G-forums! y prefer?
i'm sure there's many other forum scripts out there, and even with mysql backend that's a lot better than g-forums, while g-forums is a new script which meant still need many stages of debug. forums like vbulletin, wwthreads both use php and sql backend, both r very robust and flexible, so in my opion, u shouldn't consider g-forums unless there's some unique feature which this script preserver that no other forum scripts have.

wwwThreads is a given. vBulletin apparently has a hellish beta cycle were each version is as buggy as the last. phorum / and phpBB are ones to watch out for. phpBB escpecially. php / mySQl equipped with speeds to match. hmmm ... does G-Forum calculate page creation? phpBB can pump pages out in like 0.01 seconds .. browser is what slows it down.

Apparently what G-Forum has is a backend that uses similar (same) scripts as G-Mail / LinksSQL /DBManSQL, what was it that Eliot said ... something about it being more than just software. If so G-Forum will roll all over UBB and many others.

hmmm ... I now have 2 software packages to wait for impaitently.
OS X 10.1 and G-Forums








openoffice + gimp + sketch ... Smile

You can easily insert some code into gforum.cgi to do so. Alex and Jason were doing it before putting it live to look for places that needed optimization. Under mod_perl, gawd it just fliiiieees :)
