I'm surprised to have gotten this strong of a reaction Ava Send a noteboard - 10/05/2011 12:30:21 AM
I have to admit, I'm pretty surprised that people feel this strongly about this style. When I made my suggestion, I expected it to be glanced over, get maybe one or two replies, and then be forgotten about. I had no idea that anybody would feel this strongly about it, much less react like a spinster aunt hugging her last beanie baby. It's pretty clear from the strength of the reaction that the board style will probably not get changed, so I'll gracefully bow out and let it go. I still don't have your level of appreciation for the merits of the popular style (the current one) over the unpopular style (phpbb, which is my baby), but as I've said elsewhere, I come to RAFO (and wotmania before that) because I enjoy the content of the discussions, regardless of the format.
