It's a pain to go to the end of a long thread.

Many don't track what's "new" for you (though this one does).

Nothing is locked in stone.

Anyboard was not going to work any more.

Feel free to look around and find the best forum software for our particular needs.

I would prefer it to be free or inexpensive and i would prefer it to use php and mysql.
