not a metal fence

Many have tried but you just can't get the desired Brown Sound™ from a metal fence...

Great move. I have been studying up on these guys for awhile. They were actually a part of VB, and didn't like the lack of attention to detail, so they went off on their own.

I have hated VB since the beginning. In fact, I got rid of it with the DDLR site, and went to a UBB.

I had my eye on XenForo since last summer. Then my Mom got sick and all that research, etc... went out the window. After she passed, I started studying again and seriously starting toying with the idea. Even got a demo XenForo a few times. A couple of months ago I said to myself "Go for it".

I feel like I did when I first got a MAC. Never going back to Windows. Same thing. Never going back to vBull(shit).

Do you find it faster?

It's faster to ban somebody, lol

Do you find it faster?

Yes.

But, just like anything else depends on the amount of hacks and the coding of them.

I'm sure if you stuff a XenForo site with many hacks that aren't coded efficiently it'll cough.

Do you find it faster?

That's a simple question with a very complicated answer...

That would depend on the size and complexity of your database... if it's clean and well indexed. But a bigger factor is your hosting IMO... shared server or dedicated server makes a huge difference plus what level of network bandwidth you're purchasing... if you have the traffic to even consider a higher than regular tier.

From what I've read xenfro is very well coded and has a pretty robust database engine compared to vBulletin. As far as off the shelf add-ons and the ability to customize it... I'm not sure I like it's admin interface any better. From a cost and performance basis I still find phpBB a better option...

[Seshmeister]

It's not that complicated.

I didn't say 'is it faster?' I asked Bob if he found it faster.

I'm sure the database here is far far bigger but no harm in asking.

[Seshmeister]

I have no faith in that...

I'm out of here anyway, for good...

My broadband contract is up in less than 30 days and that's it for me...

My wife and I are selling our property, relocating and basically staying offline for good...

So swamp properties are harder to sell than you hoped?



I blame climate change...
