Message board idea

Post by Barry Rodewald »

I'm just wondering about the possibility of MARP switching to using those Emulation World message boards (like Retrogames, Zophar's Domain, etc...). I guess those are just my preference, already having an account (one account for all Emu World messageboards). I just wondering about any reasons for or against it. Don't think this has been asked before, but my apologies if it has.

it hasn't been asked, but what are the advantages and disadvantages
of doing so, beside the fact that it'll make your life easier :)

Well, for one, it looks much nicer...
One of the main things is that one user account is usable across all
Emulation World messageboards. Of course, HTML can be used (if the
board moderator allows it) or basic markup (for those who don't know
HTML) to add images, links whatever. Have a look at one of the EW
boards (retrogames, Zophar's, Emucamp...)

Personally, if you really want a nice message board system, you
should set up an Ultimate Bulletin Board system by Infopop. This is
probably the best web based forum system available on the internet
today. I believe there is a free version for download at
http://www.infopop.com that is fully functional, minus a few of the advanced
features.
