IC going to On3

[Calheel]

I can't stand the new inside Carolina message boards but I do think their writers are much better than 247 - I only have 247 premium because they had a big sale on it

The IC message boards are vastly superior to 247. It is the exact same software as this site (although Rock has added a few bells and whistles). And IC also has a good app now for mobile.

You are just used to 247 boards. Once you get used to on3, it’s hard to go back to 247.

I listened to an IC podcast last night and they mentioned subscriptions are currently 75% off. I haven’t looked to see if it’s 75% off a 12 month subscription or if it’s shorter term

I don’t have a subscription to either site but from a quick glance, I feel like 247 pushed a bunch of resources towards the Carolina site when IC left and now they’ve pulled back. Thus, quality of 247 site is lower.

If they would let me play with the settings I could make the IC forums work as well as here and add in a lot of bells and whistles as well as proper aesthetic changes.

At this point I am sure I know the software better than any of their tech people.

I understand giving each team individual control over their forums could be problematic but I am confident that you can keep control by separating the logins, could easily revert and fix changes, etc.

I’m not joking when I suggest that perhaps they’ve hired like one IT person who they pay a measly sum to keep things running and that’s it.

Probably. I don't think they have even setup custom themes for each site. They just have one set of themes, and then change the forum colors to override the themes. I don't know for sure, just a hunch based on the crickets I got back where I said any thing we want that you don't want on other sites, just apply it to the IC theme...
