LMAO I noticed that too
I've become one with the Cake!
You should see my reply where you stated that in another thread Sin. They were looking at vBulletin before Cryptic ever bought the CO IP, and I think Cryptic still owned part of CoH when they started looking at it along with a few other forum software packages.
They didn't copy CO forums so much as the CO forums got launched on vBulletin before they got ours switched over to vBulletin.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Yeah, but that doesn't change the fact that CO's boards looked like this before ours did. The facts may say one thing, but the majority of the potential playerbase of both games doesn't know nor care.

True, I can only state the facts I know to those willing to listen.

Oh, and someone mentioned in another thread about Exteel having used the vBulletin forums, and I know that Aion is using them (due to another poster mentioning it) so it may be a NCSoft-wide change.
Dunno.
Don't care.
Comparisons to CO don't bother me after looking at their graphics.

Dont care about most of it.
Still dislike this forum setup.

Introductions, Obey,
I'll be writing one or two guide posts in the next few days, highlighting how to do many of the things we used to be able to do on the other boards, and some of the new features of the vBulletin boards that we didn't have before.
I'm sure that the Community Team still has more tweaks to apply, possibly including some more skins, styles, templates, vB mods, and more.
As to when I'll get the guides posted? Dunno, but I'd ask that you hold off on letting the first impression color your opinion of the new forums too much, especially when you haven't had time to explore the capabilities of the system.

any forum where I can do this
is not lame XD
Volt Sentinel Reference
Thunder is good, thunder is impressive, but lightning does the work.
Gee, I could post a link to a picture in the old forums.
Oh wait, it's because I turned off the img tage until we get more options for disabling IMG tags in sigs only.
But yeah, the new forums have their advantages and disadvantages. Sometimes they are even the same thing.

The fun thing about being able to disable those img tags is that I can see the actual like to the pics, so I can click them to open them in a separate window if I want.
Such as I did with the cover to Volt Sentinel's May '09 issue.

Let's see. When I first remember any discussion of looking at new forum software, I think CuppaJo was still here, although it may have been Awry or Cricket. I dunno, that's been a long time ago. I know Ex Libris and Lighthouse mentioned it several times on the forums and I think that was brought up before the first Meet & Greet they worked in Cali. That M&G was around the time that they announced that NCSoft had bought the rest of the City of IP from Cryptic. That was back when Cryptic was still looking at doing the Marvel MMO.
But maybe my memory is off. I am old and forgetful.
Oh, but I'm not so forgetful that I can't recall how to ignore people on the forums. I learned that trick on another vBulletin forum a while back. And you get the pleasure of being the first I've ignored on the new forums.
Adios.

Good to see the new forums are still attached to the internet.
I'm not sure what we would do if the uninformed could not insult their seniors.
I don't really care for the look or the layout. The extra clicks to go down the layers to the content I want aren't welcome.
But the software is robust and has lots of features that people want. I'm here for the company, not the ease of use. 
TJ ever so informative as always, thank you. Remember me to buy you a drink at Hero Con this year.
As far as the complaining goes about the forum I found a way to solve those issue......
STOP VISITING THE FORUMS
you probably the same morons that complain about a show after they watch the whole thing, its a free county and free choice, if you don't like it then don't particapate.
PROBLEM SOLVED.
�One of the best lessons children learn through video games is standing still will get them killed quicker than anything else�
Not liking the new forums is fine, everyone is entitled to their opinions.
So far I am not in thrilled with them, but that is because they are new and different from what I am accustomed to and what is comfortable.
In a few weeks I'm sure I'll love the new options and find work arounds for features that may not be available.
Cool to see you have an arc, Mari! I'll be sure to check it out.
One of the things I loved on the old forums was the Favorite Forums toggle that let me customize which forums I saw (and didn't see) when I came to the boards.
I miss that, but I've found a workaround that some of you may like and wrote a quick Guide that you may want to look at.
Here is a link to a post on the vBulletin Community Forums dealing with code usage.
The FAQ link at the top of this site is very useful, and will help some of you acclimatize yourself to the new forums.

That should jump you directly the the English portion of the forum, which has a similar layout to the old forums.
Nice. I'll give that a try.

It's been a somewhat trying day here in many ways, and this was the EXACT post I needed to see right now to make me sit back, take a deep breath, and let things run off my back like water on a duck.
