What is this tosh? "PHPBuilder.com, the best resource for PHP tutorials, templates, PHP manuals, content management systems, scripts, classes and more"?

It messes up the forum screen category trail, and it is making all my phpb emails appear as junk in my email, because the from header is now "<"PHPBuilder.com, the best resource for PHP tutorials, templates, PHP"@.com>", which coincidentally i can't add to my safe list.

    Heh, I came here to post a thread on the subject. An overzealous hack to the phpbb code perhaps, as a marketing strategy.

    You should see what the Mozilla mail client does to it....

    and, yes, it has borken my nice lil' mail sorting system for the time being...haven't yet tried to alter the rules, but I think it'll be OK here. But I certainly don't like it, either as a "Sender" string or at the head of the nav chain. I suppose it's OK as a browser title, but the string is still too long, even at 1280x1024, for the browser to show the whole thing ... craps out around "and" ...

      Why would they change that? A new marketing program in action? Aren't there already 80 gazillion visitors to this place? May I ask more questions, please?

        Honestly speaking it's a bit falacious as well. While this is the best (IMO) community for php on the web. It doesn't offer the best manuals, templates, tutorials, cms's, scripts or classes as there are other places with a much larger library of these things to choose from out there.

          Nah, it's an accident, I think. I need to check with everyone to make sure it wasn't intentional. I was asked to change the title and I think vB changes it in both places.

          More at 10...

            We're working on this. It's EOB on the East Coast, so we may not know anything until tomorrow. The biggest issue is avoiding another board hack.
