The blue one is worth trying, I agree,
Does it cost you anything to upgrade to the newest version of the software? That would also make things better and help retain members.
Happy Halloween Everyone! Enjoy the new theme!

Re: Happy Halloween Everyone! Enjoy the new theme!There are a number of features that most other forums have that aren't available here: such as being able to click on a person's name and see all their posts, or pm them, or threads they've started. You're a member of the skeptiko fiorum, play around there and you'll see the features I'm talking about.
This software seems pretty out of date in comparison.

Re: Happy Halloween Everyone! Enjoy the new theme!Scepcop - take the advice or reject it, but it is much easier to do certain things on other forums, and some things this forum doesn't support at all.
Wouldn't you expect that newer versions of the software have made updates and improvements? The reality is that as much as I have fun here, the actual technical browsing experience is much worse here. Even the fact that when you quote someone it copies your original quote as well. I keep on erasing it because it just makes things cluttered.

Re: Happy Halloween Everyone! Enjoy the new theme!Ok I just looked at the Skeptiko forum at: http://forum.mind-energy.net/
The only thing it has that we don't are: 1. A latest topics box on the index page. 2. The last topic viewable next to each board section. We can install those too, but what's the point of showing the last topic in each board? It's not like the last topic is more important than the other topics in that board. I don't see the point of that. Showing one topic per board just seems to take up more space on the index page for no reason. Do you all really want that? If not, what do you want? I want to try to help, but you need to be more specific. You can PM anyone here by clicking the PM button next to their post. We've always had that feature. So to claim that we don't is technically false. I'm trying to work with you here, but I can't if you aren't making technically accurate statements. “Devotion to the truth is the hallmark of morality; there is no greater, nobler, more heroic form of devotion than the act of a man who assumes the responsibility of thinking.” - Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
Re: Happy Halloween Everyone! Enjoy the new theme!The forum is back to normal now.
Here is another great bluish theme: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/styl ... ance/demo/ However, even though these blue/white themes are nice, they just seem kind of dull and bland compared to this spicey red theme don't you think? “Devotion to the truth is the hallmark of morality; there is no greater, nobler, more heroic form of devotion than the act of a man who assumes the responsibility of thinking.” - Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged
Re: Happy Halloween Everyone! Enjoy the new theme!On skeptiko, try right clicking on the name of a poster - see the drop down menu with all the options. Also, go to their user page and you can also easily do things like see their last 225 posts, see any threads they started, send a PM, see when they last logged on, leave a message on their page, add them to your friend list to make PMing easier.
When you quote someone, the post they are quoting doesn't get quoted - so you can just respond to their most recent post and its clear. Searching is a lot easier as well. Also you can subscribe to threads I think you can customize how you view threads much more easily as well. I'm sure there's stuff that I'm forgetting. They have done more than cosmetic changes and bug fixes. Honestly, Scepcop, I'm not trying to be a jerk. I think if you want to have a popular forum people will be more likely to stay if the site is as up to date as other sites they are on.
