Web Wiz in .Net???

(First off.. let me note that i am not speking for Bruce, nor have any idea what his thoughts on this would be)

yeah, but i think in general people just miss the point about something like WWG.. and its the same thing i go through on my 34,000+ member site.... no one is getting paid for all this.... parts of reaf life suffer, and suffer bad, with projects this big taking all one's "free" time.......

i finally had enough of spending couple hundred dollars a month out of my pocket and am converting my whole entire site (forum code and all) to VB.NET so i can take advantage of roles, caching, etc and with this my site is going membership-fee based......  i have hit the wall where dumping tons of time into something so openly "free" has stopped making sense on my part.....

so let Bruce enjoy what he has here, a very stable and feature filled forum that he provides people for free.. instead of giving him grief to rewrite everything from scratch......    trust me, i am finding out its a major pain in the ass, i started my rewrite like back in March and i am like 20% done for one reason and another

i think people expect way too much... way way way too much

I'm currently building a forum in a single page and a module, like WebForum.aspx.

The page decryptes the data in the querystring and parse an output html. It's quite difficult though.

i was just trying to make the point that people in general are awfully demanding for something they pay nothing for nor any clue whatsoever of how much time and effort is involved

someone on this thread is going to write their own forum program?  and they don't even know how to split a string into an array?... yikes... god help him.....
