Torque3d.net being revamped

Well folks, I went to log into the website the other day and it was down, it had a few php errors and I'm not going to deal with that-the Torque3d community deserves better than some retarded errors! So I'm switching the to a new CMS... At this time I'm using Joomla and phpBB for the forums unless I get some collaborative strong opinions to use something else.
That said I want to know what does this community want module wise, what do you'll want template wise? You shove the template in my face and I hear a majority vote on it then I'll utilize it. This is for both Joomla and phpBB. What are you'll looking for module wise? Find the module and I'll throw into the CMS.
Do you only want phpBB? Do you only want Joomla? What links? What tutorials should be on the fore front of my list to get up and going?
To make my point: Torque3d is not mine-it's y'alls. I just purchased it for y'all as an EARLY valentines present. So make what you will of it! :) I'll be taking notes to see if I see trends in the wants, PLEASE if you like a template that someone else likes then go ahead and second/third/fourth/etc that vote so I can see the developing trend and know to go that route. Likewise with modules. Thanks ladies and gents!

Heck no Lukas! I wouldn't do that. Sometimes members of this community let me down but I wouldn't punish the mass to get to the few! :PI think it should be noted if anyone wants to make a banner for the website I would like to see what people can come up with :D

Personally, I would switch to Wordpress instead.

Joomla is getting a bit oldschool. Personally, I would switch to Wordpress instead.

Ah Nils I've used wordpress and one of my concerns is that on it's last update one of my websites completely locked up with a similar error... my only mistake-going into the admin and clicking update -_-

Looking at the way GG is used it seems that you all like to communicate via blogs, but the blogs here are really just a forum *no offense*. I'll try to capitalize on that idea and give you a better experience. What I'm aiming to do is have the forums in Torque3D.net act as you use blogs here.
Now I think in doing this I need to have some sort of portion of the site that is separate and can be used as an information gathering source, Forums are for collaboration and Q/A. So what can be used for a knowledge base?
I'll be adding some modules including Steam and xFire, so we can communicate find each other to communicate outside of the website and a freakin browser!
Updates to come!
