My Theory on forum locking

Want to chit chat about anything, do it here ... posting here won't increase your post count (or shouldn't!). Please do not post any "phpBB" specific topics here unless they do not fit into the category above. Do not post bug reports, feature or support requests!

Post by smigit »

And we'll get all the "I downloaded the file now what do I do?" questions. People should get banned for posting stupid questions before touching the DOCs.

At the same time, it seems unrealistic to keep two mainstream phpBB boards alive. This stays a development forum, and phpbb.com gets those of us who moved here back.

Thing is, they're not keeping two separate mainstream boards, unless I've heavily misunderstood. It's gonna be all-in-one.

Well, that's what I mean. This forum has for all pratical purposes divided the phpBB community in two, just because of the time we've been here and not there. That seems impractical to keep up.
