controversy

What do you think of the BigTech Crackdown (Don't get political) But Amazon removing their web hosting from Parler is really bad (with 2 days notice) And I have heard of a domain name company removing the domain name of a gun club This is scary stuff that could affect any of us

Pay more get less. Thats IPS new business model since version 4.5. Some of you probably already know but i have not been using IPS for quite some time. Well i decided to start a new website in 2021 and found that IPS is the best software for the job. Xenforo is also very nice but for this...

This is something that I have noticed for a long time btw. I was wondering as to why is that? It looks like Taz is playing favorites here by placing xf over all the other forums. Should someone not prise xf here, they get muted and even banned in some cases. Whereas if people go over board by...

The direction in which Invision has decided to take with their software has left me with no other option but to seek other venues unfortunately. I will most likely be switching over to Xenforo because of the availability of support and access to 3rd party developers. With the recent changes at...

I just came across this. It seems like Reddit are trying to solicit free translation work from their users as a part of their efforts to internationalise and populate their software phrase system. As a result, it seems like many of the volunteers are teenagers looking to contribute. Some as...

Is Vbulletin really dead ?? Cannot find right support, right resources for custom upgrades like used to be on 2.x to 3.x phase.. Nothing left moving 100s+ forums to another software script... Ty.

I'm considering starting a forum in a niche that could potentially be controversial. The main topic would be one thing which in itself should be uncontroversial, but it skates along the edge of topics that will undoubtedly attract trolls and shouty type people. Should I bother? What is your...

A week ago, I posted about Amazon removing third party affiliate companies like Viglink -- https://www.theadminzone.com/threads/amazon-removes-third-party-vendors-from-its-affiliate-program.152946/ Now they have changed their rates too-- Old is on the left, new on the right.

https://www.adexchanger.com/ecommerce-2/amazon-removes-third-party-vendors-from-its-affiliate-program/ Starting at the beginning of this month, affiliate networks such as Skimlinks, Sovrn (which acquired VigLink) and CJ Affiliate (formerly Commission Junction) can no longer send traffic to...

In one of the post on MyBB blog, Tom Moore once said: So Im asking: Where are these regular contributors and their contributions? Team take note: regular means: on regular basis. How this (=what happens nowadays) can be called regular? Its been 2013. We currently have 2020. SEVEN YEARS ON and...

I can't help but notice how many times I've browsed this forum only to read how terrible vB software is. Let's say (hypothetically) that is it, why is it always a repeating campaign theme on this website? @TheChiro mentioned: If the majority have moved on, why do people still complain? It's...

Last week I got an email from KnownHost about some changes to be made: Have any of you, whether from KnownHost or some other hosting provider, received a notification like this? I have a dedicated server with 4 accounts, each with their own cPanel. Not sure if I should be shopping, or stick...

I know a few here use FB as part of their overall forum structure (as well as some having active FB groups). An author friend of mine was at the recent Developer Conference, where Mark Zuckerberg discussed and shared the upcoming intentions they have. She was good enough to post a video in an...

Looks like some people are trying to be overnight millionaires selling Xenforo 2 mods! And I know that something is only worth what people are willing to pay for it. But some of these mods have insane pricetags attached to them. Its no wonder why people are not in a hurry to upgrade to Xenforo 2!

https://petapixel.com/2017/07/01/photobucket-just-broke-billions-photos-embedded-web/ Since 2003, the popular photo hosting service Photobucket has been letting users upload and host images for free on their servers. They have over 10 billion images stored by 100 million registered users. But...
