cmon guys you can do better!

The stats will likely increase when the new forums are finalized. For now, it's somewhat unlikely. Try checking the stats again until then.

That won't help us stress test the forums, though.

Looks like they're already stressed enough from 35.

I clicked on Off Topic. Waited 2 minutes. Closed the tab.

Conclusion: Needs work.

If the forums are running a bit slow for most of you, could it be that both the beta and current AT forums are running on the same server/host? Just a thought.

I like it better here.

Huh? The Fusetalk forums are running perfectly fast. The VB forums are unusable.

If they're running VB on a Windows box (FT is ASP.net) then the admins are even more stupid than I thought.

I hate it. I might actually quit ATOT once the switch is complete.

 

[KeypoX]

wow looks like every other generic forum on the net.

 

[lupi]

and the stupid shit settings that everyone complained about last time they opened it up are still there, yeah no thanks.

Don't be a dick, I'm sure they're far stupider than you think.

I didn't know it was going on, should I convert?

I was thinking thinking the same thing. Should make some people happy.

vB may have a working search function, but fusetalk has a superior layout IMO

Change scares me. I don't like change. It's nice, cozy and warm here.

Um, what's the payoff? What are the ups/downs of this. That first page looks scary:

Use this page to convert your FuseTalk forums login information to our new vBulletin forums.

Get the idea I'm jumping into something and there's no way back. Without a reason to take the plunge, a single stinking reason, why should I?

I just signed up. I like V-bulletin 100 times better than these old crappy fusetalk ones. I've always hated these boards anandtech uses.

We need custom avatars though. This isn't 1990 anymore. And I hope that we can post pictures like every single other forum on the planet.

Custom avatars is something we do not need.

I don't need search. If they wanted to fix the search in fusetalk they could! You better believe it. I can search my own Forums folder in my email client, works for me.

You have forum threads in your email client?...why would you want to go and do something like that for?

 

[alkemyst]

why go to vB when they are not using any of it's features?

 

[bruceb]

Did not know it was up and working yet. Trying it out now. Looks nice.
My post count is not quite correct ... about 14 or so off. And I can't select
or upload an avatar, but this is a beta forum and it may not be turned on yet.

because it doesn't time warp, the search works, and the moderation tools aren't a joke. Oh yeah and the people who make the software actually give two shits and fix things in a timely manner.

Yeah, this switch might be the end of ATOT for me. I hate VB's layout and it is just something I can not get past.
