I agree the Forums could use some work, and I think crispy is working on this.  I find it hard to complain about DNN when it cost me..uh...nothing and chris is doing this for free! What I would like to see is more involvement from the community at large in helping the core members diagnose bugs AND fix them.  I've found a couple of bugs and issues (like the multi-threaded indexing not being able to keep the culture info and the forum.config object getting dumped and causing a object not found on app restarts).   But more importantly, I've come up with the fixes (or hacks) and told the DNN programmers.  

My biggest frustration with these forums are unanswered posts (either from the core team or the community).  I've put two threads out there, one in localization and one about the scheduler, and received nada, nothing, not one reply. 

I think DNN would benefit from more folks who are very versed in .Net who use the product, install the source, and help find bugs and can help answer forum posts to let the core members pound out code/changes to the baseline.  My philosophy with open source; "you only get out of it, what you put into it".  If you want support/etc.., maybe a purchased product is best??  Just asking...

Thanx for listening

I just clicked on the search button, typed some stuff in, clicked on a forum and clicked the search button and stuff came back. So it works.

I think part of the problem is that after Google we expect a lot from search. More than anyone but Google or MSN or Yahoo can provide. It is best to use Google.
