That's what I thought too, but when I asked that question in the facebook thread, people said that was incorrect.

Curse you, Mark Zuckerberg!!!111 :rage:

I think you're right now. I may have changed my mind over time. Some of us spend way too much time online and will do FB and messageboards. I value mb's because of the deeper conversations you can have (and the greater privacy). But others only spend time on one or the other, and I think FB is the primary "other" now.

I have been on a number of messageboards, and any with a regular user-ship of less than around 50 has all but shut down. This is one of the more active ones. I definitely think they've lost a lot of people to facebook. On such a vast board as TORC, such a dent would be less noticeable, but I'm sure it's there.

I'm going to upgrade the board software to the latest version of phpbb sometime soon, perhaps this weekend. So if you log on and find the board is temporarily shut down, that's why.

We now have the latest version of phpbb. So far I haven't noticed any difference, except that the admin board no longer nags us to update to the latest version of phpbb. :D

We have the latest version of phpbb (the message board software) but not the latest version of php (that server technology that runs the software). We have 5.2.17, and the latest version is 5.4.8. I don't know how important this is.

I changed the width of the youtube tag to 640 (it used to be 450). I noticed that the videos lately are widescreen, and they looked squashed on our site.

If you see anything strange, let us know - it can always be adjusted or changed back!
