Unless Teddy and Alex are that freakin' amazing and made this forum by themselves? :batface:
The forum software that we use is phpBB (http://www.phpbb.com/). I wish that we could develop something like this. It really is an amazing piece of work. Although, we have spent quite a bit of time styling the forums to make it fit into the Nolan Fans - Year 2 theme. That shouldn't be discounted.
On the quick reply feature: we can easily implement this here. I'm not really sure if we've discussed this before, but I'm not too fond of the "quick reply." I feel that a quick reply feature discourages longer and more throughly constructed, thought-out forum posts. The chatroom fulfills the need for a more instant back-and-forth discussion.

Well, its not really for a back-and-forth discussion like a chatroom. It's more of a convenience really, having the box on the same page as the discussion.

I must have missed that reason too. I'm with chee on the convenience area, but I don't particularly mind a separate post page. It's just another extra ping on the server.

The extra ad impression that we get is well worth the ping.
That as well. My personal experience is that ad impressions don't really pay a lot, but well, you do try to get the most of everything, right? No harm in that.
