Hi guys,
Okay I better leave this alone since it has strayed from the original topic and turned into a debate I don't particularly wish to persue since I'm pleased with .threads overall and will be using it through 2005.
I will say though that I can provide plenty of examples of these so called poorly-written open source discussion handlers being used by big names with vibrant communities and a mind-numbing number of posts. Alas, some are even integrated with the likes of other popular scripts such as photopost, nuke, and several chat programs.
Like the open source community members, you guys are very helpful and friendly. Which discussion forum handler I am providing to my Members in 2005 will remain to be seen... I would certainly consider reaching back into my pocket book but it will all depend how far .threads has come. Be rest assured that if I'm thinking this, others are too. If you think otherwise, get your head out of the sand.
In the mean time... I chose threads, I like threads and Medar, I like this community too but unlike you I have not been a lifetime member around here... I will do what's best for my Members when it's time to make a decision... and that may just mean UBB.threads again too -- it all depends.
My original point was to please have more patience when people poke and Prod about release dates... they do so because they are enthusiastic about seeing UBB.threads advance with new features. I too look forward to seeing what the future holds, just like all of you.
Thanks everyone for your thoughts. Long live UBB.threads!
Jason
