I thought we were moving off v bulliten at some point Niall? Stop slacking and make it happen
Not a vbulletin issue, the software uses the server's time and as that was about 50 minutes fast, everything went fubar when it was corrected.

...also switching platform mid-season would be :houllier:

But have you plans to make the change at some point? Maybe at the end of the season?

Yeah probably. Any big change like that will always happen in the off season.

Why leave vbulletin? I think it's the most professional looking and easy to use forum software out there. Add to that all the possible modifications that are availible and the fact that it's more or less the industry standard. I think switching would be a mistake.

Admittedly I haven't been keeping up with forum software news, as it's been a while since I've ran one, but what alternative is better at the moment?

I cant remember the name of what Niall was looking at but it looked good! We dont use the modifications anyway, Niall is God. He knows what is best for us.

There are couple of other options that are probably better long term solutions for the CAF. Time will tell.

Oh well, Like I say, I'm a bit out of the loop these days when it comes to forum software. I didn't think anybody had caught up with vbulletin yet. Good to see there may be more viable options. Vbulletin, although very good has had alot security issues and spam problems. If I remember rightly it was also quite a drain on the server.

Tonight will probably be a good night to do a bit of maintenance Niall, think it'll be a quiet one and only the General will be active in any way.
