Let's start with a little "behind the scenes" information on yourself. What is your background and how long have you been on the web?

Bookie
Well, I've been on the web for about 4 years now. I originally started by just
gaming and was a real newbie to the web, had no clue about anything. After playing
Diablo on Battle.net for a few months, I met up with some people in a clan.
Long story short, they bought a domain and I started to get into graphics and
web design, and slowly learned on my own.

UBBDev
What is your favorite movie of all time?

Bookie
My favorite movie, I'd have to saaay... Night at the Roxbury. Yes, that's right,
Night at the Roxbury. So what if it got two thumbs down? I love it, sooo funny...

UBBDev
What soda do ya like?

Bookie
Easy, Molson Canadian.

UBBDev
What do you like and dislike most about the UBB™?

Bookie
Well, I love the design and the low maintenance it requires, and also the great
look and design. But even better is the way you can enhance the design to your
liking, and add all the great hacks at UBBDev

UBBDev
Are there any "tricks of the trade" you'd like to share that any UBB™
owner can use to improve the success of their site?

Bookie
No, they're mine!! ALL MINE!! Actually, for real, you need to have: professional
colors which match your site, graphics to spice it up, and most importantly,
you have to make it unique. What you need is to create something that will blow
people's minds, and not share how you did it with ANYONE! Or, you can if you
want.

UBBDev
What is yours and your users favorite UBB™ hack?

Bookie
Well, it was Who's Online, but its not up there anymore, so I'm gonna
have to say the Compact Headers by Skorpion. Those really make the forum look
a lot better.

UBBDev
Why did you pick UBB™ over other software?

Bookie
Back when V5 was out, I was visiting a site which had it, and thought that it
looked amazing, and it looked as if it functioned well too. Over at Clan-316.com,
the people never really had a way of communicating either, because of the variety
of games, so I decided that we could absolutely not live without UBB™.
