Thank you for making the site such a useful resource. We cannot exist without members!
Thanks for letting us be up here.

We are upgrading to vBulletin 3.7, which includes some very great features. (Some of which we have already but will be improved.)

More info here:

vBulletin 3.7 First Look! - vBulletin Community Forum

I've been working very closely with the development studio that is designing the overhaul of our design, and I can say firsthand it looks great. I'd be very surprised if anyone here doesn't like it. I won't post any screens here since its not done. I am so pleased with the design itself that I feel even posting it may inspire someone to copy our design.

We use many plugins on our site which most people don't see. Many of these new plugins won't be needed with the upgrade, and people will be able to customize certain things which is very exciting. I believe this will very much improve the overall experience for the regulars here.

Much of the work we are doing now is to keep the forum modern and appealing, sure, but also useful and relevant. I'll keep this discussion in mind once these changes are complete. I'm sure you won't be disappointed!

Re: Unregistered Posters
Humm,
some day I just might come down that way for a brief visit. Your right that is a biggie dog. Me, I got a biggie cat (38 lbs), and a small dog (not that small 45 lbs). I see what you guys mean about unregistered posters. It does seem to create problems, doesn't it.

You have a real nice forum here and I for one hope it only gets better. So I certainly see why there are rules and why they need to be obeyed.
