Development Discussion Board

Whilst all of this "fancy" scrolling is admirable from a technical perspective, and possibly a challenge in development terms, I think that we are loosing sight at who all of this is aimed at - the end user, not developers, not extension/style creators, not board owners but the end user. Changing ho...

I would suggest that you use the correct terminology as I believe that you are referring to forum not a board.
