FYI....On Thursday, January 18, 2024 the forum will be down for 2 or 3 hours, sometime during the course of that day, while we investigate the possibility of upgrading the forum to a more current version.

Should be fun figuring out new buttons, I'll try not to push too many ;)

Also, count me in to see upgrades to this form, especially having options to like other peoples messages and easily post images among other needs. It would make the forum a lot more enjoyable!

Honestly, even if everything was the exact same but I could post from my phone without the end result looking wonky, I'd be very happy.

On the other hand, this format makes me nostalgic for the early 2000s internet I grew up on, lol.

A mobile version and the ability to like or react to posts would be cool. But I also love the look and feel of the site (though hate the crashes that have happened over the past couple of years).

The main thing will be UTF8 support... that will make many cut & paste & Apple posters happy, and allow the rest of us not to see ? everywhere.  And better mobile support would be gravy.

Other than that, I'll miss the ol' forum if it changes drastically.  I think the SSK one is uuggglly.

Hopefully it improves the bomber forum crashing

Some more modern features would be nice and would add to the user experience.
