its great you guys put all the effort in. also the shop and stories section is a really good idea!
I think a greater separation of posts using colouring or borders in threads would make them more easily read.

I much prefer a forum to Facebook, so a thumbs up from me :)

I'm a fan of Artodia black, so if that was an option here I'd be extremely happy with the forum ;) https://www.artodia.com/phpbb-styles/black/

Having the whole forum on HTTPS would really hit the performance so not sure about that at the moment, really only the login pages that need it I reckon.

Will have a look at the latest poster idea, there may be a plugin for it 8-)

Also just changed the button colours to make them stand out a bit more (matches the website now) and adjusted the styling of the quotes so they have a bit of margin around them.

When i browse the forum on my phone, the top "new topic" button doesn't seem to work but the button one does.
