The old software was no longer supported, when things went wrong or needed to be updated, it couldn't be done.
Without this drastic change, at some point in the near future the old forum would have stopped being viable, & most of the data that's now been moved here, would have been lost for ever.

This was mentioned in the old forum week ago that this would happen and you were urged to take a screenshot of your old profile with feedback whilst the old forum is still active

If you have any suggestions on what could be changed or improved please consider a post here: https://airsoft-forums.uk/threads/new-forums-issues-bugs-feedback.54259/
It's a first iteration that will be worked on over time so if you know of anything specific that's missing that can probably be added back at some point soon.

Funny how it's the ones who only use the site for sales and contribute ⅘ of fuck all to the forum who are whining
Yes, strange that.

I’ve been biting my tongue in this one, but seeing as you’ve opened the worm can and I’ve had a shit week…
100% agree. I don’t know what the admin team here do for a living, but I know for certain its not running this fucking forum we all use free of charge.
Nonetheless - the time has been taken to keep it alive and running, allowing people to use it as they like, even if that is just to flog their toy guns and never participate in the community.
Platform migrations like the one we’ve just seen aren’t a click of a button. It’s a ton of work which I presume the team have had to do in their free time.
I’ve said it in another post but I get paid to do work similar to this as my full time job. The work the team have done would be considered a job well done in my book even with paying customers.
There was notice of the upcoming change. Delays were communicated and updates given. Go-live was successful with team on hand to answer support questions. Feedback is listened to and where possible being actioned.
If we were hiring I’d have these guys on my team.
Don’t like the free service you’re getting? Set up your own platform, build and support it from the ground up in your spare time and listen to everyone tell you how shit it is and come back and let us know how you get on.
^views and opinions above are mine and mine only and are not representative of the AFUK staff.
Absolutely spot on.
