I am in the middle of a facelift for the forums and it should be up in 7 days. In the meantime and ideas from you seasoned forumers would be greatly appreciated!

hmm right, I dont know whether this is possible here or not, but it would be a good idea to have a "Quick Reply" option on the same page as the thread replies. Its actually quick..lol

That is a good idea but I don't think that is a feature of phpbb but they may have an add-on for it. You are thinking of a VBulletin feature.

There's plenty of add-ons that do this. I'll get one installed in the next week or so.

Why don't you create an RSS feed that keeps the visitor here rather then sending them away to another site? You could also register your feed with numerous directories which will bring in more traffic and it will also serve as a element of search engine marketing.

We've had a problem (that I created) that kept us from moving forward. Prior to today, if you attempted to use the login form at the bottom of the page it would break. This problem carried itself forward and kept us from posting in the update version of the template. (it was because I didn't close a form properly Embarassed)

I'll see what I can get done today.
