Great, if you're reading these forums, looking for unofficial ideas and suggestions.

Not great, if you're a paying user, who downloads the file, reads the official docs posted with the files, and in the zips.

The UBB Docs, never used to need you to read any forums, to get the job done, is my point.
If the details are valid, why not add them to the "official" docs.
How long does it take, on a validated point, to add it to the html...

IMHO.

Maybe my simpler point of reference should be, that for me, and I assume many others, the UBB is just a tool, and a means to an end.
It shouldn't be expected that we dig and dig, and become active members here, just to get it working. \:\)

Well, it's good to keep in mind that, Rick is on his own with threads... Most of the forums are ran by users... All of the moderators here aren't groupee staff, we're simply users.

If you have rick updating the webpage every time theres an update needed to an article, he'd be spending a good portion of his coding time each day updating articles....

It's probably also good to note that the man has a family, so I doubt he spends all day every day coding/working on the forums... Not to mention he probably has other obligations as well ;)...

I've submitted several requests for a FAQ forum, or a Wiki addon to the UBB so people can update information, and all that good stuff.

I think actually we'll probably switch over to the forums and maybe some sort of wiki for the docs or at least a good portion of them. The forums are actually easier to maintain than actual docs and it's easy to add contributions to others.

Yes, we definitely need to spend more time on the docs. I've just been focusing on making up for lost time for now in trying to get a few major feature releases out for customers who stuck by us through the long wait for version 7.
