cool message board

[tvtech]

Hi Chris,

I have recently been evaluating message board/forums that are available to add to a website, and I very much like the look your satellite forum discussion website.

Who is the software by or who is the sponsor ?
(any other details would be great).

I would like to add a link from my website (a UK website dedicated to the TV service industry) to your excellent moderated forums is that possible also ?

regards
Mike

>Who is the software by or

I've found that it is called DCForm and you can find information at http://www.dcscripts.com. You do have to pay for it, but it's not that expensive by the look of it. For interest, the [.tv] channel also uses this forum system (though it looks slightly older).

You may want to look also at a forum system called Discus (http://www.discusware.com) which is quite good and also free!

Sorry for being off-topic!

I'd like to thank you for your interest in our site.

yes that's right the forum does use dcscripts DCforum 2000 , the main reason I chose this script to power the discussion forum at satellites.co.uk was for flexibility. Dcforum is also very powerful and fast in delivering pages and I am told that there is no lose in speed when the forum grows.

You can find more details on the script @ http://www.dcscripts.com

No sponsors the site all the cost for the set-up and advertising of the site have all come out of my own pocket , I never expect to make any money from the site , I just hope that people will use the site on a regular basis to help the site become the #1 site for satellite information.

Yes I'd love you to provide a link to our site......please link to http://www.satellites.co.uk and anyone else can also use this link to provide a link to this site

Thanks Chris for your helpful reply posting.

I have been looking around at message forums and yours takes some beating !!
I really like the nice clean look of your board.

I did find www.dcscripts during my searches, although I find that I could now setup and moderate my own forum on your board.

Thanks again
best regards

Thanks for your help Aled,

I's always nice to "meet" friendly people on this message board.

I did find www.dcscripts.com during my searching around and it looks and feels like the best.
