[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 813286, member: 20605"] Would hate to lose neg rep. It gives us a fairly good handle on who the bad posters are without have to waste time reading their garbage. TBH I don't like Xenforo at all and I will be disappointed if TRF changes to it. It looks too[I] "social media-ish"[/I] to me, and since I don't have (and never will have) a twitter account, and only use facebook exclusively to chat with family, then Xenforo's main attraction, integration with social media, is of no interest to me personally. The main feature I use every day on first opening the forum is "get-daily", which shows me all the posts made or created during the previous 24 hours (its NOT the same as the "new posts" button which does not show threads that have not been posted to since your last visit). [URL]http://www.therugbyforum.com/forum/search.php?do=getdaily[/URL] I have a link button to this page on my browser toolbar, all I do is click it and I am automatically logged into the forum at this page. As far as I can tell, Xenforo has no equivalent to this so without it I am back to wasting time trawling through sub-forums looking for the thread I was posting in yesterday. IMO, vBulletin is superior forum software by the length of the front straight, and to say that it is "outdated" is misleading. [B]We[/B] might have an outdated version (looks like ver 4.2 to me), but the latest version 5.2.2 was only released back in May of this year. [/QUOTE]
