The ultimate question, with a different answer from practically every person. My opinion is always that the core should be as minimal as possible. Necessary functionality with everything else being an optional addition. Even the debate of what is absolutely necessary isn't always plain sailing either.

Quote:Personally, I think MyBB has too many features included by default, which really should be left to plugins.  How many sites make use of the Calendar, for example?  I guess I can take a compromise if you can disable it (you can, though it does leave a dead link), but then, if many sites don't use it, why include it by default?

Glad to hear I'm not the only one who finds that point notable. I can see no point whatsoever leaving a link available to a disabled facility. Disabled should mean that the links disappear, IMHO.
