Forum May Be Slow Today

I'm doing some back end work to try out other forum software packages. The existing forum won't be changed, but I do have to touch the current database and that might slow the forums down a bit while I do it. I'll be done as quick as I can!

you will find phpbb is the best and there are maybe 6 excellent forum packages out there and of the 6 only 2 that are easy to maintain and easy to use. One of which is myybb and the other is this one. There is one other... but aside from that the link below is what is out there.

I admit it may seem complex at first, or tiresome, but trust me this is better than the hard coding we did for phpbb1 and the how we had to implement everything// page by page line by line... any questions ask... now off to chase a flaming turtle.

Oh I thought I had been dreaming about there being an easy click over to Petopia the other day when I was looking for it! Glad to know I'm not going insane (in that aspect at least). :D

Me to! Kept thinking I was going coo-coo. Whew that's a weight lifted. And like Royi said I'm to lazy to type it in. Thankfully I bookmarked it on my home laptop AND cell phone.
