All of these optionsalways look good to some boards you may have visited or played with in tests. The big difference is always in traffic and size of the thread base. FlyerTalk has near 800,000 posts and growing as fast as ever. Actually if you look closely at any big board our size (there's not a lot of them) that use UBB you'll notice that alot of them have not even upgraded to version 6.0 because while that version is great for smaller boards, it melts for the big boys. Again, we constantly are looking at solutions and they all look great as eye candy, but once filled up with FT, they just can't seem to handle the load. Remember, we're pushing some 200 gigs of data a month on this thing. Please keep letting us know of things you are seeing out there. Thanks.
