What's New?
Currently.... SBC has hit over 500 members! This is great news for us, and hopefully we'll be getting to 600 members soon. Also, a brand new contest is going on. The first 5 users to find a golden ticket hidden somewhere on the forum, will get early access to v7! Congratulations to SOF who was the first person to find the ticket. Remember - use your heads! There are only 3 spots left. See the "Lost Temple" announcement on the homepage for more. Speaking of contests, don't forget to participate in our other contest to put a funny, original caption on an image. The winner will receive 1000 doubloons.
In the future... SBC will be moving to vBulletin on August 26th, 2011. This will also be the launch of v7. We had a good time on forumotion, but it is time for us to move. Stay tuned for more!Richest Users

SBC is Moving to vBulletin!
Users of SBC!
It is with great pleasure that I deliver you a spectacular piece of information, although you probably already knew what it was from the title (and the rumors). But I'll say it anyway! Towards the end of the year, we will be moving to vBulletin! What does this mean? Well, several things:
There are TONS of other features we will be doing, but you'll just have to wait until the end of the year to find those out.
DONATIONS: You CAN donate if you'd like, although I am already going to pay for it. But if you want to spend less money, you can totally donate. (But you don't have to AT ALL, and it's extremely okay if you don't, I have it covered)
It is with great pleasure that I deliver you a spectacular piece of information, although you probably already knew what it was from the title (and the rumors). But I'll say it anyway! Towards the end of the year, we will be moving to vBulletin! What does this mean? Well, several things:
- A Completely Re-Done Homepage/Portal: Now, when you visit SBC, you will be presented with a re-imagined interface that kicks our current portal's butt. It will feature tons of SBC news, Spongebob news, and other possibilities!
- Endless Limitations: We've sort of run out of things to actually add on here on Forumotion. Sure, it's great and a lot of people don't want to leave but it is the natural next step. We need to move on; we've spent two years here building up and getting more mature. Now we're ready to move on. We can really do anything we'd like because we're PAYING for it.
- No Decrease in Activity: With some coding MDPP is going to install, anybody who enters this Forumotion site will automatically be sent to the new site. That basically morphs both sites into one, so that anybody whether it be guests or members who clicks on THIS link will be sent to the new URL. No hassle and best of all, no decrease in activity!
- Amazing Profiles: Profiles that we have here really do suck, to blatantly state it. Sure, they have most features other forums have, but they aren't presented in a pleasing or easy way. With this new set of Profiles, we get a whole new UI that I guarantee you will love. It supports REAL blogs and will help you to socialize with other SBCers more easily.
- Security!: It is MUCH safer than we thought Forumotion is. Hack-proof, and it will be a much better environment than Forumotion is. You can freely post without worry of the Lights going out (as Shinya put it ).
There are TONS of other features we will be doing, but you'll just have to wait until the end of the year to find those out.
DONATIONS: You CAN donate if you'd like, although I am already going to pay for it. But if you want to spend less money, you can totally donate. (But you don't have to AT ALL, and it's extremely okay if you don't, I have it covered)

Re: SBC is Moving to vBulletin!
Fucking A. vBulletin is definitely a good leap forward. The Articles feature would help getting SB news out there with style. Profiles also offer more for you to do with some customization such ad layouts and shit. Social groups members can create and join, a bookie system could finally come to fruition, and all that jazz. Where you getting the money to pay for it?

Re: SBC is Moving to vBulletin!
vBulletin looks awesome, but I really want to stay at Forumotion for two reasons:
1. Why give up on the site that started it all?
2. Didn't All That Glitters teach us a lesson? All that glitters is not gold. vBulletin may look amazing, but in the end, it could very well turn out that what we needed all along was Forumotion.

If we move, I say we keep up Forummotion in case vBulletin doesn't work out.

Re: SBC is Moving to vBulletin!
I assume he hates the idea of the forumotion link being merged with the vBulletin, thus rendering this forum unusable if things fall through.

No, we can take off the code when we want, thus making this forum reusable.

But also the last hackings taught us that Forumotion is not save at all, so at the end, it's for the best.CDCB wrote:vBulletin looks awesome, but I really want to stay at Forumotion for two reasons:

Re: SBC is Moving to vBulletin!
Seems promising. Would the user accounts be automatically moved or would we have to recreate accounts?

They'd be moved. Everything would roughly be moved, except for widgets, which we'll have to recreate.

It better be, if I'm paying $280 for it.

Re: SBC is Moving to vBulletin!
Looking forward to the new site!
As much as I love forumotion, we aren't safe here as the recent spam attacks have shown. We came back here knowing that this stay won't be permanent and while it will be hard to leave forumotion after all that we have been through, I want to feel safe whenever I come onto this site. I don't want to have to deal with wondering if we are going to get hacked today.
Anywho, vBulletin really is great and I appreciate you paying for this move tvman. Much obliged.

It's totally fine. I already have half of it, and I COULD pay for it right now but (personally) I still want to have a few hundred for myself. xD But I'll have recreated the fund by November/December.

Re: SBC is Moving to vBulletin!
vBulletin seems like a good idea. I was once in a video game forum that used vBulletin and it worked like a charm, although you have to pay for the service, On the contrary you don't have to pay on Zetaboards but it doesn't have all the features vBulletin can offer. I approve the idea since it could take us forward.
Re: SBC is Moving to vBulletin!
Meh, as much as I like Zetaboards, it too is hacker prone.

Hey, there's nothing to apologize for. We just aren't looking to giving that site away; sorry. It's technically a backup of this site, a copy, but we don't use it. It has all our forums and our name, so we don't want to give that away. I hope you understand.
Enjoy SBC!

Actually, staff will be given access VERY soon once MDPP and I can set everything up. Then we might let Good Noodle in early () and then everyone on August 26. Nothing is official though, besides the release date.

Yes, but that estimate was just that. An estimate. It was a terrible estimate, since we're two months ahead of schedule, which is great. And no, no spin offs will be effected. Everything on the forums will be carried over.

Are you at least going to temporarily lock the forum on the 25th or something, just to make sure everything gets through?
