- The first paragraph seems to be talking about forums but saying ‘forum software’. I don’t believe that software is a group of people.
To us, forum software is a group of people interested in a common topic who are willing to type paragraphs to each other on a web page.
- The text after this feels like it lacks a point that it’s supposed to be trying to make. I think it needs a rewrite (not that I’d be any help with that).
Right now when you install a brand new forum, what you get is a virtual tin shack in a wasteland. It’s up to you to build up civilization from scratch every single time. …
It’s like: “Most of them fail, making ghost towns. But with better software, we can make…uhhhh… better ghost towns?”. As the team themselves have said, the success of a forum largely depends on the community, and it’s a shame that people have been stuck with the old crappy forum software. Anyway, that part needs a rewrite.
