Andrew,

I say stick with Phorum.  I've used numerous different versions of VBulliten (joblo.com, ruthlessreviews.com, etc) and I much prefer Phorum.  It's simple, quick, and fits perfectly with the site.

I'll completely support a change, but I do rather prefer the current format.

Thanks to everyone for the feedback.  I like Phorum, but wanted to make sure everyone else did too.  I will just upgrade us to the latest version when I move the hosting.  That  will probably go the 1st week of December.

Andrew,

I'm really glad you decided to keep Phorum.  I really don't care much for VBulliten as I said.  It's fairly cluttered and can be a bit of an eye sore.

We all really love the board Andrew, and I know that I spend most of my day on here, constantly F5-ing waiting for new posts.  You've given us a place where we all come together, rib on each other and help each other out.  You should be proud that you have one of the best damned boards out there.

Also, feel free to post yourself on frappr.com/badmovies.  It would be great to have a post from the main guy himself.

I say keep using "Phorum."

...Wow, is my response completely late or what? Where was I when this conversation started? :)

And now Dean has learnt a new way of doing the exact same thing.  Like a fool I'd just click the refresh button.  Now I can just reach across the keyboard and not move a further muscle!  

Oh, and yay for the keeping of Phorum!

The board is so enjoyable due to the people who visit and post.  I just unfsck the server when it is having problems and try to write a new review now and then.  Not so easy when your wife insists that the cover of "Night Beast" should not be left out where Jenna can find it.

Added myself to the frappr.

I am perfectly happy with the phorum as it is.

Glad to see you're keeping Phorum, Andrew.  It creates a unique dynamic to a board that I really like, more than any other board.

I need to upgrade my site's Phorum too, but I'll let you do it first and work the bugs out.  ;)

I could use a different board, with avatars and so on, but the truth is that the present one is serviceable enough, and I like the reply notification as it is, which allows me to follow replies without re-entering the site. Other board systems I've seen look more sophisticated on the surface, but they don't allow such things and are more prone to errors and other problems.

My vote is for keeping the present system.

I know that I'm a newbie here and that no one knows me but I am going to provide my 2 cents anyway. :P

I rather enjoy the feel of Phorum because it's nice and simple.  This is something that I rather enjoy when I pop in here because I can just look and see all the posts to find something I want to read through.

And even though it looks like you have already chosen to stick with this program may I offer a suggestion?  I perused through that site you provided with the Vbulletin and noticed that it was extremely similar to Invisionfree.  So if you do randomly change your mind you might want to look into Invisionfree(if you haven't already) because they are so close and, as the name states, it's free!

Heard loud and clear everyone.  We will stick with Phorum.  I am working on moving the site to the new server.  That will probably go into effect this week.  There may be some issues for people as the DNS servers catch up to the move from the old server to the new one.
