Over the past few years, I have been active in my communities and I have taken a particular liking to the forums created by ZenForo. ZenForo is an extremely convenient and customizable tool for creating forums. A simple description of the abilities of XenForo can be seen: https://xenforo.com/

An example forums: https://xenforo.com/community/

The above is an example forums created using the software. It shows most of the functions of the forums. A shoutbox(chatbox) and many others such as coin toss can be added via customization. The color scheme could also be changed to your likings. The sections are well organized in chronological order which enables easy browsing through topics. Sub-sections are also available with customization.

A favorite feature of mine is the alerts system. You can "watch" sections of the forums or a thread it it will alert you for ever thread/post updated.

I think that there will be many possibilities that could happen with XenForo and Rito plz. Upvote if you support

But, to use Xenforo would be, like, to throw out all the work the Boards team has done here over the past year!

Plus, unlike this system, the Boards team would have the same problem they had with GD - it would be hard to build in new features.
