    I wouldnt use it as that, its not all that great you know.. its more of a site than a forum.. its kinda hybrid.

    They might be going somewhere, the people developing it are pretty well known guys.

    Seems a bit too simple for me personally, although I could make a nice looking theme for it

    I'm not impressed by their software, honestly. It's very basic but it does have a few nice features. From what I saw if you're an admin you can edit a lot of stuff from the homepage! That's pretty nice.

    Yea I agree, they are just lacking certain things.. the design is very plain thats the main thing which makes it look ugly.

    Very true but I think launch forums has to remember that the launch of a forum is very important. :P Even if it's forum software I think they should have put it together. Right now it seems like a poor cross between IPB (Icons, buttons, etc) and vBulletin. Don't get me wrong, I wish them the best of success. They have some unique features but it has to be appealing to the eye. It's completely bland, plain, and boring right now. :P XenForo launched and it had a unique GOOD look.

    Yea I agree, there is nothing really unique about them.. it looks like plain html and java to me :P Hopefully they will improve.

    I want a license, im going to get one when they release it but im not going to pay top dollar so it really depends on what it costs.
