    I have a portal for a few reasons; I have a newsfeed which is displayed there, it was requested by members and I needed a CMS for my site

    Not sure If I will have one yet. There's a nice XF portal add-on but I don't know if I will get it quite yet.

    I used to use a portal on a forum I had just over 3 years ago now :) I used it for the basics like having the newest poll show up on the portal page, or having the latest news show up on the portal page :)

    I joined your forum, its perfectly fine the way it is, I wouldn't use a portal for it..
    I dont remember myself ever using a portal on any of my past forums.

    I personally don't use a portal. I find them annoying and most people just go straight to the forums without even looking what's on one.
