Were we getting back to this after the Challenge? I know that's where most of us will be occupied anyway

Should we hold off till November? I've got a few deadlines around October so wouldn't mind, but also don't want to lose all momentum.

Ok. Think we need to select and validate a host that works with phpBB and go from there. But won't stress about it for now.

OK, people got to watch as many horror movies as they could fit in, and we even got to sit through the most unbearably angry and hateful election in living memory. Now we can get back to one of our actual required topics. Getting new HMF off the ground, so that we are not a proboards-board. Will need to go through what we need to do as we go along, but hopefully there is some will to continue with this from the HMF family at large.

Will revelling in the election help us find a host and software for the forum? No? Thought not.

Never know. Trump might fix globat. Your obsession with Globat is as bad as your obsession with crackpot theories.

let's make hmf great again! Sebastian T Groth is calling for a total shutdown of new members entering HMF until we figure out what the hell is going on. We're going to build a firewall. A yuge, beautiful firewall.

Will Net Neutrality impede us? From my understanding of Net Neutrality, all data would be treated as equal, no matter the creator. it helps keep it a level playing field. So if it remains in place, it means that we shouldn't be impeded by not being Bloody Disgusting. Technically if FCC moves ahead with paid content programming, our status as a "free site" would likely put us out of the top tier and into any lower tiers that it comes with. However, being a basic forum site, you'd anticipate that we don't need that much high-speed internet in order to work. Our forums work on mobiles via 3G right now, so I don't think we'll be the most affected. In theory we could be basically asked to pay to work faster. guess that would be pretty bad. Of course I don't know how we could circumvent that, short of lobbying the FCC or getting a senator on our side. If you know anyone...

If necessary, I'll ship Jason to Washington. He'll get the right man for the job.

I still don't understand Net Neutrality, but because people are now pissed that Trump is apparently for it, I thought I'd mention it here.
