My question, still unanswered, remains, Rick Baker: why have you left out SO MUCH of what makes UBB a great user experience when you made UBBT??
</font><hr /></blockquote><font size="" face="">Here, I'll answer that one for you. This answer is *extremely simple*.
Rick Baker didn't make UBBThreads, he made WWWThreads.
Infopop bought it a few months ago and rebranded it UBBThreads, as well as hiring Rick to continue working on it. Version 5.5 is the first *minor* version released (in major.minor.revision format) as UBBThreads. There hasn't even been a major release version under the UBBThreads name... and consequently it looks and acts nothing like UBB, since it was built from the ground up as a totally different system. I personally was using WWWThreads back around version 3 in 1998. I remember when the passwords becoming encrypted in the database was a Big Thing (tm).
