The Seanian Empire

Are there admin spots open?

EDIT: Why are the forums using phpbb? I'm good at using that but IPB is much better.

Yeah, Invisionboard is the next best thing to vbulletin, and it's free which is a plus. Phpbb just has very ugly smilies.

From what I've been told, phpBB is better if you know php really well because it's far more customisable. Invision is better if you aren't very techy and just want a half decent Admin CP. vB is better than both by a long way, though.

And yeah, they cost, but I'm not doing anything with my spare right now - I have three, Daryl uses one for The Basement and I use one for Aiyon. tGA's vB is Raistlin's.

As for "Is it really that much better?" I believe the answer would be "Yes" but it all depends on how much you intend on working with it. Any board is okay if you just want somewhere to post at, but if you want all the extras then vB is far superior. Also it's a lot easier to get help for from the people we know because most of us use vB and not phpBB and therefore can offer more advice.

EDIT: Glad to see there's a 'phase 3' or something. I've talked to a few people about such an eyeson empire before. It'd kick arse. Also, the only 'stipulation' of using a vB of mine is that I get to be an admin, but that also means you can feel free to get me to do whatever you might need. :p

I registered! Yay for me. Mainly coz i like you guys.

Said the URL couldn't be found :(

Welp, I can get you IVB too if you want.

If you want to be a mod you have to be a part of the site staff. To do that, go to the site and think of something that should be added. Make it up in some form or another, and submit it. If I put it up, I'll mod you and you can help out in the staff forum.

I guess if you work as hard as Ashley and I are then you deserve an admin spot. We already have me, Ashley, Sean, and if we change to vB we'll have BoB as an admin. You'd have to work on the site several hours a day to earn that one though.

I've used IPB, vB, and phpBB now. So far I like phpBB second best, vB best, and IPB least, though it's still nice.
