In this short article I do not want to go into the XenForo (limited) company, but help us all get to know the guys behind it a bit better. We’ve recently had a wonderful interview with Kier and Mike – and so had a few others. And they’ve got a few team members helping out on the boards.

Interviews with Kier, Mike and Ashley:
Interview with Mike and Kier at XenFans.com
“We’ve had the opportunity to interview Mike Sullivan and Kier Darby from XenForo Limited, and ask them a few questions about their new company and upcoming forum product.”
Interview with Kier Darby at ForumPromotion.net
“On behalf of forumpromotion.net, I have had the pleasure to interview Kier – one of the most talented forum software developers in the world – about his brand new software which has smashed the current commercial forum software market, with just a preview of the first Alpha of XenForo.”
Interview with Mike Sullivan at The Admin Zone
“The look and feel of the forum is simple, clean and organic but the atmosphere is quite reminiscent of the vBulletin.com of old, and many of the faces are familiar. You’ll definitely recognize the names of Team XenForo – Kier Darby, Mike Sullivan, and Ashley Busby.”
We’re certain that others, as well as xenfans, and our group of friends will come together and poke XenForo Limited with additional questions that will go indepth into the product, and the people behind it. We’re currently building a final list of questions for Ashley and the XenMod team. But the above interviews are a great way to start to get a feel of who’s behind the new forum product, and how motivated they are at making something that’s modern and ready for the future.
The XenForo Moderator team has been introduced a month ago and has done a great job since. We have been in direct contact with Peggy and Lawrence for a while now, discussing threads on the site, as well as helping report potential posts that go out of line. And their friendly response has helped shape the xenforo community a bit more to what it already is now.
And with XenForo.com/community having reached over 2,000 members posting over 60,000 messages since only as recent as July 28th 2010, they company can use all the help from their volunteer staff that they can get.
Peggy Gurney (Profile) was first introduced, followed by Lawrence Kazimer (profile).
We’re hoping to ask them both a few questions soon about their experience, keep an eye on the xenfans.com site for that blog.
