  1. I don't think this was meant to be a thread to promote antivirus companies...
  2. Welcome! Have fun on WebFlake.
  3. Most people prefer free antivirus solutions, such as the free versions of AVG and Avira. Others prefer to use cracked versions of the paid antiviruses, such as Kaspersky and Norton. I was wondering: have you ever paid for an antivirus? Have you ever purchased the licensed version of an antivirus for your computer?
  4. Enjoy: It only took me 5 minutes to make. Imagine investing a couple of hours in that cool font site.
  5. Personally, I think that 80% of the things on the cool text website linked above look much better than your black and white "logo"...

    Hosting

    Not really. They couldn't really seize a server hosted in some African country that has no laws about piracy. The speed would probably not be very good for visitors from other continents, but USA couldn't really do anything in terms of DMCA.
  7. When there are more bugs than good code, you know you're running an IPB 4 forum...

      the only good part is responsiveness the rest kinda sucks!

      They should have just improved IPB 3 responsiveness instead of re-writing the script from scratch.

  8. The default theme looks a lot better than IPB 4's default theme, in my opinion. But I agree about the support part. They really need a better support team.
  9. I'm not exactly sure what you're talking about. Burning Board has pretty much the same apps that IPB has: gallery, calendar, blogs, and filebase. It also has a chat room app that is perhaps a little better than IP.Chat:
  10. Do you think Woltlab's Burning Board can be seen as a serious competitor for IPB? Burning Board's latest version seems to have a pretty awesome-looking photo gallery and a cool blogs system. It also has a chat plugin that rivals IP.Chat. It lacks some features that IPB has, such as status updates in the sidebar and various hooks, but the main apps of Burning Board seem to be really sleek, modern-looking.
  11. Woltlab's Burning Board should have its own sections in the Wbflake Downloads...

      Then you should definitely suggest it on our tracker sub-link for suggestions... here: http://webflake.sx/suggestions-tracker/

  12. Does this apply to hooks and third party apps too? Would they revoke a license if you use hooks taken from Webflake?
  13. French fries with steak or fried chicken
  14. Where exactly did you see that it can be downloaded for free? The pricing on their website are for forums hosted by them on their servers. Similar to how IPS has the 'community in the cloud' offer.
  15. Which is your favorite premium forum script? I'm going to list the most popular ones in the poll. If it is another script that I have omitted, mention it in a reply in this thread.
  16. It looks pretty cool. How does one change the theme's colors?
  17. ​> Becali mentioned > swell with Romanian pride and mămăligă with cheese
  18. I prefer the flare version. It looks more attractive to me.
  19. Wow. Ignorance at its finest. SOPA and legislation like it are aimed at foreign websites. Evidently you haven't read the material provided above, or any material regarding such legislation (i.e. TPP). SOPA regulates the dealings between American service providers and foreign sites; most notably search engines, advertising networks, and payment processors (such as PayPal, Visa, and MasterCard). Search engines will be forced to remove listings of offending foreign sites; advertising networks will have to stop selling ads to offending sites; payment processors will have to stop processing payments from Americans for offending sites. You don't think any of this would impact European countries? In previous versions of SOPA (being discussed once more in the Trans-Pacific Partnership), DNS disruptions would become mandatory as well. Clearly, you're unaware of what ICE takedowns are. Furthermore, SOPA does not even require a complaint from a rights-holder before the US-based service providers cut off their payments, appearance in search results, or advertisements. Imagine one morning you wake up, to find your community blacklisted across the internet. You might be just outside the reach of United States judicial system but you're still under the purview of Interpol, who has been working closely with major authorities in taking down some of the internet's largest databases, such as TPB and EZTV. Please don't respond to this thread with inaccurate bullshit. The Trans-Pacific Partnership (SOPA 2.0) is a real threat, especially to WebFlake. ​I'm not responding with inaccurate bullshit. I'm responding with an opinion. If you don't know what that is, perhaps you shouldn't own a forum. Do you know what a forum is? It's a place where people express their opinions. Great going breaking your own rules by insulting members! If you think that the USA has the power to dictate Europe, you're delusional. They can go ahead and control their own companies, but they won't dare step up to powers such as Russia and China. If Google cooperates, we'll just use Yandex and Baidu. Who needs PayPal when we have Skrill? There are plenty of European alternatives to Amazon and eBay. No YouTube? We have Dailymotion. No Visa and Mastercard? We'll use UnionPay, thank you very much. Sorry, Americans, you cannot dictate us. Why do you think most of the torrent and file hosting sites are hosted in Central and Eastern-European countries and have been running without issues for years? If you host WebFlake with an American hosting company, then yeah, I agree, you might be threatened by the USA laws. If you want to feel safe, just move it to a Russian company.
  20. ​Now I really want to see that forum...
  21. European countries won't be affected, just like they're not affected by your DMCA law...
