Exclamation Mark Welcome to VulcanBagger.com!

Hi Everyone! I just want to introduce myself and tell you a little about our new forum here. I have been working with Trip to get the old forum converted to this new format.

There were a ton of reasons why we had to get away from the old forum, but I'll keep it short. Basically, we had no future there. There were a lot of restrictions, not a lot of features, and the bigger we grew, the less chance we had of keeping a reliable forum going (or any forum at all).

We are now on Vbulletin brand forum software, which is the best out there. We now have more control, and you, the members, will have more features. This move to the new forum was a lot of work. I personally have a ton of work into the conversion already, but it's well-worth it to have a much better forum platform!

Obviously we're still working out a lot of little kinks here and there, so please be patient with us over the next couple weeks. Eventually we'll get to everything.

Thanks again, and I hope everyone loves the new forum!

Mike

Your efforts are appreciated. Now I just have to figure out this new site. In other words, I'm here - I'm just not sure where here is.

Change is good. Like the old forum, we will all get used to it in our own way. Hats off to you and Trip for the work you put into this new site.

It looks great, Big Guy. I know what kind of work it is to migrate a large forum. Your efforts are appreciated. I visit other forums that use this same software and it is hands down better than Proboards. It also has a great search engine.
