The big why (GR)
Posts: 1708 | Subs: 2
I've been involved with GR for a long time even before the site was created and it was known as CnCReplays.com
I finally decided to quit when I had enough of the bullshit from the ownership. One day saying they'll handle sponsors then the next day saying I had to do it, still stuck in 2005 with strat guides and lists, would never take on board suggestions and many other issues I don't wish to post in public.
The site has some good potential but the management has no vision, no imagination, no rapport with the community and no motivation to do anything with their massive user base.

That's not to say that GR has not got a great group of admins and moderation on it but what ipkaifung says is very true about the vision, imagination or expansion. Maybe those things are there, but they don't seem to have been worked on.

We do use Yii framework, and some extensions or modules going with it so I can't really stay it's totally from scratch. But even for half of them, I already see limitations or even had to change some part of their code. :/ It is indeed no forum framework though, but I just hope the effort will be worth it.
At the end of the day, getting used to Yii, and CSS styling (which I hate), were the two most time consuming aspects, not so much creating the basic forum structure, which I think took me around the same time to build as it would have been to get used to yet another framework (for forums) and adapt it. Also the forums how we have build them will be the most easily adaptable to any new content we create requiring posts, such as replays or vods, or news and the pm system which are already up.
CSS styling is the one bit of my job I always enjoy Your effort has been worth it though, it's a nice looking site.
I suppose a little extra time in the beginning will be worth it in the long run if it makes developing new features easier. Hopefully you can build on the site and roll out the features GR was never able to give the CoH section.

Of course I only ever get one side of the story and usually only half of that so am frequently wrong.

tbh I always thought it was your own decision to leave 12azor. That you'd thrown a tantrum and fallen out with GR and / or the CoH section and had asked to be banned and have all your posts removed.

I got banned, a few times and finally permenantly from the site. I'm not going to discuss the details etc. of it here though - this site is for the progression of the community =).

You've corrected my misconception. I appreciate the off topic detour.

Hopefully they don't ban 12's here as fast.

hopefully the anti cheat measures in CoH2 are superiour to CoH1 and such a section will not be necessary!!
That would indeed be fabulous.
