good question. but i'm not a web developerbut it would be nice not to have to keep reloading the page. perhaps if it could update automatically with ajax or whatever techno-script people use nowadays. perhaps we should all go on a feature request spree.

the basic concept of the kind of imageboard we use seems a little bit old-fashioned don't you think? although it's clearly more up to date than the 4chan etc. kind of imageboard scripts.

it is functional and simpleToo many features would just mess it up I think.
Things that could keep it simple and just about the content would be welcome so long as they were non-invasive and streamlined.

To be fair this is one of the best messageboards I've seen, purely because of that.The very fact that you don't have people posting a couple of words, followed by a signature that takes up half the screen on its own because it's full of the post that was replied to repeated again, random information (such as it is), a series of quotes, an endless sucession of animated gifs and smileys, anime porn, etc etc. I don't think the people on here would go for all that sort of thing in their posts anyway, but not having the ability in the first place keeps things tidy and you get more emphasis on the content that way.
Yes, board looks dated, but it does the job.

i'm not complaining about the way it looksjust the way it works. a constantly auto-refreshing /board could help it to feel more "happening" (for want of a less unfashionable word) rather than the "static" feel it seems to have.
i think the way it looks is great.
