Title: Test drive
Post by: Rad1 on December 01, 2007, 12:40:46 AM
Checking out your board. I been using YaBB forever, but my host (Lunarpages) sent nastigram, claiming I am using too many server resources. They booted me off to an exile server:

So I am looking for less of a resource hog.

Friend recommended SMF. I actually had old copy of YaBB SE installed, years ago .. to demo, but dropped interest when the line was abandoned.

I read over at ForumMatrix you have no WYSIWYG editor. Wanted to see for myself.

Why is SMF better than phpBB v3?

SMF can import my (30K) posts from YaBB 2.1, yes?

This board seems fast .. definitely faster than YaBB.

Do you have dark-themes templates? These bright/white designs hurt my eyes. (I'm a vampire.)

I see you have v2.0 in beta. When is it scheduled for release? (ballpark eta)
