DONATION REQUEST: New Forum Software

Hey guys,

As you know, the forum software we use today is several years outdated. We've been with vbulletin for quite awhile and we of course would like to stay with vbulletin, however there are cheaper ways to get good forum software.

One way is to go with ipboard, which is vbulletins competitor and the most similar and probably easier to maintain. It's also nearly $100 less than vbulletin licenses. It runs roughly $250 for a license.

Another way would be to stick with vbulletin. For a suave $390 we can continue their legacy within our forum community.

I've been thru days of old code making sure the forum software will work, but with the old use of defunct php and sql, bots are easily able to break and inject their malware and/or software into our http headers.

I've exhausted every resource I have. Simply put, we need to move to a newer software base.

In ending, as we hate to even ask, we need donations. At current we have ~$300 which we plan to use for server expenses and hosting for the next year.

If you have anything to give to the community, or are able to help out, please donate by using the donate button at the top of the forum.

Thanks everyone.
