Now that we have been on NodeBB for a while...

Much better. Faster with no down-time.
The only thing I don't like is the awkward way quotes get parsed. Sometimes line breaks come through, sometimes they don't. If they don't I've given up on adding ">" signs to make it readable. If you have a hard time reading without the line breaks, just go to the url.
I really don't care about emojis, smileys whatever that much.
I like the fact that you can upload a pic directly without going through another service (like postimage), though I wish there were a way to post multiple images at once.
A while ago,
Der FührerKlaus posted about using "markup" to insert tables, bullet points, etc. I find that very confusing, in my dotage, and I wish there were a handy reference guide for how to do it on this platform."Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08
The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

I did not know you could do this!!!! LOL I have been upload to post image and then down load to here.
How do you do this?
So far, I am happy with the forum board. I actually see a lot of emoji and they seem to work good. And like @Loki said, not as much "other stuff" from the owners.
Always makes me wonder how they can make money or what is their "business model."

I do periodically receive a post that is blank. The first one was from Jon, but I've gotten blank ones from Ax and George also. Others respond to a link or a pic or something the OP provided that I can't see.
Don't know if this happens to anyone else.

I only have a couple of issues with it, both minor.
- If my chrome browser ever drops this page as it's default opening page I'll never find the place again.. and
- I wish it allowed more than one empty line between paragraphs. You can hit return a dozen times, but when it posts all but one are gone.

Ax still has a link up...just type coffee-room.com in your browser and see what you get.

It's fixed...

Oh, one thing I don't like:
Nested quotes only go 2 generations deep. Clicking on a deeper quote takes you to the original post. I suppose it's ok, but I hate jumping around in a thread.
