 |  Subject: Updates on the Move  Sun Sep 28, 2008 9:05 pm | |
| I have found a host that will most likely work for us and I am going to set up the beta of WW Forums 3.0 there, even though this forum will still remain the main one until Forumotion finally blows it in the next few months.
I am now taking a poll for which forum package we should use.
phpBB 2.x.x
Pretty much the same version of forum we are using right now. However, since Forumotion has manipulated all their looks, it will look slightly different. Also, phpBB2 has a variety of MODs we can install, like a shop and arcade.
Example of a default installation: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d9/PhpBB_2.0.png
phpBB 3.x.x
The latest version of phpBB. It's difficult to set up, and hard to manage, but it might be pretty ideal for WW. Remember when we temporarily switched to phpBB3 a few times? It's going to look a lot different.
Example of a default installation: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/01/Phpbb_3.0_prosilver.png
Simple Machines Forum 1.x.x
Remember Drew's old forum everybody flocked to when we were having wars a while back? That's basically what SMF is, it's very limited but might be pretty good.
Example of a default installation: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/69/SMF.png
MyBB 1.4.x
If anyone has been to Drew's Banjo-Universe (see affiliates), that's MyBB. Apparently it has good features and the plugins (MODs) are easy to install.
Example of a default installation: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/8c/Mybbindex.png
I might add some more later, so stay tuned. If you would like to request, go ahead, but I'm not paying $200 for vBulletin or another costly forum package either. Most webhosts don't allow big, huge, pay-to-use forum packages anyway.
Multiple choice is allowed.

| I personally voted phpBB2, it truthfully is more simple than SMF (remember what I said, Forumotion manipulated their forums), and because we can add more features that are also easy to use.
MyBB looks good too, so I voted it as well.

I suggest you pay more attention.
I said, our FULL MOVE isn't until if Forumotion finally screws up badly in a few months. Even if this new forum is set up tomorrow, this will still be the main one until then.

Yes. Why go through all the trouble and then abandon it? Plus, even if Forumotion shuts us down because of Waddle's hissy fits over us having the same name, or some other weird reason, we have a backup.

There's a portal MOD for pretty much every forum out there, but it will take a while to install because I am inexperienced with them. However, Forumotion is using a custom one, so it may be different.

| Official Host Confirmation
I have found a better host that will suit us, and I have already set up a website for our forum to be installed on. 30gb, so we won't run out of room. 
The poll has 24 hours until it is closed. After it is closed, the forum package with the most votes will be immediately downloaded. Currently, MyBB is in the lead.

For example, there may be more and different widgets, all the widgets might be stuck together, there may be a lot of changes, in other words, it will more than likely look nothing like our current portal.

aww, that sucks, well i can handle it, hopefully everyone who is here comes to the backup board, if this site turns dead while the other one grows, will you make a redirect thing that goes to the other board? i said if this one becuase DEAD, no one here, no post in 3 months or something like that, would you? lol, yea, you said both would be open, but do you have it in mind?
