Because apparently, Three Rings doesn't want to get an actual decent forum system.
This "Drupal" thing is full of bugs and lacks a lot of features. This is one of those bugs.

We do want to have the forum function better. Part of the problem is that from our experimentation, every option sort of sucks in its own special way.
I'm keeping a list of fixes and improvements to request. If you want to give me your Top 5, I'd welcome your input. Don't expect any instant miracles, though! Game fixes take priority.

What's wrong with Vbulletin or PhpBB?

I know game takes priority,
I know game takes priority, but releasing a game and doing no improvements to the forum, or barely any, when it's as bad as this, kind of says "nope, we don't care".
Systems can suck in their own way, sure, but I'm pretty darn sure they couldn't be worse than this! (...please explain that if you can? would it be an issue with game/forum account compatibility? I don't really understand) vBulletin or IPB would work waaaay better, I am pretty sure.
Fixes and improvements top 5?
1: Private message system. It's silly to have to derail/bump a thread to communicate with someone if you don't know their in-game username, and need to talk in private.
2: Better formatting. Having to link images is silly, and being able to change text size would really help formatting suggestion/guide/longer threads. Quoting, too.
3: A better forum style/skin. The current one just clashes with the website's style and colour scheme. It does not fit at all, and looks really unprofessional.
Apart from that, nothing else is that major. Views, post counts, user profiles, avatars/signatures would all be nice to have, but they are not required. Possibly fixing the weird log-in aswell, although that seems to be a server-side issue.

That login thing pisses me off!! I can tell it log in 4 times and it still doesn't do it until like 7 min later in which I can't see new posts and I can't make posts. UGH!!!!

Anyone's top 5 would probably be solved by just switching to a legitimate forum software. Not holding my breath though.

Hmm, I'd hope that part of the reason they chose Drupal is that it allows for easy fixes? Seems very "no-frills" though, size consideration?
