You'd have to think that's next for them. Although I believe it took forever to go from 1.6 to 1.8. And a number of features didn't transfer over.
I've been impressed with xenforo. If myBB doesn't improve, I'd consider that. I haven't done a ton of research into it yet, although preliminary reading yields positive reviews.

I had to translate this from Mac-ese. On a PC it's a mid-click.

At least from a user perspective, xenforo is quite nice. It does cost money, but not that much. There is a myBB import ... but how well does it work, and how complete is it, those are the key questions!

It's actually Ctrl-LMB to open in a new tab.

Is xenforo the software used on UrbanToronto?

Yes, it is. And here is another one with the same software (but rather different look):

For what it's worth, I personally love the "look and feel" of our forum and I would hate to have to get used to a new interface. I'll use this post as a "Thank You, Spokes!" for doing what you do in keeping this place going.

Not if you have a middle button/scroll wheel!

Learned something new - never knew that and just tried it. Wow; thanks!

I like the functionality and look a lot of it. But I was really impressed with the mobile design and function.
Our mobile presence frankly leaves a lot to be desired.

Thanks!
IF a change were to be made, the goal would be to have the same look, feel, features that currently exist.

Reply evidently works for me as well. Thank you, I was scanning right past the button!
