    Is it me or does bd2w's bored format suck? Maybe it changes when you join but I hate having to scroll down past all the comments I've already read a thousand times (but not too far or you'll go too far) and hit "load more comments" multiple times

    I thought Vanilla was the worst. I was wrong.
    This board is the easiest to read and navigate out of all the UW boards.
    Sark > Ty POTD.

    That's an awfully small sample size of shit boards. Plus I disagree, and UWDP is better in some ways (Z key). And that's not even getting into features/$, at which Vanilla sucks dick, and random threads on which I can't post (about one per day) because it insists on making that comment await moderation that never happens. There are a LOT more boards on the web than just Husky football boards, many of them way bigger and more customized than HH, and made with free open source forum software (phpbb). It's not hard.
    @DerekJohnson can probably help with this.
    He shouldn't have to. It should just work. And we shouldn't have to completely revamp the moderation system because Vanilla just decides they don't want downvotes to be a feature anymore. For that kind of money, Derek should decide what he does and doesn't want on his forum.
    I completely agree it should work but it doesn’t and that is a stain on the taint of vanilla

    Vanilla deserves a lot of shit for their fucking pussyfooted can’t see who downvoted bullshit. But is is by far better than the other shit that other forums are using.

    My phone downloads 30 megs worth of bullshit just bringing up the main forum page. Dark shit.

    The site and format is shit.

    They need more tim. 2022 will be special. As we say, LIPO

    Imagine your poor phone if we had sigs again.

    UW made it to the playoffs because we had sigs on these forums. Haven't been back since. People forget these things.

    These forums have always been fine on Android and iOS even with sigs.

    There was an option to disable sigs on mobile

    what have I said a million times? If you get a message about a comment needing moderation, it is the automated filter. I've said to send me a PM and I can go into your account and take care of it.

    And it’s not even close.
    We should buy Stalin an Aurora Avenue hooker to celebrate his good technical choices. Extra 20 so he can go around the world.

    I like vanilla fine. I love how easy it is to embed stuff. It took me about 5 years to try as I assumed I'd have to learn something new and didn't feel like it. I was pleasantly surprised though.

    I'm not a fan of the aesthetics on BDTW but it's easy enough to navigate. I doubt I'll use their forums but I imagine they'd give me something to bitch about.

    If I had made a cool teen boi stalking rap, tried to embed the soundcloud, and it auto-moderated, I might actually go through that hassle. But I don't think anybody wants to see my MS Paint masterpieces badly enough to bother with it.

    Do you know what the automated filter flags, though? Maybe if I know what it's looking for, I can avoid it in the future like Baze wearing whiteface and Dockers to get through the TSA line.
