I'm not trolling, it's just a fact. This is one of the most badly designed message boards I've ever seen, and it's so hidden on the main site, I didn't find it until months after I'd downloaded Zillions. Zillions is a great piece of software and it deserves to have a connected community with a message board that helps rather than hinders that aim. I'm a novice programmer, but I want to program Chess Variants, and I'm finding it extremely difficult to find any good information to guide me along aside from the language reference. Please someone let's make a better forum for this wonderful program. Even a free forum from the likes of Youku would be better than this. It really is awful. If I get a bit of response here, I'll make a youku forum for zillions. It's not hard at all.

And then I discover that new messages are put at the BOTTOM of the list of topics. Absolutely insane. This is the worst discussion board of all time.

Hi everyone, I've made a forum at the free forum hosting website Yuku, for us to discuss zillions and to help each other to program using it's scripting language. Zillions is amazing, but this forum is bad and old and hidden. Come with me to the year 2013, where forums actually make sense!

Honestly? The company itself has been pretty moribund.

Well there is also the Axiom group which sometimes has discussions related to ZRF programming. My intent is that if this site ever disappears, people would migrate to that.
