I've gotten a skeleton HMF onto our new forum structure. The sooner we get posting the sooner we can get back to "normal" as it were. When should we phase over to HMF and away from proboards. What are people's thoughts.

I thought we were waiting until we were sure phpbb and hostgator would do everything we wanted them to do, so as to avoid having to come back here if it didn't work out.

I was never planning on decommissioning here, but could try to get that place looking active. You're right though, we are still exploring what it can do.

i don't think we should make a full migration away from here, or advertise that hmf is back just yet, but the place should definitely be more active than it is for those that do happen across it.

like i said before i tried to move a thread from the introduction topic to the general topic, and it's still showing up in the introduction topic. and also now that we have it, should actually be in the music topic. we need to clean up and get stuff sorted.

We can either jump in and start doing it or jerk around forever waiting for perfection. Push forward! Progress! I am with her!

I am with her! i guess you mistook what i was saying. i do want progress. i do want the place to be active. but just not to go and advertise it yet. at least that's my thought.

Foo, you're moderately knowledgeable in real estate, no? Do you leave the piss stained rugs, roach infested floors and moldy countertops when you present a house for potential buyers? Or do you fix the ever loving fuck out of that place and make it as comfortable a transition as possible?
We wait. And when it is fixed. WE STRIKE AT DAWN

If the cost of the repair is greater than the increase in equity, you make no repair. In this instance, the cost of inaction is greater than the cost of action. You take every opportunity to bring people into the community. Simply state the mission and that it is under a rebuild, but the community itself is over a decade old. Again, there was no activity moving forward here for how long? Don't stall. Take action and move forward. There is no reason that discussion and growth cannot happen there while the skins and such are being applied.

And the rugs are not "piss stained", they are seasoned with love.
