It surely is re-imagined. For example: http://boards.4chan.org/c/ Even with 4chan we think moot.it is the best domain name for us and we'll both see how it works.

Thanks! You can be sure that we're doing this very seriously and we see a lot of business opportunities but more about that later.. The fact is that we're not afraid to get the Big Load of Many forums.

Well there should be nothing stopping you from writing lengthy, thoughtful posts – there is no 160 character limit, (in fact, there's no limit). There are line breaks, paragraph breaks, syntax highlight, black and white (vectorized) unintru

Nested comments is something we actually decided not to implement. Look at this HN thread for example. It's very hard to follow and see what are the new ones. Sometimes I search for "minutes" to get entries that are within last hour. If y

I listed a few points on this comment: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4726735 The closest competitors for us are (or how we see this) are - discuss (for commenting) - google groups (for forums) And we think the biggest advantage is i

That's true. I think JLehtinen refers to the fact that if you are about to pick a forum software on your site today you still have to choose from these very old systems.

This is definitely on the top of our priorities after v1 laungh. Just want the first version out sooner than later and we excluded this feature in purpose. There are two ways to implement this and we'll study these under flowplayer.org site

Yea. There are other meanings too making the name a bit controversial. Cannot be a bad thing for raising discussion.

Yea. We're aware of both of these. branch is definitely a good one but it's really a different product and market. it's not forums and not really a commenting system for your site also. and we don't take pivory very seriously

Yea. You are so right! Flowplayer simply offers us a very good platform to make it production ready. It is relatively high traffic.

Yea. There are definitely something good going on with Stack Exchange but there is lot's of re-thinking on Moot - forums can be embedded on our site with just a few lines of HTML and it works out of the box - because it's a true integration

1) Not in v1 but you can simply hide those like and other "clutter" with CSS since the forum is sitting on your site. 2) The data will reside on our servers and it's public. Later we'll have private posts too.

Absolutely not. We will never sell data and we hate ads. In future we're going to charge for private posts.

Moot = verb (used with object) to present or introduce (any point, subject, project, etc.) for discussion. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/moot Cannot think of a better domain name.

I can make it configurable for site owners and users but I'd rather find good keys that doesn't need to be changed. +/- are quite good .. maybe shift + arrow keys?

But not on iPads or environments where Flash is not supported. They have certainly improved here but definitely not reliable everywhere. And obviously Android we'll make Flowplayer work on stock Android browser. That's a oversight from our
