Title: Merging.
Post by: Vaatix on June 23, 2008, 10:52:38 PM
 Those of you in chat or who regularly visited Power On at least through the last week know about the merging, for those who don't you only need to know a couple things.
We're gaining a few staff members.
We'll be at forums.projectfcd.com instead of our current URL, but you'll still be able to get to it from all the current domains, so don't worry about that.

I'm finishing up everything on Wednesday night. Expect downtime then between 9 PM PST and midnight.

Well, at least it's you and not Silver who is doing the merging.

Yay, dates.

I'll find something else to do for a few hours at that time, so I'm not too concerned.

In his defense, we are essentially merging with Hot Topic.

As long as the place looks the same, I'm good.

I do believe we are getting a wicked new theme, home page, and a new board or two, so, won't exactly look the same.

The new theme is amazing, that is, if Vaati only brings that one, if he brings more, it'll be better.

Yeah, they're completely competent and emotionally/socially-structured for running a forum.

I still personally think our URL should be nsiderforums.org, because forums.projectfcd.com sounds like we're the official FCD forums. It also sounds more professional and I've spread nsiderforums.org everywhere.

I don't know why you even bought that domain, silver. Nsiderforums.org does not sound more professional, get that out of your head. Besides, moving away from nsider, you'd think we would want to not use a domain with nsider right in it.

I agree. But as long as www.nsiderforums.org still redirects to here, I'm fine. :P

But what's our name gonna be when we merge?

Just to be clear, we are still having nsiderforums.org redirect here, right?

I'm actually editing the redirect values right now, though it looks like it still does the job anyways.
