Ok. You know what? That's not what I said. That's not ever what I said. I said it was not ABSOLUTELY NEEDED. That's all. I even gave you the point saying that, yeah, XF should probably allow multiple prefixes. I also never once said even that XF shouldn't have a CMS. I just said that, again, it wasn't absolutely necessary. That's it. That's literally all. Is a forum more inconvenient in some ways for content management? Yeah, it is. Would a lot of potential business customers also greatly love the inclusion of a CMS. Yeah, they would. And I understand all that and agree. But I would ALSO say that the forum format also has its own strengths here that I feel are getting overlooked.
Also, why do you think Reddit staff is allowed to be such an ******* in the internet space? Because they have years and years of accumulated discussion and knowledge and they know it. A ton of very valuable data that companies are now salivating over. And that was accomplished through the forum format. (Though I would also argue that Reddit's voting system infected everything like a cancer.)
Do you think that attitude has been changing lately or are they still like that?
And that’s the problem. You can’t imagine it therefore it shouldn’t exist.

Though they are a fine lesson in how to be an ivory tower that utterly refuses to listen to the community’s needs or wants.
