Why no polls?  The move to PHP was a business decision as I stated earlier and the Community Survey results for the past few years have indicated what the majority of members that participated in the Survey wanted to see and that was PHP forums rather than the old outdated .EZ forums.   Sometimes decisions have to be made that are part of a larger, bigger picture affecting the site as a whole and this was one of them.

 

Why features were "removed"...With changes such as this you can't expect that everything will fit into the new format.  The forums being functional (which they are or we wouldn't be posting, LOL) to get them moved over so the rest of the Community side could follow was the first priority. This doesn't mean that other features won't be added over time (as I stated earlier).
