    I see a lot of people complaining about the forum and the lack of features. ( No offence Ben)

    I see that people don't have a proper why of sorting posts out as there is no real forums. ( Forums are the categories)

    I also think there should be more forums to allow TUTs, Videos, General Chat, AOS Help and many many other ones.

    Also the ability to have signatures and avatars rather than gravatar.com pics is a must.

    I am happy to provide a domain and hosting as I get domains for a steal and I have a big web server not being used.

    It won't be the official forum unless Ben wants it to be but I just feel that bbPress is way to limited for a gaming community and more importantly if AOS and many other games are being made. I'm just saying :P

    I would like your thoughts and comments.

    Please be grown up about this.

    Thank you.

    Jack,

    No, you already made a similar thread which I read through. I have zero faith in you to accomplish anything.

    I actually kind of like the way the forum is.

    Honestly, I'm not a fan of this forum for a few reasons.

    -You can't see other people's forum profiles, and clicking their name takes you to the site they've got listed in their profile.

    -Having the most recent posts shoved over the forum and its categories are somewhat annoying.

    -Moderation is seriously out of whack, but that's due to bbPress issues.

    I am a fan in some respects, however. No signatures is a plus in my book.

    @ZakDCCLXXVII, So with the signatures off completely or maybe only for members who have over XXX amount of posts as they could be "trusted"?

    Off completely, or at the very least: No pictures allowed, and a very low character limit.

    Edit: Rather than make another post, I'm honestly just not a fan of signatures. Too many bright/clashing pictures and incredibly stupid quotes.

    Pretty sure most forums have an option to disable them on your end

    I could edit the signature code to allow user to set what he/she would see in the sig.

    @Lokiamis: If that's the case, that's perfectly fine then, signatures are okay.

    Oh and I would like your thoughts about the domain.

    I have a relay good one and is short and easy to remember.

    But you can't discuss or ask questions in the wiki.

    As much as I hate bbPress, I would not move to a forum run by you. At first, you seemed okay, but now I just don't think you're a very good candidate for running a forum.

    Plus, I don't feel like the community here is the type to move to another forum.

    I run many gaming forums and other communities very well.

    Just a note I have passed them onto friends as I ran out of time to run them.

    But as my company is easing off a bit. I have time for a new project.

    As I said to Ben.

    "as the number of users grows, very dramatically as we have seen over the last 4 days from 1.5k posts to nearly 5.7k today.

    I think bbPress would not manage very well from a administration point of view with the way things are heading."

    Both you and Mad Monkey are being really goddamned childish, Jackster. This forum really needs a full-out wipe of all posts and topics, and the moderation glitch/bug needs to be fixed, pronto.

    My favorite part of Jackster's website is the page that just says "COD4"

    I think the bbPress admin bug is not easy to fix.

    Witch is why I suggested a new forum software.

    There you go, done in less than a minute. Just adding subforums and such if you actually want in, until AoS' forums are sorted out and fixed up.
