What we really need is a really good feed of suggested topics and an email campaign to reveal them. Reddit absolutely mastered this. I used to be an occasional Reddit … then the emails came and they were relevant and fun and I enjoy getting that email. Actually, I mostly just go direct to Reddit now.
Why are we migrating to new forum software?
-
Im not a techy but most of it sounds good.
I can think of a few sites i prefer nonmobile because its easier to navigate.
Scrolling is great on threads with a few posts, but when going through 50 plus pages i prefer pages. I can pick up where i left of and know what page to find something again.Thanx for all your work and effort!!
Discourse actually will keep track of your last unread post so you can jump to it when you revisit a thread. It’s really slick.

These forums do that now. Or at least my browser does.
Endless scrolling sites are still a nightmare though - especially if you ever switch between mobile and non mobile devices;
I am curious to see discourse in it’s proposed format; though I suspect it will not be as convenient to navigate - especially with the older games section, and more derelict parts of the site.
We don’t have a choice in the matter it seems. :evil:

The search function is very nice.
Registration is close and I have not migrated anything and there’s not branding but here it is: forums.axisandallies.org
That is also not the permanent URL BTW.

Interesting - Panther says things are “clearly arranged” but I don’t see anything other than uncategorized threads. and LOL I love that one of the two threads I can see is that security is not enabled :)
I’d also like to try alternate themes - like panther - who’s correct that the white is blinding.
Can you allow a few of us to register to test things out? I’d also like to fool with tripleA to get it to post.

TripleA is not integrated with the forums yet.
Which post about security can you see?
I haven’t set up any categories or boards on there yet. I know people are concerned about multiple categories per post but I think solves issues like “does this belong in house rules or Global 1942?”

Yeah, I went looking for it.
I think I need to adjust some settings on the site. I’m not getting email notifications about activity on the board like I should be.

Ah yes - lets work on/out the bugs before we migrate haha.
Else you will end up with a Canadian Pheonix Pay Scandal.
