Without any hesitation... nothing. You do a really good job here,Marc.
However, I will take it that you asked this as part of a genuine quest for improvement. I will think about it and see if I can come up with something.

Refine the search engine.

Can't do that. It's 'built in' vBulletin and I definitely don't have the knowledge to try to code something better. But, that is why, on the main search page, I put in a Google link to search the site. And, on top of searching the forum, the Google Search will search the whole site.
I do agree - The built in vBulletin search engine is poor.

Re: If the Elsmar Cove Forums and Web Site was Yours, What would you do to Improve?
The only thing I would change is some of the layout. It could be a bit more appealing (read: easier to navigate). Other than that I like it :-)

Re: If the Elsmar Cove Forums and Web Site was Yours, What would you do to Improve?
Marc,
I mainly use the "Post Last 24 Hour" page. It would be nice to be able to start a new thread directly form that page.
Other than that, all is good.
Thank you for all of the work,
Phil

Something that could facilitate the new user... i.e. how to start a thread, how to take full benefit of this website.etc
Other than that it is good.

Re: If the Elsmar Cove Forums and Web Site was Yours, What would you do to Improve?
This site is tremendous. I would only ask that we all bear in mind, when we are giving advice, that there is such a huge variety in type and size of organisation and quality system, and it can be tough to interpret and implement the guidance that is given. Thanks.
