AOL Chat - Posted By conradwbauman (conradwbauman) on 19th Jul 10 at 2:52am
I just remembered that ProBoards had an AOL chatroom.... {Tongue Out}

If you have a AOL username, go to New Group Chat and type in:

vForums

And type anything in the invite section unless you're actually inviting someone. That is the chatroom for vForums since ProBoards has a posse of their own. {Smile}

Well, you can just create an AIM username just to chat in there if you'd like. People don't actually think this forum service will make it. They're just haters and arrogant people. {Tongue Out}

I'm pretty sure that being around for over 2 years puts us past the "make it or not make it" stage. As far as I can tell, we've already made it. vForums has long been a self-sustaining company, and forum registrations are steady. A new forum server was purchased not long ago, proving even more that vForums is steadily growing. In just over 2 years we've managed to get over 4000 forums hosted with us, which is amazing when you look at how big the remotely hosted forum market already is, and how difficult it is to get into the market as a competitor.

vForums actually listens to what customers want, unlike other providers who'll say "No, don't request that, we're not doing it and we won't tell you why." regardless of how many people ask for it. vForums understands that the forum system is there for the users first and foremost, not for the staff. From my own observations I've found that everyone who says they don't like vForums, or think it's not good have either never tried it (and are basing their opinion on hearsay -- seems to be a popular thing to do in society), or they haven't tried it since way back in late 2007 when it was first released.

The only issue I've seen is that people already have well-established forums with other providers, and as such can't just drop everything they've built and switch, which is completely understandable. Of course, for people using self-hosted message boards, like phpBB and InvisionFree, their forums can be converted to a vForum, so they have no problem switching over. {Smile}

If you have an AIM account or don't have one (I highly demand that you create one just for the chatroom part) and post it here so we can invite you/add you to the buddy list so when everyone is online or what not, we can get the chatroom started.

tiltheend09 is mine. so add me. {Smile}
