Subject: Who created the forums and why did he/she make it they way they did?

Sometimes I can't help but wonder who created this forum. From all the forums I been to, this is the simplest and easiest forum to navigate and post on. Your not over-complicated with any post-counts, views, and signatures. It's just seems to be only the user and the forum.

Who was the one who created the forums and why did he/she make it like this? The simplicity of the forum seems to amaze me.

Jack of all trades, master of none.

I did.

ujelly?

I think it was because the people who made it didn't know how to do the other stuff.

1. The Web team.

2. They thought it looked nice.

Hi I'm RT and I like to argue!

Frankly I just like the color scheme and wish everything from websites to word processors would take a lesson from it.

(the light text on a dark background is what I mean)

I believe the original forum software came from Ideal Science and was (highly) customized by Achronos and the web team.

Simplicity is good, but some of the features listed in the OP would be good too. There is definitely a balance to be found somewhere between too simple and too cluttered.

On December 1st, 2012, I met Neil deGrasse Tyson. I shook the man's hand, and even made him laugh. Not much else to do with my life now.

With one wave of Old Papa Rich's magic scepter, this forum was created.

When I grow up I want to be bitter and spiteful.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

It was Al Gore.

He created the internet. Wait, or was it global warming? I forgot . . .

Scientists believe the Bungie forums were created when a shaving of sages beard collided with his computer. The corresponding energy from all of the nerfed weapons he had absorbed burst forth onto the internet, where finally the webmaster shaped it into what it is today.

But who believe science today, it's just a bunch of smoke and mirrors rite?
