Also, how can you fail? This board will be here. There is literally nothing on HMF.

If you want to be cheap and safe, you could simply make this forum be HMF.com.

Research or read Food thing and see what is good. for foo's link of the top 15, they all seem like decent options but phpbb and zetaboards look the most promising to me. w11.zetaboards.com/All_Things_Horror/index/ <-- a horror place using zetaboards. looks like something we could work with. i think that phpbb was preferred overall, when we had talked about this in the past though.

(the url was at zetaboards) i'll keep looking into it.

Your bluntness and smacks to the chin are fine, Foo, afterall you do it to liberals all the time, which I love. I think our biggest obstacle with this has been time, in which you know well and better than most. One thing I think you are undercutting is that no one wants to fuck this up either. A number of us were vetting hosts and looking into that and shit hit a wall, similar to your "open source" thing now etc. Things weren't aligning with the HMF way. And then, what is the "HMF way" for the future? All this social media shit drives me insane. The major thing you said that hit home is that it's the experience, talking with all you magnificent motherfuckers is what makes it work, not the software or whatever. So you can go fuck yourself that anyone here wants to see it die. Somebody has to kick this team in the ass! Divide and conquer. Step one - ask who is willing to contribute time and how much they are willing to give Step two - set a deadline Step three - put it into motion I am being 100% serious when I say this is a five hour job. Look at the fucking new-found boss/manager and shiz. Step One- We have agreed to phpBB as being the forum software, so Seb, Z, Tigg, you and I will crack down now on the Host. (I say you in help and how do you actually transfer a domain name you own?) Step Two- July 4th would be more apt, but let's shoot for Memorial Day, a month away, you really think it's a five hour job, a month should be good to kick the tires and light the fires. Step Three- It's in motion. D and Jason are assigned to creating the layout/style etc.

For the URL to transfer, the new host will make a request to global to release the domain after I provide them with the security code. That is the only thing that takes any real time.

I have already put in a lot of study into hosts and HostGator was the best option in my opinion for price and censorship worries.

Step Three- It's in motion. D and Jason are assigned to creating the layout/style etc. It looks like it only takes minutes to get this thing going. The tweeking would take the most time. This video is 2 yrs old but has a lot of info. I like the part about privacy and the owners name. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pur1c6Ui9wcI don't think it is as hard as we think with that quick install button on phpBB.
