I haven't been a regular here for a while, but I came back today as I am about to start a new weight loss campaign... and ARGH... this is horrible!
vBulletin was bad enough (ugly outdated), but this is really awful unintuitive software, please consider using something like Xenforo which is brand spanking state of the art new, super engaging and has a fabulous User Interface, or Invision Power Board either of which are professional forum software, which you can integrate advertising into quite easily ... or at worse go back to vBulletin, even that would be better than this which seems like non-professional "free" forum software.
Sorry I won't be sticking around with this software, and the dumb circa 2001 postbit style... no one is doing userinfo on the top of posts anymore, it's a hangover from small screen fixed width styles.
