It's known Kier is whacking away at 2.0
He's beavering away, Mr. Edge, not whacking away
Curse me and my dirty brains
Conversely the entire reason that 2.0 was announced when it was (although we acknowledge it may have seemed a tad too soon)
Well, things happen. Operations with XenForo are huge, I cannot even compare by community to what XenForo does... but we made the same mistake, on a smaller case. We "announced" something way too soon, users got excited, hyped, looked forward to it to the point of even stopping activity at certain instances. We ran into complications, multiple, during said announced plan becoming reality. Eventually, we provided (so late, that people started comparing that announced material to Half Life 3!) - and the users loved it, but due to the long wait and delay, there was a little "disappointment" - although less, it was present.
I do not blame the team at XenForo for announcing XenForo 2.0 when they announced. And what's done is done, even if the team acknowledge it may have been tad too soon, big deal.
"The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, But in ourselves, that we are underlings." - and on that note, let people call me a fanboy, ****er or whatever they want to. I have believed, I do believe, and I will continue to believe in XenForo. If I've ever felt true love, it's for XenForo
(ok... let my special someone not read this or else I'd be in some deep trouble... )
I started out with XenForo 5 years back, yes things in the community were much livelier back then, I mean what made XenForo Community special for me was the developer interaction. I even made a thread saying I love XenForo Community more than my own, and visited it more too, but things happen. It happened with me, as well. My community was left without my presence and communication, it still lacks it in a way but I do my best because I noticed users having that little more zeal, being that little more happier, and continuing what they do best with that little more of a smile on their faces when I am around and I talk to everyone and contribute in discussions. I guess, it's just the love they have for me and they see me or respect me as someone for having founded my community? I can never come to an answer, but in this case - my love for the XF Development team was what made this community even more special. I mean, it's still special, not saying its not, and I love the fact that even you interact a lot, and more often. But maybe the charm that we saw is what the old users miss. I remember Kier responding to a lot of suggestions, off-topic posts, etc. Once again, not saying the developers should concentrate more on community building but meh, some of the complains people have could be due to that.
Anyways, XenForo is a good product, and I could
not have selected anything better. It's one of my proudest decisions, and now that my community isn't small and has grown into a mid-ranged forum with 1,000,000+ posts, I will repeat my statement as many times as needed, I don't think we'd have got to where we are if it weren't for XenForo. So keep it up, and there will always be negative comments, reviews or just in general some negativity out there as you cannot please everyone, but you got one really satisfied & more than happy XenForo customer here.
Maybe I am a fanboy? - please pass on this sentiments of mine to Mike & Kier too
I remember sending them a conversation with my thanks in the past, but I'm not the best with my words or expressing my emotions.
It's done manually (by me).
If it's done by you, it's not manual at all. What a bunch of lies.
XenForo has the most advanced mod installed, BroBot 9000. Freaking Jason Stathman was so impressed by BroBot 9000 that he copied you.
