I tried looking it up but didn't really see anything. It may have been possibly asked before, but has anyone ever contemplated on making an app version of the site, or something alittle more phone friendly?
I myself look at this site in my phone a lot and I'm sure others do too.
Just curious.
What are you looking at? You think baby's don't like video games? THEN YOU DON'T KNOW SHIT ABOUT BABIES!!

I think the forum would need to be operating with vbulletin for that to happen.  I'm guessing they're using PHBB right now?


Vbulletin costs money, PHBB is free.

I'm not to sure myself, I would love to see it happen. Maybe even have my hands in helping. I just suck at code lol.

I think V2 site should be finished first.

Was it 2 or 3 years ago when Snowcone showed that.

Saw it before Forum Admins were kicked out of that one bastion of solitude.
Probably still visible there?

You guys (the site admins/owners) should set up a little donation pool to upgrade to vbulletin.  Or offer "premium" memberships like many forms do in order to help fund such upgrades and whatnot.  I'd be down to toss 10-20 bucks into the pot  :)

The version looked very promising.

Don't you mean the Fortress Of Solitude? ;)
Or wasn't that a Superman reference? In the latter case please irgnore this comment and I'll head back to my Secret Citadel :D

I'm done giving vBulletin my money. The $160 startup cost didn't sound so bad, but you have to keep paying if you want upgrades. This site runs on Simple Machines Forum, which looks to be free, open source, and reasonably full-featured. Try one of these:
