Whatsbev.com; Changes - Why are we moving?

The whatsbev.com address is currently delinked from this board.

In the meantime, the link below will work.

http://s14.zetaboards.com/WhatsBev/index/

The domain has now been linked to our new board

whatsbev.boards.net

Get yourself signed up and start chatting away. We'll be drawing down this board over the coming days. Eventually all threads will be locked. It'll stay here as an archive of the good old days when cheshire played at the Northgate and Leicester didn't play at the LCS!

Why are we moving?

Zetaboards does not offer mobile functionality. As a large portion of internet traffic is from mobile phones and tablets, we are making it difficult for current users and making it unattractive for potential users.

Proboards offers us the moble functionality we require, as well as the ability to post from an app (tapatalk)

It allows us to embed media, link to social media sites with ease and utilise the way we work with social media far more easily than zeta (in many cases zetaboards can't do this, rather than simply being worse at it)

Behind the scenes there are significantly more features for the admins and mods to run the site - from the simple things like stats and site layout, to the more complicated (by my standards!) issues of plugins, marketing etc).

In short: zetaboards hasn't moved with the times and is, to an extent, holding us back. We hope that the move to proboards will begin to address this. We do realise, of course, that there is further work to be done in terms of offering more content.

We hope to see you all transfer over. Hopefully there won't be too many teething troubles although we do appreciate there will be a bit of a transition period.

Gonk

Gonk you've done a hell of a lot for these boards since you've jumped on board, and along with Roadgiant/Roadjet/Roadnix (his T-shirt was the reason I started going on whatsbev - me and my mate were curious as to what it was haha!) and the crew I'd like to give you all a bit of thanks.

So keep up the good work lads!

Personally I'd prefer you kept the minority sub sections. I know traffic on their is minimal but by removing the headings you pretty much kill any future discussion in those areas. Years ago there used top be a lot more traffic in those areas. who says it wouldn't change again? Bigz might post one day on the EBL who knows

Huge thanks to you all, these boards certainly give a great insight into what other teams think of not just themselves but of my beloved Eagles too (Especially you, Retsek!)

Oh . . . . . . . . he's been a few things . . . . . some of which I could possibly comment on! :blush

But I don't think he used "RoadJet" . . . .

He hasn't. Or if he has then he's covered his tracks well!

The kind words from folk are appreciated. They're sentiments that I echo. Many others have put in the work to allow me to enjoy coming here, and still do put in that work.

In terms of the new board, I can't take full credit. I had assistance from a couple of folk. One in particular whom I couldn't have done it without. They shall remain nameless unless they're desperate to come forward. I am grateful and appreciative of their help.

The best news is chicken bronchitis has predicted the new board will be a total failure!
