I like the slightly-off grammar, it gives the software character.
Or I'm just used to it because I used WBB prior to this and you'd find random chunks of German in the templates and the admin panel.

Oh, you don't care about how simple the forum is? I apologize, then, for believing the explanation the author wrote about writing a forum that wasn't overloaded with silly things.
"Its primary goal is to be a faster, smaller and less graphic alternative to otherwise excellent discussion boards such as phpBB, Invision Power Board and vBulletin."
I think it does that quite well. punBB was never styled after the japanese 2ch style forums and most western users prefer the forum style, hence the popularity of phpBB, Vbulletin, WBB, and so on over the older registrationless threaded BBS style boards such as the old Mr. Cranky boards and the current 2ch, 2chan, and 4chan boards.
That kind of board is a different animal, and you'd be better served looking at solutions like Futallaby than complaining about "bloat."
Guest posting is turned off on my own forums because the only people who used it were spammers and some shithead I used to talk to on IRC harassing me because I said his boyfriend was a jerk.

Thanks, now my friend can quit bitching about how the admin panel is "broken."

Appears at the top of the page when entering the admin panel. Everything seems to work A-Ok otherwise.
The server is running PHP 4.3.10 and MySQL 4.0.23-standard-log and I just upgraded from punBB 1.1.5 with no mods.
