Subject: A question on the CMS of BNET

Why would you update something that needs to be replaced?

I wouldn't call it "good." It is old and needs to be replaced, much like the forums.

But I wrote it (it is is custom). It runs (like everything else on bungie.net) on .NET, using ASP.NET WebForms, using C#. And we use MS SQL Server for database stuff.
An update would be nice.

Meh, I find .net really clunky to work with. Don't even get me started with its MVC implementation *shudders*. Some aspects of it were nice, but I'm more comfortable with PHP - plus it's a LOT easier (for ma anyways) to duplicate my local setup onto another machine - whether it's windows, mac or *nix :)
Everyone has their preference though ;)

Wibbly-wobbly designy-whiney stuff.

I don't mean to be "that guy", but I'm 100% certain it used some forum system a while back. I think "Fusion" might have been part of it's name. Did you guys get rid of that and simply copy the style over to this custom system or what?

I agree about the benefit of it being portable, but it's the some of the bigger things in ASP not being in PHP is why I prefer it (eg. Master Pages, simple event handling - especially client-side, .NET integration, Visual Studio integration, database integration, etc...).

There's just something I find so unattractive about an "unmanaged" environment like PHP, Perl, Python, etc... where you can just throw a script up and have it run - there isn't any kind of "tying together" of it as an application/site (I guess I'm referring more to how Visual Studio handles all of this though).

I always see it as a, "You get what you pay for." type of situation.

True, especially in regard to support, but for the most part a lot of it is free (Web Platform Installer has a whole lot of readily available MS stuff, for example).

I suppose I'm just a bit old fashioned. I like to be able to dive right into the code and see exactly what I'm working with. I had a hard time debugging .net, I suppose it will get easier the more you use it, I just couldn't get my head around it. Generally I stay away from IDE's as well - Notepad++'s syntax highlighting is about as far as I go :P
Guess it's just opinion/preference :)

"You dead yet? No? You will be!"

"How you like them pears? Guess what I mean by pears."

"I'm gonna rip off his partridge and kick him in the pear tree!"

Am I a nerd for knowing what all this is?
