The original Oni Central Forum, now referred to as the Carnage board because it (and other B.org forums) ran on the carnage.bungie.org subdomain, was a threaded board running on simple software known as WebBBS. In March 2003, Harry decided to move to modern forum software, and OCF was restarted on the ikonBoard software, which presented the indexed, flat style of forum that is usually seen on the Internet today. | The original Oni Central Forum, now referred to as the Carnage board because it (and other B.org forums) ran on the carnage.bungie.org subdomain, was a threaded board running on simple software known as WebBBS.

The ikonBoard forum's database became corrupted in April '05, at which point OCF was moved to the Infinite Core Technology (ICT) software. Due to general dissatisfaction with ICT's quirks, OCF moved to the speedy, simple PunBB software starting in January '07. Longtime members of the community stated their hope at the time that this would be the final move of the forum. | The ikonBoard forum's database became corrupted in April '05, at which point OCF was moved to the Infinite Core Technology (ICT) software.

Longtime members of the community stated their hope at the time that this would be the final move of the forum. In April of 2011, a minor change in the forum software occurred when the board was moved from PunBB to FluxBB, a fork of PunBB that was being more actively maintained. | ||
