thats a start

A couple of comments on your suggestions...
I currently have two boards I admin. Ones using stock 3.7.3 with no add-ons (yet!) and the other is 3.6.8. I'm sure others are in this situation too. Or, they have a board that is 3.6, but have a test site that is 3.7 (or similar). So, having users verify their version doesn't necessarily help cuz they may be asking for help on either of their boards.

If I were to play with this board, I'd add something into the New Thread form for the help forums to tell users that if they want help, they should post their version number, OS, applicable hacks, etc. - as much information as possible and also a helpful thread title. Better help is available if the helpers know as much information as possible.

we lost site, Lynne ?!.. or sight ?!.. lol

i thought you were telling us that the vb.org site was lost... strangely i was still connected.... rofl!

She must be tired of all that helping... :p

DieselBomber, if you know what is wrong with vB and you know the answers/solutions, sorry for the next is building a case, gathering ppl, push for innovations... " Nobody said it will be easy... although is easy to say " Arcadia ? 2008

site... sight.... *I* knew which term I meant to use!!!!

i'm french AND dyslexic, Lynne, try to understand, i want to be sure i comprehand all of your sayings, so you are not misinterpreted...

I offered some Suggestions , I have no responsibility to make them happen , I take care of my site and members and have a Community and not just a Forum , You get out of it what you put into it

Vborg is their site they can run it like they want , I would like for it to be a Friendlier place thats easier to use , but its none of my business

there are great non-senses in that post DM...

be responsible of your post... you add suggestions, you think they worth reading... you have the responsability of having them in your postcount...

I have gotten 2 infractions since starting this thread , I have expressed my self as much as i can

here's the ball take it

you didn't tested the boundaries of vB but the boundaries of your spirit... LOL :p I woke up Poetic today...

p.s. You make me think DM... Can you imagine a vBoard run just by Idiots??? that will be a HIT!

The idiots Usually Find an Enthusiasts to step in and steer the boat , then once they get it going real good the idiots want MORE MORE MORE , the Enthusiast Steps down , and starts his own forum and take 1/2 of the members with him , Mean while the idiots scrambling and constantly banning ip addys and later sells the site because he cant handle the stress

Déja Vu...

vBlokes would be the name of the site...

I wasn't referring to vBorg , They dont have Idiots Running this site , there are very Smart but there people skills are lacking , They get the job done and keep the rift raft out of here better than any other site ive been on .

Vborg gets the job done ATW around , just wish it could be done in a better atmosphere , i feel like im chipping away at the cave wall find some gold and run and not tell anyone about anything , I wish it wasnt that way .

Dont try to make this thread seem like a revolt of the members , i love this site and would like for it to take a step forwards in how they treat the members because thats what sets the pace for how members treat the members

1. Very unlikely, we dont have the time (or access) to install other search systems.
2. Hmm, I quite like that, I may look into it at some point.
3. Sorry, we wont be installing the thanks mod.
4. This site is not about making money, be it by donations or otherwise.
5. See answer 4. Not planned atm.
6. Many members have multiple forums, on different versions, so Im not sure they would appreciate this.
7. Sadly, this would quickly turn into spam your forum, and little else.
8. We have advisors, and are always looking for more. I cant see us having a ticket system.

You need to remember that no only do members give their time here free of charge, but so do the staff. No one gets paid to help out here, so you cannot expect things like ticket systems, and lots of functionality changes. :)

Thanks For Addressing these

This thread is depressing.

The one reason I was thinking about converting was the great community with mods that runs alongside of vb.com.

I am now wondering if I am making the right decision?

I hope I am wrong and all the decent people have not left and abandoned their mods and not offering assistance to newbies.

We called tough love kid ;) on 3 weeks you won't feel it!

There are many quality people and modifications here at vB.org - a few bad seeds should not influence your decision.
