Our infrastructure was designed by Steve Creel, who founded this forum. He built some really innovative stuff back in the day, but we took over the site about a decade ago, and our present IT doesn't like to mess with Steve's code for all sorts of reasons. The truth is that the forum here is low man on the totem pole, which is understandable when you consider our IT oversees our commerce sites as well as our office network, and that's a crucial to us staying in business. We've been discussing migrating to a new platform. One of our people is looking at converting us to Wordpress, but there's hesitancy as our TCEC Wordpress experiment has been so lackluster. Also, the biggest concern is losing links and data. When we last migrated the forum, it severed all of the hyperlinks to MAM - all those little embedded links I do, along some of you other loyal members - which wound up costing the company an astounding amount of income. It was devastating.
But I totally hear ya, wenshu. It's just like I said, low man on the totem pole.
