I'm willing to take on the role of banning people with impunity. But that's all I'm willing to do. Starting with Pat Cash Out.
Ahem
Which of us is yin and who is yang?
I didn't want to beat a dead horse but if 6CM is gonna die... lets get on that ASAP so that we can watch our team score and win again before the site closes. giddy up.I'm willing to take on the role of banning people with impunity. But that's all I'm willing to do. Starting with Pat Cash Out.
Everyone loves dantes tbf...Hate discord... you are forcing me to go to RAWK and this is a bad bad bad day.
Damn you. I thought we were 4eva.
My heart is torn into a million pieces.
I even love Dantes the mad little fucker.
Weirdly I’ve never been on Reddit. Ever. I think that’s a bit odd. Funnily enough I’ve noticed recently that I hardly use tinter klacker much these days. A few FB posts. BBC. This place and of course midgetporn.com. I guess I should dive in to wonders of Reddit.I only use Reddit for NSFW shit. Did i say that out loud?

Probably about 8 subreddits for midgetporn already.Weirdly I’ve never been on Reddit. Ever. I think that’s a bit odd.

My money is mostly tied up in top, top investments!Top top investor only offering a 'few quid'
Cough up man!!
Vbulletin has forum install for 250 quid and hosting for 15 a month. Can even pay for someone to set it up.
Never used it, just found it from a quick Google.

Te forum maintainers but the first one I've found is almost a grand a year.
Put our running costs up a fair bit.
Jono has kindly offered to migrate us to the new xenforo but we need to find someone on here to maintain it or pay someone.
Xenforo was made by the people who originally created vBulletin. When vBulletin was sold up they created a newer better forum software in Xenforo. Going to vBulletin is a backward step. Surely you can can migrate to Xenforo newer version and then just shift to a newer secure host. The admin should be fairly straightforward for most tech savvy people. Integrations to social media etc are all plugin based anyway so shouldn't be too difficult with some FTP knowledge.Research is needed migrate xenforo db into in vbulletin..
You can do it the other way round... but I am not sure from xenforo to Vbulletin
Beside you want to keep xenforo it is the better software with better support.. but costs more to run..
Ditto..I am not sure I have ever felt more out of my depth than in this thread. I don't even understand what needs doing, so although I can be 100% sure that I can't do it, I couldn't even begin to research anyone who could!
However, I have been here from the start. I would hate for the site to close. I can probably only really help by chipping in a bit of cash if and when you need donations, but I'm certainly happy to do so.
No the problem is the infrastructure we are on a legacy version of PHP, which cannot be upgraded because of the legacy Linux varient it resides on..Xenforo was made by the people who originally created vBulletin.

This a great idea. And something I was hoping someone would bring up and investigate further.. It would certainly attract more visitors to the table due to being totally accessible on pretty much every medium and platform
We are in the social media age so reddits invite integration with Discord and other social media platforms would serve the community quite well.
However we have to consider the old timers here and get them on board with these new technologies.. as well as the content we post and historic content..
I don't think we would get away with half the stuff on Reddit as we do here.. Streams Nsfw etc.. However that's what discord invite integration with Reddit is for..
It certainly worth considering..
You could probably create redirect of our domain name to the subreddit too via a landing page..
Depends on reddits T&Cs I guess..

Xenforo 1.x cannot be upgraded with our version of PHP to Xenforo 2.x. its not supported..
No option but to build from scratch or use a managed web host that has that implemented for you..
Then import the the database.. probably best installing xenforo 1.x on the new host, import the database then upgrade to xenforo 2.x
