We've been considering switching to a newer bbs system as UBB has been a bit frustrating over all these years in not having capabilities and a "look and feel" we want to achieve. If you have any fav bbs systems, post them and we'll take a look. So far on this end, the Invision Power Board looks promising if we can do a conversion.

I was just going to say that I like the style of a vBulletin board I'm on....when I can get on it. I'm not sure if it's problem with vBulletin or the website though.

From my end, this board works fine. Not as feature-rich as others, but it doesn't seem to go down much (or at all) and it's one of the fastest I'm on.

Personally I really like this board and hope you keep the same format. I'm cheap and am still working with a 56k modem. Those sites with all the individualized pictures and crap...I hate 'em because it bogs my surfing down way to much.

Not sure if this is what you are asking for, but the TalkBass forum is pretty cool, and very similar to this one except you have more options.

I REALLY like the fretbuzz forums at Whotenote and Activebass though.

The only problem with Fretbuzz is that once you post something there's no way to edit it. They also have a great private message system.

This one works fine for me, I liked it previously when you could see who was logged on, while that would spur some impulsive discussion, maybe if a chat area could be added for realtime discussions....great job, kept me here almost five years now!

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

This board is nearly perfect the way it is, which means you could make alterations to the existing board to make it better, but getting a new board is unnecessary.

I also enjoy the speed of this board.
