I was moving my site to its new URL yesterday, and I came across something that would allow phpBB and InvisionFree boards as subdirectories on my site. For instance, the main board is: www.subarashiidream.net/community/If the link isn't found, that means the site is still not on the DNS. Anyway, I was wondering if it would be okay with the GMods and Sailor Mercury if Sailor Mercury Online might be better off as a phpBB board? Also, I'm offering the GMods and Sailor Mercury e-mail addresses at subarashiidream.net. Me? I think this is a good idea. I just need responses from everyone else - especially the GMods and Sailor Mercury. |

I afraid I'm going to have to put in a negative vote here. Sorriz. phpBB is a really good type of forum, but I think a good community is made by the pplz that post on it, not the type of script. Besides, we're all here and we're doing great, why switch?
I know it would be an improvement to move to something better, like phpBB or vB (if it were free), but that would require moving 500+ members, not to mention a WHOLE lotta threads and posts, etc.
I've seen forums moving to other types before, and it wasn't pretty. Great losses have been suffered amongst the members. Starting all over again with posts, post counts, threads, etc. Sorry, but I don't think this is such a good idea, although it looks quite tempting at first sight.

True. You persuaded me by saying things I didn't think of. If I could only change my vote...

Don't worry, it's okay to come with suggestions. We'll see where this leads when others come to state their vote + opinion.

Yeah, I mean... if I had absolutely nothing else to do with my life I might consider it  But I just don't have the time nor the care factor (as bad as that might sound) to move the whole board over to a new URL. It was a good suggestion, so don't be deterred from making any, it's just not really plausible at this current point in time... |

How would you like a redirection, then?
smo.subarashiidream.net redirecting to here?

Does anyone object and why?
