Well as i said most of the SSC is cool with it and the details are pretty simple. All we ask is (assuming we use the SSC forums) 1) that the SF members please continue to respect the SSC's ways and its members and we tried to keep things as fair aspossible for both groups which is why the SSC staff agreed that the SF staff if they wish can keep their moderator and admin posisitons on the SSC boards again this is assuming that we stay with the SSC forums. please feel free to throw some suggestions at us as we are also open for details as well lol |

Please take none of this to any offense. yeah the thing I'm wondering is... you wanted us because of our forums...but you want us to get rid of them. I'm wondering what would happen to the rp and shining fist weekly challenges just to name a few forums that have been up for a while. I'll be blunt when I say why should we be the ones to move to the SSC boards? |

Well we DID want to come here at first, i don't know if you have heard the news but the SSC recently had to abandone its old forums (not even a week ago) and move to new ones so the SSC members don't want to have to move again. Your concern for your old forums isin't a problem as the SSC has no objection to having them moved or recreated there. in my opinion the SSC is a little "tight" with its forums with them focusing mostly on brawl. so having an RP forums and whatnot might help expand the SSC. as for the "blunt answer" The SSC forums can be changed and altered easier to make SF more comfortable, with more features and more customizable then invisionfree (your current board software) |

yes I understand but we aren't just talking about forums either (I'd like you to try to recreate the entire rp back at SSC) we're talking podcasts, smilies, rank titles for smash quest, etc. Yes things like the blog and the sahining fist youtube address can be changed but why should we go through all that work when SSC as you have said recently started fresh. Almost all the SSC members have a SF account thanks to Impakings work back in the old site. We'd be going from 800 topics and 15,969+ posts to 73 topics and 470 posts. I have no problem moving, my concern is that SFF is much more logical as a board than SSC. If it had been the old boards of SSC then this would be completely different. I'm talking about what we can do but what makes more sense. much in the same way the online games portion of SSC can be recreated here and would be much easier and not as necessary as a RP recreate. Further more, things like a skin change, friend code finder and banner change isn't as hard of a concept as moving entire forums. SSC wouldn't be made inferior and rather be made as equals to the shining fists just as SD was treated the same way and was given equal power. I know the shining fists may not be the most active site all the time but we aren't a second rate clan, the clan is well expanded (which may be the reason for inactivity) even beyond the site itself major changes would have to be made. The site of shining fists can be made to look much in the same way as the SSC so the only thing to discuss is the forums itself. It should therefore stand with reason that this site whether it becomes the new SSC or stays SFF, the site choosen as the host. After all didn't you agree that we do provide more forum activity? |

Well the SSC hasin't actually started "fresh" alot of our members that have been with us from the very begining are still here with us, we simply... moved? lol Merges aren't easy, we are both proud of our boards and its not easy on the members either as it forces one group to move to the other. But the SSC boards (though may be harder to move to) may actually be worth the move, The things you mentiond above liek the PodCast and Smash Quest can be quickly moved over, and you have to remember the SSC also has its own features as well, a skin selector with over 15 diffrent skins, a reputation system, a blog system, joinable groups and much more. Things like the features above cannot be moved over as Zeta codes cannot be used on invisionfree boards as well zeta skins will not work on invisionfree as well. We also feel that if you moved in with us that SF would be treated as equals as well which is why the SSC also agreed that any staff members you have here (moderators, global mods and admins) would keep their staff positions if they moved over to the SSC as well. if the SSC moved here the result to your board status would remain the same, the SSC members dont post all tooften on the SSC boards so i don't think they would post to often here either (seeing as you stated that most SSC members already have an account here, i assume most are rarely used) if you brough your board activity over to the SSC things would even out nicely i think. |

Zom I know your group has been out for a while, but we aren't talking seniority we're talking about the boards themselves and from what we have considered, there is a lot more to be moved from SFF to SSC than vice versa. Also as for the skin selector <script language="JavaScript">//Random Skinned Quotes//By Neon_//thnx and help from: darkturky//quote arrayquoteList = new Array();//skin 1quoteList[0] = "skin1 quote1";quoteList[1] = "skin1 quote2";quoteList[2] = "skin1 quote3";quoteList[3] = "skin1 quote4";quoteList[4] = "skin1 quote5";//skin 2quoteList[5] = "skin2 quote1";quoteList[6] = "skin2 quote2";quoteList[7] = "skin2 quote3";quoteList[8] = "skin2 quote4";quoteList[9] = "skin2 quote5";//skin 3quoteList[10] = "skin3 quote1";quoteList[11] = "skin3 quote2";quoteList[12] = "skin3 quote3";quoteList[13] = "skin3 quote4";quoteList[14] = "skin3 quote5";//skin 4quoteList[15] = "skin4 quote1";quoteList[16] = "skin4 quote2";quoteList[17] = "skin4 quote3";quoteList[18] = "skin4 quote4";quoteList[19] = "skin4 quote5";//skin 5quoteList[20] = "skin5 quote1";quoteList[21] = "skin5 quote2";quoteList[22] = "skin5 quote3";quoteList[23] = "skin5 quote4";quoteList[24] = "skin5 quote5";//randomization for the quotesvar rrrandomnum = (Math.round((Math.random()*4))+1)var quote_number = ((5 * (numberOfTheSkin)) - (rrrandomnum))//remember variablevar quote = quoteList[quote_number];</script> that is a skin selector that works perfect with invision. Finding a skin selector isn't a problem at all. That goes for any of Zetas gadgets and hoopdie rides. If this is about Zeta boards themselves than please don't be fooled, Zetaboards isn't all that special. I'll admit I'm kind of stubborn with the whole board change and my biggest problem is that you want me to us to get rid of our active boards and fill up SSC's inactive ones. I think it should be obvious that the board with active forums should be the board used. And enlighten me Zom, how in the world do you plan on moving the entire catagory of smash quest? |

Zom, Can you shrink the SSC boards to the size of usual invision boards like the SF boards? I'm just curious. |
