Starting fresh might actually be better! WE can make everything more professional and i'm quite sure that when a guest see's us using a professional board they will wish to join. ^_^

Rather than scrap everything why not just make everything 'professional' now?

What do you mean by 'professional' anyway?

Well the IPB board is for the "bigger" forums such as RSC and has a lot more professional features to it such as what Cody has said.

To be honest, at the minute to only feature which that forum has which this forum doesn't have which I think would be useful is the 'Global Announcements' option.

Not being an admistrator, I don't know about the other facilities.

I suppose we could. There are many more tools with IPB. We could simply close this site after a week of changing over and restoring post count for people. Then everything is well. :O
