nope nothing.. i have concerns as to why we are still using this forum software also. It is a rip off of open source code which Kimble decided we needed a long time ago, and its ooold. If you want to see what free forum ware can do look at www.thehh.co.uk. No spam to be found there or on many other open source based forum engines. The logic of his descision eludes me to this day. He said it was to protect us from spammers etc, but that clearly isnt working is it
 .This kinda needs reviewing, but since a long time ago when we had unreliable hosts pulling the plug on us Kimble appointed himself dictator of the clubs descisions after "kindly" offering to host this forum on the back of his company's already shared server. It was only recently his true motives became apparent. This is why I for one was outraged when he turned around and tried to operate this place like a business. So there we have it; we could migrate host and software et al quite easily if Kimble would return the club funds to the Treasurer [Jon i believe], as I believe that Kimble is not competent to handle them, and suspect he has used the funds to subsidise his own interests

Can't see whats better about that forum generally? Datmans site was on PHP and it got done over in a big way. VBulletin is like the industry standard, nothing wrong with it in my opinion, obviously it takes some time to set up against spamming as other VB sites I go on don't get the issue.

Guys, not that i own a Silvia anymore
 but you guys were all quite helpful and I don't plan on being Slivia-less forever so I'd happily offer my services gratis (i'm a web dev) if you wanted to migrate to better forum software. Invision power board is always a very popular choice. As for hosting, I tend to use Rochen, they are rock solid, the servers are always up to date and performance tuned, they have excellent and, more importantly, competent tech support and more often than not resolve a query within half an hour. They cost a bit more and don't offer as much space/bandwidth than others but there's a reason for that and it's quality. Be very caucious with firms who offer unlimited or very high amounts of space or bandwidth - the servers are usually oversold, slow and prone to hacking attempts! ..alternatively, you could go down the (virtual) dedicated server route which is nowhere near as expensive as it used to be.... http://www.ovh.co.uk/products/rps_offers.xml Last edited by nedge2k; 20-12-2009 at 22:56.

nothing wrong with VBB imo, infact most other forum software is much less pleasant to use. Nedge, I think Jon (pukka) is the best person for you to speak to if you think you can help out
