Your right time have chages people move with the time o still think this forum will be here on 10 years time

Regular members that are still here creating threads, posting in other areas and taking part in more threads instead of sticking to certain sections.

More games and lighthearted threads.

A possible reshuffle/tidy up of the forum index although I done that before and of course some still had a moan about it [emoji23]

Members that constantly knock heads and just don't see eye to eye making use of the ignore function and stop derailing/dominating threads with the same old arguments.

Christmas names making a return could be a possibility with it being quieter :think:

I'll mention that to James and if it won't take ages or freeze the forum up I'll start doing them again

Yes. Thank you :blush:

And that the story on how josy save tibbs and possible Xmas

spill tea on him.:dance::dance:

This is still a great forum.
I enjoyed coming here.

How about a stand up part of the forum where members can try and make others members laugh

Personally the bottom paragraph of your post is the reason why I prefer Forums to Social Media platforms in general (although I do like YouTube if that counts) because I find that on Social Media you can just hide in little groups that end up becoming echo chambers. Where as on Forums you can definitely read different opinions to my own which I find fascinating personally (apart from the Rashford bashing for helping feed kids) because obviously a natural Human response would be to commend Rashford rather than condemn him for it.

But personally I appreciate members like LT & Alf on the Forum because I don't agree with them on a lot of things politically, but I appreciate hearing a different perspective to my own.

Also I really appreciated the debate about The Cookout from BBUSA that me and Ashley had recently, because again you can't really get that level of discussion going on Social Media imo because most people like to hide in their own Political groups where everyone agrees with their mindset, which yes it's nice to have people agree with you, but it'd be a boring Internet if everyone agrees with you.

Apologies for the wild tangent.:laugh:

I personally still enjoy the Forum aswell.

Flaws and all.:dance:

You could call it comedy central, just in case any fans of that channel are browsing for somewhere to post.:dance:

That 2 new members in coming

Yes Mock I agree with you, its too easy to pick holes -

Make threads, contribute and be positive and accept that people wont always agree with you

Its just meant to be fun

:thumbs:

Great attitude Ness

:love:

My suggestion is less navel gazing, more positive and proactive posting

Il drink to that
It’s your round, mines a strong lemonade and bag of cheese and onion and watch out smelly Keith just walked in

No idea why my comment was deleted when it was a genuine thought but ok

they cant take it that people would rather use a discord than spend a minute on here lol

Some good ideas here. I've changed some forum names, and made the BB sub-forum titles tidier.

I have thought about a new forum system but the trouble is I wrote a whole article system which links into the current forum that wouldn't work if we changed... Not that the article system is used much - that's why I suggested a while ago that it could be used to publish articles like movie and music reviews but there was no takers.

I do still want to make a new forum theme that is better for small screens.

One of the main reasons to update to vBulletin 5 is that it has extensive native small screen support, but I appreciate that vBulletin isn’t exactly cheap. I had extensive vB 4 experience and still have a license gathering dust but to be honest built-in mobile compatibility wasn’t much better on that than 3. One of my proudest web dev achievements was my custom small screen vb4 skin :joker:. And yet one of my greatest failures. I tried for months to get a PM notification icon working. I had a “private messages” icon at the top and I wanted it to turn yellow when the user had a new PM but I never got it to work :bawling:… it would change the first time they got a new PM after swapping to that skin, but then it wouldn’t change back after they had read it and would just be stuck as yellow ever after :fist:. It still bugs me. Must have been image cache related but I never figured it out. Haunts me.

Same, another reason why the site is failing, people aren’t allowed opinions that criticise higher powers :shrug:

It’s not a thread about blaming admin it’s about making suggestions to make the forum a better place for everyone

That’s why posts have been removed

Jakes comment wasn't criticism about any tibb staff :shrug:

And tbf there's plenty of comments aimed at us that gets posted, funny thing is it's not us that are in threads daily insulting and arguing with other members which is what many of you are guilty of and its majorly off putting to others but keep shifting that blame instead of actually adding anything constructive at the same time as constantly criticising.

amen

And yet.... here you are still.
