Forums?

[Bloodrun]

I don't know how many of you guys are avid forum users.

But to those who are. What are some things in forums you just can't live without? And what are those pesky little things you could live without? And last but not least, what is, that you have always wanted to see in a forum. But time after time, just never shows up?

You may be asking yourself why the heck do I care.
...I care.. I care alot..

Lol no, the reason I am asking is because I am making a forum for the Adoptables Script, and yeah having the basic nessicities(sp?) of a forum is great, but I want to go above and beyond. And with one of the new features I am adding (you'll just have to wait and see) I will be doing that. But I want more things to add to it =D

Oh, if you would like to see the latest update to the forum, go here:

Quick reply box is something I can't live without! Ajax functions are great for improving usability too...

What is ajax?

[Ajof]

Its a way of sending and retrieving data from the server without reloading the page. Like here with MyBB the quick edit feature presents an edit box and then on submit it sends it off to the server and makes the edit, all without reloading the page once.

Avid forum? :/
I only have a PHPbb forum. But if that was what you meant - I could live without the Quick Reply box. :)

Other than this forum I'm on the deviantART.com forums (as fireflyx), the Daz3D.com forums (as pyerflyrenders) and the MTGSalvation and Yugioh Card Maker forums as tequilacorbly (I'm listed as away on YCM though, the adoptable site takes way too much of my time now).
