Dunno why it is happening but twice already I received system error messages. Not sure what version of phpBB3 this board runs on but maybe better software might be an option? Maybe Bobby could post a query on the phpBB3 support forum?

Post a screenshot.
I also get error messages after posting but it's rare.

Christ, phpBB3 has become awful software! Clunky and disgusting looking. I noticed that when I uploaded the real PA to the latest phpBB3 version to export to XenForo. We didn’t use it much before the export happened but i see now how horrible it is!

I am not suggesting we move to XenForo, in case anyone was thinking I was suggesting that—it is commercial software and I doubt FD wants to spend the money or go through the learning curve.

Any suggestions for better software?

I am suggesting new software to run the forum be considered. You should welcome positive criticism or you will kill this place pretty damn quick!

Not only does it look awful it is clunky. Why not look on the phpBB site for comment on the current version?

Monk - there are no plans to change the software.
Will you ever be happy?
