost a great deal of members when it changed so much. It went from phpBB to vB and now it is back to phpBB. There was problems with the image urls not working, and the forum rules countdown wouldn't start. Now with the switch back tto phpBB I hope this has all finished. if not, I may have to leave. It used to be a great forum, but all these errors and things not working made it unattractive.

Also who is the admin? Subz or jasonp?
 
Re: Forum Adverts- 19000+ posts and 700+ members
