    Bendensin got a reaction from Rikki in Twenty years of Invision Community   
    I think I bought Invision Board (Wasn't it called Invision Power Board)? in that first year.
    I intended to create the number one websites and communities about the Republic of Turkey. And I didn't want to go with one of the free boards. I wanted The Cadillac of forums. Even in that first year I could see that Invision Power Board was the best. So I bought it and installed it and have been using it ever since.
    It didn't have the capacity for articles. Or for a directory like Yahoo. So I created them myself. They didn't talk to Invision Board. My site was kind of a mess. Then Invision added Content. Which solved my problem. I bought that and transferred all of my articles into Invision Content.
    Then Facebook came along. It was killing me.
    But Facebook has a profound weakness. It doesn't handle complex content. Invision Community does. So instead of Facebook ruining my life, I now exploit it. Often there are questions on Facebook requiring a complex answer. I reply, but then link to my Invision Community article which explains everything.
    I now have a separate site about Turkish residence permits. Lots of articles and a forum, among other things.
    Looking back I think buying and installing Invision Board was one of the best decisions I've made.
    Your support is fantastic. Very polite and professional. Even if I have what I later find was a dumb question, your support staff helps me, even walks me through things.
    I was with you from the beginning and I will be with you to the end.
    Thanks to all of you at Invision Community. You are still the "Cadillac" of communities.
