Vbulletin is the best forum application, and there's loads behind the scenes, especially for the admin
You'd love it Ryan
you feel like dr evil in his massive leather chair :lol
But the reality of running a forum is far more stressful, you cannot please all the people all the time, you cannot be arrogant, you have to be laid back, especially with changes and moderation and this is where he problems can occur
Tbf tho this forum kind of runs its self, its a knowledge base so its pretty much just housekeeping
The problems come on larger forums where u have groups of cliques and people with very different opinions and where there's is a large social element. Also when admins try to implement changes, as most people simply hate change
A forum I was involved with changed owners about 4 times in 6 years, there was a breakaway forum, at one point every one then came back only to return to the breakaway :lol but what finished it was when my headstrong partner decided to implement the vb4 upgrade ... Everyone left, as it was a forum skin that was unfamiliar
This forum is great IMO, it helps that its just a resource for like minded Nissan owners
