Members can edit and lock threads they make themselves, a small part at the bottom makes for great statistics (Most viewed threads, top posters...) Looks like you may get your wish if goose can integrate the bot exchange into it.....I like it best. http://robotcombatgames.com/Forums/index.php Posted by: Condor33« on: October 16, 2009, 07:02:45 AM »You could do a bot exchange very easily using Simple Machines. Here's a good example

Please can we have SM??? Posted by: JoeBlo« on: October 16, 2009, 03:12:53 AM »I have been a longtime member and over the 2 or 3 months a moderator on a phpBB forum and that's pretty straight forward and easy to use
Posted by: Serge« on: October 16, 2009, 01:26:13 AM »I like PHPBB for the simple reason of it being open-source, so you'll not be dependant of any company whatsoever anymore.
Oh, and be polite in your emails, I think thay may have helped more than going all RAEEG and DEY TUKK UR JERB on them.

Posted by: Jack Daniels« on: October 15, 2009, 08:22:25 PM »Quote from: ACAMS;73138 There are several options....invision power boards are only $165.00 plus $50.00 a year and PHPBB and Simple Machines are free. We had PHPBB on the first DSL forums and I will most likely switch to Invision if we have to make a switch. Do any of them come with a Bot exchange? ... I'm just kidding Goose. Anyways... ACAMS you have not been very pleased with the current setup as it is. If you had your wish which board would you want the most? Is it worth the time to convert over to a new messageboard? Posted by: roboman2444« on: October 15, 2009, 06:54:43 PM »oookay ur money

NOTICE #2 This forum is vBulletin® Version 3.6.8 and vBulletin Version 3.8.4 is the lastest, and I know I said I would update to help keep the spambots out, but things have changed!!!!!!! I could have upgraded for $60.00, but vBulletin was bought out and in owned by somebody else now and do not offer that update.....I have to buy the new one that has not even come out yet for $210.00 IF I buy within the next 2 weeks....then it will be $285.00.....and $195.00 a year afterwards ( if the lying bastards don't go up again) ANYWAY........here is my support ticket Quote from: ACAMS I got an email that says Quote from: vBulletin The pre-sales vB4 discount is available on active licenses, and unfortunately your license expired on Jul 22nd '08 and is not eligible for the $130 discounted price. Quote from: ACAMS I bought a full license, it does not expire.....or so I was told when I bought it. I was told support was available for one year, but I didn't need support. Quote from: vBulletin Hello, this is what an owned but expired license means: Quote from: ACAMS Well if you can't do any better than that I guess I will have to look for something else....in the mean time.....KEEP YOUR ASS OUT OF MY CONTROL PANEL!!!! So I would not put it past the bastards to hack and spam....so get ready for a change at the very least. If you want to read and see that I am not the only one pissssed, here is the link to their forum......please do not post there. http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/ |
