Thinking of switching over to xenForo forum software.

Okay so phpbb is pretty limited in what it can do and i have been watching xenForo closely http://xenforo.com/community/, it may be $140 but it's money i'm willing to spend for GOL, it's such a pleasure to use!

Have a look and let me know what you think, it just seems more err up to date with how the web is phpbb seems very...old?

I am building my own software in my spare time too but it's noway near ready for use on a production site - mainly a project for me to learn more about php and mysql (a fair amount of code from it was used to build GOL!). Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

From my point of view the current GOL website and forums seems fine, what do you want to add/change that you can't do with phpbb but can with xenForo ?
