We really love this forum software... [:@]

Vitani

We should all get together and write our own forum/blog software,
either that, or one awful one that somehow works, but when you look at
the source it makes you say "WTF?!!?!"

Katja

Well, I just said WTF when I saw the above error. All I did was click
on the '2' in the bottom of some topic to go to the next page. And
BOOM! This error occurred... Oh, well... It's beta software...

Irrelevant

I'm with Vitani. I've been on a couple of forums where the resident
gurus wrote the forum software, and in both cases, it's been more
robust, faster, and less... rococo than this one. Also, the people who knew the code were right there, so the features that people actually wanted got implemented.

I think we need to get our nagging of Alex to get a new engine organised. Mebbe start a thread with that in mind?

Right now, I'm just patiently awaiting the release of the next version of this software. This platform has the potential to be really good (I'm talking Ubb/PhpBB good). But were using Beta 1 right now. RC1 is out, which means the release version can't be too far behind. Don't worry, it'll be here soon enough ...

Besides, I really don't feel like trying to fix the bugs in this software ... it's not fun. I would rather spend the time doing the on-the-side consulting work (not so fun, but I get paid) or doing some work for my other hobby site ...

Katja

Your other hobby site? Do you mean you actually have another hobby than collecting WTF's? [:P]

You betcha. It's a continuous work in progress that started off years ago as a school project and just kept growing. http://www.myadventuregame.com

Katja

Adventure games? For once I'm not even suprised about that... [:)]

My dad used to be addicted to a game called NetHack. When I was little he would stay up to late in the night trying to climb down some dungeon, collect gold and gems, beat up the wizard at the bottom and steal an amulet and then he'd go back up again.

When I got older, it became one of the first computer games I've played, while there already were quite a few other games. I still like this game, although I've managed to finish it completely already so the fun is a bit over. I kicked the wizard's ass, slayed dragons, collected a gazillion dollars worth of gold and made it back to the top again...

If it sounds interesting to you, the game is freeware and you can download it from http://www.nethack.org but keep in mind that it's a turn-based game and very different from those modern games. It's a lot more variable and it takes a lot of time to finish the game without dying and with the amulet...

This is completely off-topic, but what does this mean?

I wonder how many times such a thing has been suggested. I know how many times it has been done, of course.

At what point do we stop with the buggy beta forum software?

In a world where Google has built an empire on buggy beta software? I'm not hopeful…
