I've been on other forums, but Esato's the only one that I browse and post on regularly. The others just do not have the same feel and attractiveness. It'll be great if we could just tick a checkbox to bookmark a thread while we're composing our replies. It's been suggested before. Anyway, it seems the original poster has left after dissing our forum.

I ESATO

i admitt this too....basically, esato is pure and simple forumming. i never knew it was based on phpBB before today though, i thought that laffen / whoever else had coded from hand

but yeh...it's amasing that it's just sooooo simple and easy to use. the basics are there, and nothing more is needed really. if it was upgraded to whats on some other forums, i wouldn't post here. simple as that.

I think its okay the way it is, I would not have a problem with vbulletin, in the same breath as someone said most websites are using vbulletin so being different isnt bad.

It is an vhery old version of phpBB with lots of moding on it and a homemade or moded template. Not sure wich version it is though but thats not important.

On the bottom of each sites it says:
This forum is base on phpBB.

Im not sure but i think there is a wrong typing as it says base instead of based

This is topic that occasionally creeps up on Esato...sometimes the format of the forum annoys the hell out of me.

Why can't members choose their own avatars and why no small images in signatures...nothing like the craziness over at HoFo. The rule should still apply that you need to be logged on to view images.

I'm actually glad we cant upload out own avatars. it keeps the board from looking too trashy. this is a SE forum, and if we could upload out own, the avatars would go crazy.

as for everything else. i love the way esato is layed out. its not too flashy, its not too complicated, it loads fast, everything is perfect. maybe not perfect, but its a 9 out of 10. its better than other forums.

Its good to be back!
