I was wondering if there could be a best forum contest where a people would submit their forum and a mod here would rate it and give the results.
This would end on April 1st
My forum is http://tdbt.netfreehost.com/index.php?mforum=tdbt

Apollo is not your forum. Notice when I said this: "people would submit there forum".

This is dumb, you didn't make those forums, you're just submitting BB's with customised skins that you downloaded off the net.

I think the rules should be that you actually wrote your own forum. Here's mine:

I can't say it was all created by me...Rich said I could use the Apollo buttons.

He didn't mean forum forum. He meant your customized forum, not one that you wrote yourself.

Yeah, and by cusomisation I bet he meant: "The person who wasted the most time searching the net for the best downloadable theme".

Wait, which one? You quoted both.
Yes anyone can skin/change colors, but it's the content of the forums that counts.

No. It's a word I made up that has no meaning, so you can use it however you want. Er...why don't you look around my ferums and see for yourself.

Come to think of it, I might have one.

I think you just did. It'd be kind of hard to though because it dosen't look like it would be pronounced well with the dialect I use for it.

You derned coders are too literal when people say "Your own forum". How about a category for self-written forums, and a category for customized forums. Judge the self-written on how well it was written, judge the customized ones by how well the community was/is develop(ed/ing).

Well, the original post was pretty pointless to begin with but now I'll be quite happy to lock this for it truley becoming useless.
