i have around 15 licences and pay a small fortune and now being restricted? I am also been using invision for 17 odd years or more and now feel like Invision do not appreciate loyal customers.

It's not easy making money from communities and I would imagine some really do struggle and having a cloud solution really doesn't work for them.

Slight sour taste now.

This is 100% on the "phase 2" list.

Same. I've got 5 of them all with similar names and it was always a bit of a hassle/pain to figure out which was which.

I think the most useful bit is that you can retarget visitors who may have hit your site. It's a great way to reach people who already have some kind of interest in what you do.

what worries me about Giphy is that if 10 years down the road they do a photobucket trick and then suddenly your community is full of broken GIF images. I decided that I would disable this feature in fear that it may not last.

I may consider it for one section such as general chat if it can be configured to choose where Giphy is enabled.

Great reply Joel. 
Regarding Pages v Forum. With a Pages database, you can create labels and fields to help with the workflow. 

Need the feature of letting me download a persons data in a PDF. I bet you this will be requested many times. we need this feature

16 years ago i was using XMB and the bigger the thread got the slower it became, so switched to IPB which worked very well. Never looked back.

For existing Invision clients, I think this is also a great opportunity to think about recruiting and converting Facebook groups to your community.  This enables you to become a "community of communities" on your IPS platform, with multiple sub-groups, clans, or tribes.  You can set them up with their own Club or integrate into your main community:
Provide a haven.  There are people deleting and leaving Facebook every day, especially in light of the Cambridge Analytica scandal.  Why not provide a new space for those groups who are looking for a shared vision and mission without the constant privacy issues of Facebook?   Get revolutionary growth by adding a major block of new members.  It's hard to attract members on a one-by-one basis and the regular organic growth may be slow.  When you attract and entice a group owner, you bring his entire group over in one migration.   Build out your niche.  Add all the knowledge and topics of your sub-communities to strengthen your existing knowledge.  The new clubs can either broaden the relevancy of your niche, or deepen your community's authority.   Become an Admiral, not a Captain.  A captain steers one boat.  An admiral steers a fleet of boats.  It's a whole new level of challenges and rewards when you administer a community of communities where you lead multiple captains.  It gives you power in numbers to do more, with more members, more activity, more enthusiasm and creativity.     I think there's never been a better time to go fishing in Facebook's muddy waters, and to start poaching Facebook groups who are looking for a new home.  

I have been with you guys for 15 years! And how it has grown and i definitely made the right choice back then.
