Polling is a must (ever sicne our last vote), and we've been planning to add it. I've started perliminary work on the spell checker. I am also looking at a feature that wasn't suggested: cross posting. it would not be hard to implement. However, I am not letting posts be edited in any way but by the moderator; this ensures that only spelling errors/typos are changed. Its a bad idea for a forum set for debate and argument to let people go back and change their posts, as they would go back and change their entire argument.

persons one: "you said incorecting (link)here(link) such and such"
person two: "no I didn't look again"

this turned out to be a problem and is why it is no tincluded on rpgboard (very similar to the wwwboard robert started out with and modified to the point of it being something else entirely.)
I have been looking at the cute little animated gifs people can put atop their posts, I'm on the lookout for the one where the guy is at his computer, reads something and spits his coffee out. . . also maybe the flame board might be a good place for the 'dancing finger o' sarcasim' gif?
Currently at the forfront of my work is grahics and making the frontpage spiffy and profesional, the current one just doesn't cu it (it was put up in a hurry).
I've gotten a proof of concept animated gif fro the tfront page, it wil be heavily modiied/ built up when ready, but for a sneak peak go here
http://24.4.157.179/earthlightsglobe.gif its HUGE now, about 265k, but you will reconize it as being taken from the famous 'earthilights' picture.

still looking for that perfect picture for the Current Events board. . . (I looked through your online album page frank, there were some close ones, but that perfect picture still eludes me. . .)
