Some of those things are settings in the admin side of things that I think can be tweaked. But i am definitely going to keep track!
they responded and said the feedback would be discussed with their teams!
Fingers crossed it goes well.

Another quick note to say they've added our feedback items to their feedback team agenda for discussion.
Birthdays can be hidden by going into your profile, changing the drop down boxes to select the 'blank field' and hit save and the birthday info will disappear from your profile.

The birthday thing is easy to change ourselves, but if something is set to private on these boards a migration to the new ones shouldn't then make that information public in the first place (or people should at least be notified that the information is no longer private so they can change it if they wish) If DOB isn't required to register on the new boards, maybe they shouldn't carry that information over? Minor issue, and not one that worries me personally, but I don't think if follows GDPR.
Anyhoo

It's pretty cool that they seem responsive to feedback! Did they say when their meeting was?

I've talked with Asc and since we HAVE to move I suggested we move to a self hosted solution across the board. Our biggest hurdle is getting all the data from the forum since Zetaboards won't give us our data.
In the light of that I started scraping the website this weekend and I think I have successfully scraped all the pages.

A few notes:
-
<li style="display:none">
</li>
- the items listed as a link on the index page do not work.
- Categories go no where
- A lot of the boards in the OOC section have the first Post on every single page so they are going to show up multiple times.
My next goal is to start working on a conversion script for mybb board system as they have a merge system that I should be able to tweak for our needs.

This is the base theme I'll use to make it FA style when/if I get that far.
The goal is to move everything to thefirstage.org under our full control. (And it's actually cheaper for Asc to move too!)

Mmm...good luck? I barely know what you people are talking about.
