The Central Coast Mariners Fans Forum is moving!
As a step in that process this board is closed.
Go to marinators.net/forum/index.php?board=5.0
for the Ausstralian Football board on the new site.
Yes, after 3 years, 1 months and 2 weeks (plus over 5K threads and 155K posts) fun, fun, fun - the Central Coast Mariners Fans Forum is migrating from our old ‘Proboards’ site to a new site based on ‘SMF’ (Simple Machines) software and system.
This base site and software is generously provided and supported by Mad Eye Deer (‘Adz’ the very key man) in conjunction with the Marinators Club, and is integrated with www.marinators.net web site as a ‘one stop’ fans place for all Mariners fans. The Fans Forum operations, administration, and moderation remain as a separate entity - as it has been in the past.
The Marinators Club will now also have there a separately managed Forum with dedicated boards for MC business and communications with fans. Watch for news from the MC.
Where do I go? Just click on the link below:
marinators.net/forum/index.php
When?
Now, or any time over the next week if possible (we hope to progressively close the Proboards site by the week starting 17 December 2007. You may of course register on the new site at any time in future.
What do I do?
If you have already registered on that site to use the test forum - just start posting everything there from now on!
If you are NOT already registered, you will need to set yourself up there. Click on ‘Register’
You will be asked a series of questions. For Username we suggest you use the same Username as on Proboards (for continuity and easy identification by your forum friends). Note, there is a special place where you will have to match a series of letters (this is to protect the forum).
If you wish you can PM the Forum admins via username ‘fadmin’ – this will reach the admins and moderators – and ask for your old post count to be brought across (just give us some time please).
Why?
As well as ensuring that there is one easy location to go to for all fans activity now and in future, SMF is more modern forum software – it has some nice features for you, the user, to play with, eg. ‘Show unread posts since last visit’, ‘Show new repliers to your posts’. Take some time to see and get used to the other features built around your own profile setup.
What about the old forum?
This will be progressively closed but will be retained as an Archive of our years of discussions and the wild ride we all have had - you will be able to locate threads and posts, but not post anything new – see the new special board for links. On the new forum we will in future be linking some ‘golden threads’ so the interesting discussions of the past can be relived, or seen by new users – keep an eye out for that.
Questions?
If you have any questions on this communication, or the new Forum, or site – simply reply to this PM, or PM the moderators on Proboards, and we will answer as soon as possible. In future PM the mods on listed on the new boards.
Note: Re-read the Forum rules, which remain for the new site. Your posts are your responsibility and yours alone – the Admins, Mad Eye Deer, the Marinators Club, CCLC, or CCMFC do not take responsibility for your rule breaking!
Go the Mariners!
