Ich liebe NGU!
If you weren't around in early 2011, here's what the site looked like, and what every member had to deal with:
You must login or register to view this content.
You must login or register to view this content.
You must login or register to view this content.
You must login or register to view this content.
Gone are those days, when there was a LOT more ridiculous drama than there is now.
I know that because I have a whopping 106 posts and virtually no rep, my opinion doesn't mean much, but as a fellow forum administrator, I have to say, Outsider/Travis, beautiful job with this thing, and I hope I'm around when we finally reach our LONG-awaited goal of 1,000,000 registered members.

It certainly was. I still cannot believe shiver just deleted his account. It's nice to have the owner around though. Always bothers me a bit when the owner isn't around.
You're not a forum admin either, are you? :p
You and me both, brother.

I owned a forum 3-1/2 years ago based around Runescape. It was a MyBB forum and I had about 1.5k registered members. Lasted about 2 months before it got shut down due to "copyright violations".
I had about 50 people go onto the forums each day actively. It was about botting, trading, bot serial sharing etc, hacking accounts, etc.
About as far as I ever got with creating and owning a forum. Never had ads on the site and just set it up and monitored it. Kinda became a small underground forum.

Just wanted to praise all of the active members, and of course the past and present staff, for their work done on the site. It looks absolutely fantastic and far more professional than it had looked in the past.

Fuck professionalism, forums are supposed to be a fun place to go and communicate with other members based upon common interest. Unless we were selling some huge product and were the byproduct of that, professionalism isn't exactly needed.
A clean well developed site is something I root for but to aim for professionalism makes it sound like a business.

that's always been my stand on this site. People can't take jokes anymore. Well anymore haven't since probably 2011.
