At first I was happy about this, then I remembered something
I got banned from the infopop forums after posting details of a bug in the support forums. Bit stupid if you ask me, I asked for some help with a problem I was having, my message got deleted and I got an email saying that there had been warnings about what I had posted before (yet a search revealed none, a mod later admited that they had been deleted) and that I was being banned for posting details of a bug that could cause damage to customers boards. Here was a bug that I knew nothing about, as administrator of a board I like to know these things, one of my users knew about it and had done a fair bit of damage with it, the solution was simple and explained in the email but, the damage had already been done. This got me thinking, how many more bugs was there out there that I didnt know about, and I decided to go to wwwthread boards instead as they seemed to have a more open community rather than ban first ask questions later. Now the support is going to be infopop, ok so I havent really needed much support but it was nice to know that it was there if i needed it, now thats been taken away from me []/testimages/icons/frown.gif[/]
On the pluys side, I think this is going to be good, wwwthreads has needed a good rewrite and I think you are now going to have the time to do that, the decission to drop perl is going to be controversial but for those of us who use PHP its great news, I think good days are ahead of ubbthreads, thats if infopop dont over price it
