New forum woo

Looks pretty. I wonder if the spam bots will like it.

We will see

I think there are better plugins to keep them out in node bb as it is more modern.

Soon™️

It is so nice and easy to use. Looks very well so far.

The old one was very unintuative if you asked me but I also did not use it much.

Managing groups and subforums was such a pain ^^
Also it wasn't useable with the mobile phone at all.

I'm happy we have a forum that works properly on mobile. But we're in desperate need of an actual design.

Most of these nodeBB forum places have custom themes that can solve all the issues I see here. I sent a message off to Brutus about helping to create one. If you can do CSS, please do the same.

Holy cow this new forum is ubersexy. Also, great to see the inevitable and unstoppable march of progress and improvement for FAF 😀

The response time is just amazing. Due to being a single page application and not reloading the page each time, this thing is so blazingly fast and light weight.

Having issues with connectivity / ICE? Talk to me.

The old one reminded me of the good old days on the GPG forums but that's no reason not to move to something more modern.

@foodlfg You can, and no anime bullshit, thanks

@foodlfg The forum name is your FAF player name. If you change your FAF name your forum name will get updated.

Okay. Why new?

I added a post on why we selected NodeBB
