HeK had posted this a while back in the admin section, but I think this needs to be put out for everyone to review / comment so we can upgrade this place

I was thinking of upgrading the forums to SMF 2 and ditching the front page.
I would like to convert the forums to non-SMF but I believe that may reset the passwords for all the users.
Ideas? Comments? Questions?
Suggestions? Desired features?

Quote:* Ditching the front page
I agree, it was a failed experiment...I think just a splash page w/logo would be best as a click through to the forums
* non-SMF
Don't see a problem, Id be more concerned with thread preservation than passwords, those can just be reset
* Other ideas/comments/suggestions
Maybe an easier way to create user titles? We ran out of user group space so I couldn't add more funny things as they came up, Id love to be able to go to a user's profile as an admin and just set a title(s)
Anyway to integrate group-me/IRC? Maybe a ticker on top with the latest post?
I think the gallery should be a bit more visible as well from the forums, also probably linked up top
