    Other Which surprises me a little.

    Thanks for the tip. I was thinking more along the lines of good graphical implementations of TradeWars 2002, Usurper, Falcon's Eye, Lord, etc. There's already a FreeCIV in PHP, and a Civilization spin-off by Sid Meier. So, more like sophisticated adaptations of already well-known online door...

    Other Which surprises me a little.

    I wish you all a nice day! Even if I get stoned again (I fully expect it), I have another question for the community. After spending some time with XenForo, I was wondering why more "online" games aren't offered or programmed? Now, you could say... well, that's not what a forum is for. But my...

    Style Maybe a "silly" question

    This can be interpreted in different ways. The idea is simply to remind the user which language to write in. I deliberately chose two main categories because most sysops are unlikely to be from German-speaking regions, but with the intention of being able to better promote the hobby to...

    Style Maybe a "silly" question

    It's always a matter of perspective. In principle, I agree with you, but 1. I'm not Facebook, and 2. I listen to the users what they suggest. I change or expand what I can (provided it's financially and technically feasible)! Variety has never hurt anyone, and the users should feel...

    Style Maybe a "silly" question

    Hmm. I absolutely don't dispute that, and that's why I bought it back then (considering the price/performance ratio, it was certainly a good deal). I see the different styles as a service I want to offer users who are coming from other forum software. I'm also convinced that these users will...

    Style Maybe a "silly" question

    The question isn't whether I want to use it! If it were up to me, I'd call it unnecessary. I'm simply responding to user requests and trying to find a solution. The guest is king! ;)

    Style Maybe a "silly" question

    Okay... That is an answers, thank you Risca. I probably agree with you! I'll have to see (around $200) if it's worth it to me. But it's great to read that with XenForo can do some amazing things. Amazing, of course, is always subjective!

    Style Maybe a "silly" question

    Thank you! Then the only question that remains is: Who would ever want to do that to themselves? 😇😉

    Style Maybe a "silly" question

    Dear Sir! 1st: It was a question if possible (I don't see any problem with a simple and politely phrased question) 2nd: Xenforo should look like phpBB and WoltLab (I specifically wrote that the meaning should not be questioned). Assuming your consent, I would like to categorize your answer as...

    Add-on IRC Connector

    The morning shouldn't be ended without the next question from me! 😇 ;) Previously, there was XenHabla v1.0.8 (I think), which was intended as a link to IRC. I have already tried unsuccessfully to contact the programmer at the time! I have no idea if this tool actually worked back then. In any...

    Style Maybe a "silly" question

    Hello to everybody and a nice weekend to you! I'm having again a brainfart (sorry), but I wanna ask the Style Creators here. I would like to offer the option to change the appearance of XenForo so that it looks like (or exactly ???) 1. phpBB 2. WoltLab And before the ****storm potentially...

    XF 2.4 XenForo 2.4 status and what's new under the hood?

    That was my mistake! Thought the "open" discussion on this would be welcome! Then I'll concentrate on reading only again! Also good!;)😇

    XF 2.4 XenForo 2.4 status and what's new under the hood?

    It is and always will be a balancing act for developers as to where a product will go! But I'd also like to point out one thing here. I'm very happy with XenForo and have never regretted the purchase!! I must admit, though, that I'm a complete newbie to this software! Getting started was...

    XF 2.4 XenForo 2.4 status and what's new under the hood?

    I agree with all what you've said and maybe... and/or I hope, that the developer of XenForo hear this, too. There are always several ways to respond to the needs of customers for a product. Unfortunately, there's no single right way! But I agree, working on two versions of a program is...
