I figured we'd get up to 10-15 members, spend a week or two complaining about the events which led to the site's creation and then slowly fizzle out. Because of that I picked a free forum software package to limit the upfront costs of starting the website. This software has been great for the past 6+ months but moving on our needs can be better served upgrading to vBulletin, which is far and away the best forum software available.

Thanks to a generous donation from one of our members I was able to purchase a vBulletin 4 license. It has been set up in a testing environment and we are working on getting the kinks ironed out. I will be making the switch over Memorial Day weekend.

There are a few things I want to make you aware of once the switch takes place.
1. You will need to reset your password. I will have instructions posted on the new site for doing this.
2. You will need to re-upload your avatar if you use one.
3. You will need to re-enter your user title if you use one.

Hopefully the transition will be smooth and only take a few minutes. I will do it over night while traffic is low so that fewer people will be effected by the downtime.

Thanks,
Justin
Yes, we see that you disabled replies for your thread.
Yes, we know that you are in gay-cahoots with JJ the Huddle and Eric "Twelve Dollar" Frantz
Yes, we know that mtrulz is really your nephew.

It's time for a revolt. What are you, Facebook, changing crap all the time? Ohiochatterer/freehuddlerer posters unite! (Except mtrulz).

I didn't disable replies to the thread. It isn't a thread. It's an announcement. Idiot.

$12 JJ's isn't even running vBulletin 4 (theirs is 3.6, which came out 2006 with updates in 2007-08), yet the free site can swing it just on donations alone.

Hopefully they don't sue again for making them look bad.

Ernest...you're such an idiot. Most of your posts are soooo childish and elementary. You know what though...I laugh my ass off every time (ie. "slurp, slurp, slurp" on your own post). I hate you, but you're pretty funny.
