146024 2003-05-22 03:56:00 But remember PF1 is aimed at people who are new to this. Forums like the one you mentioned have a lot of features that are probably intimidating to newbies.

Compare the number of buttons & images on a PF1 thread to the ones on the above site.

146025 2003-05-22 04:05:00 Like I said. Open Source forums are highly customisable with features easily toggled on and off. And if you go into the source code and remove the function.

You can make the forum as simple to use as the present PF1 forum or make it like Fort Knox if you prefer.

146026 2003-05-22 04:07:00 Well there are other forum packages but I don't think that there are many that work on the plat form that they're wanting. Being Linux and JSP.

Also if it never broke occasionally don't you think they'd get a bit bored not having something to do ]:)

They looked at other packages before they made the transition to this one. I don't think they'd be changing it in a hurry at a guess.

146027 2003-05-22 04:15:00 I think this forum is Open Source, not too sure & because they have customised this forum so much they can’t upgrade. stu140103 (137)

146029 2003-05-22 05:10:00 I can get into this thread on the first page. But the Java isn't behaving again. Only three threads, partially displayed. The dreaded Null Pointer again.

Oh dear. :_|

146031 2003-05-22 05:20:00 Gronk :D

It happened the moment I clicked on a thread to open it, but I didn't do it, honest.

And to the knockers, please leave PF1 alone, we like it the way it is. Nothing like an occasional null pointer to bring the community together. I agree with the comments about how user friendly it is, I have given up on some Forums which just too hard to understand, and the contributors are not very helpful either.:(

Go for it Bruce, the gnomes of IDG will ferret out the problem so long as we keep crashing it to give logs to read.]:)

Cheers

146033 2003-05-22 06:45:00 This nullpointer error thing has to be good for the soul, it helps to make people think out their problem for themselves, which is what Press F1 is supposed to be about. :D Terry Porritt (14)
