Since most people here are admins of some sort, I wonder who's encountered the same phernomonen as I.

I love feedback forums.

Okay, they don't love me, but I'll move on to that.

I love to help webmasters (espcially vb3 ones!) with their bulletin board, suggesting ways of doing things they want to do, suggesting tweaks here and here.

To be honest, I do it to such an extent that I've been labled a troll on quick a few occasions, occasionally correctly. (oops!)

But it must be frustrating for your vb novices and experts, encoutering inefficient forums which just are DYING for your administrative input?

Or is it just me?

Is not just you my friend

I think feedback forums are great and a necessity for any small and large community.
Knowing what you are doing wrong can make the difference from a "dead community" to an active place with returning Members.

From there to be labelled a "troll", is a different story............ but I'm sure you just do it to be helpful.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
