    The profile layout is exactly the same on this site as it is on romulation... Did romulation copy them or did they copy romulation??? Or maybe the same people make both sites...

    Besides from using the same forum software I don't see the similarity.
    We both use the same forum created by Simple Machines.

    we have nothing to do with that site, and as seph said, the only real similarity is they use the same forum system, which is hardly a crime. In fact; it's about 5th best in the world (security and stability wise), including paid-for systems such as Vbulletin (the best), so a lot more people should be using it. PHPbb is the most popular, and incidentally one of the worst, if not the worst.

    phpBB is very very hackable. :)

    SMF offers far better security, it has better admin features and it's easy to leech it's user system (as this site does)

    Yes it has a very easy to use template system. Not that I'm capable of doing something even remotely nice. :)

    I'm not, I really am bad at graphics, I can program just about anything but graphics I always pass on. At best I can do some minor icons and graphics manipulation. Can't create original work from scratch.

    Aww well we can't be good at everything. You've put this site together and I bow down to you for that. It's kinda good that you don't have big flashy junk all over the site. It's simple and easy to use :D

    We won't make it flashy and annoying, we will make it more nice to look at though, but I can't say too much at this point. :)
