LeftistMuslimObama posted:like, the only downside of just moving to a different commercial forums package was that some of the hacked-on features might not be portable. but since they're constantly complaining that half these features are broken and barely work im not sure that's such a loss. This. Stop wasting money for something that will never be finished or finished poorly and just move the user base to xenforo and archive the current forum. The new forum will be filled with shitposts in days.

Is that the guy that was banned after he told lowtax it would cost at least tens of thousands to fix the forums?

skull mask mcgee posted:why the gently caress wouldn't lowtax just use xenforo? surely it'd be cheaper and more sensible to pay someone to write plugins for whatever bespoke functionality needs to be carried over Seriously just do this and archive the current forum. New place will be filled with shitposts in a day. Stop wasting money on coders that will quit halfway through the job.

rear end posted:Yeah but why not seamlessly migrate in order to include already existing threads and the archives? It'd be a smoother experience for everyone. Because it's difficult, expensive, and will take a long time to do. If lowtax decides to migrate to xenforo he's going to be surprised how much it will cost to pay someone competent to do it and how long it will take eric fucked around with this message at 07:59 on Feb 26, 2017 |

At least lowtax figured him out in a few months instead of a few years like radium.

Sweevo posted:unfortunately this is what half the forum actually believes They say that but how many people would really leave? You would just have a bunch of reposts and continuations on the new board. Instead lowtax wants the xenforo team to migrate this rats nest of code and it's going to cost a lot for their time.

I think the migration has been put on the back burner now that lowtax has a new gaming garbage partner.

Syllables posted:how dead is SA compared to 6 years ago It's certainly less active. There are so few new registrations now and most people being banned aren't coming back. Lowtax is correct when he says no one is buying anything anymore. Syllables posted:are there people who have consistently posted on SA for 20 years I've been here since 2001 and have consistently poo poo posted.

funny Star Wars parody posted:the forums are probably worth 250k if we're being extremely generous and if the buyer doesn't do any due diligence He'd be lucky to get 100k for it. I don't blame him for not selling when they bring in just enough to pay the monthly nut and you've got free employees.
