NFO message board: put your ideas here...

I know some of you have experience in this:

http://newfunkorder.com/p.../index.php


if anyone wants to take charge of this job and customize it for the NFO, I'll give you access.

We're working on a cold fusion one that we like a lot, but it might be a while for it's done. This one will allow for uploading files to the board.

Otan has already got the ball moving. So what you as the users like to see on here?

I've got experience using the interface thoroughly, but no experience setting it up on the server. You want me to build out the topics, sections, permissions, groups, etc?

I can do that. orgnote me the access info, I'll get on up on it.

Is this going to include a private forum for us to discuss our goings on? I've seen that on some boards, like an administrators only forum. Or do we still want to keep our negotiations public? Is it cool to let people have this behind the scenes look at our dysFUNKtional family?

lol

How about we start out with keeping those issues via e-mail?

Well, it would be hard to get everyone's input that way. But that usually turns into some kind of disaster.

That ones php built with mysql, not really my area. Stick with Yabb cos both me & Otan specialise in PERL

As far as who installs it, I really dont mind. Whichever is most convenient.

Lewis, you can create your own account and I'll change the admin rights to the user name.

I didn't know if you wanted Lewis, or cloud9mission so I won't create it for you.

After researching the account info for the new server we're on, it came with something already, I just had to turn it on.

Otan is customizing it right now though.

Any input from you would be great!
