November 2014 Board of the Month Nominations

This is the nomination thread for Board of the Month for November 2014!

This contest is for vBulletin powered boards only. (vBulletin + a 3rd party CMS or such is OK, VB needs to be part of the site.)

If you want a chance to be in next month's vote, start reading below.

Please note the BOTM Rules here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/info.php?do=botm
If you break a rule your site may be removed from nominations and/or voting so be sure you read these before entering.

The rules for this thread:

• Only post nominations or seconds, no other discussion, please.
• All seconds are to be placed in 1 post, with a max of 3.
• All seconds should include the word "second" or "+1".
• You may only nominate your own site.
• All posts must be in English.
• All sites must have/be vBulletin Powered Forums

Please abide by these rules or your post will be removed.

Nominations will be accepted until the last day of this month (Close to midnight- maybe a few hours earlier, maybe a few hours later. There is no exact time.)

Note- In the event it is deemed there have not been enough entries or seconds the deadline may be extended an additional month.

When nominating please post the site name, URL to the forum, a short description what makes your board stand out from default vBulletin, and a reason for nomination that will motivate others to second the nomination. If the staff feels that a nomination post is too promotional it will be edited accordingly.

Any sites without a name, URL, description and reason for nomination will NOT be entered into the poll. Please ensure that your nomination is in the format:

URL: http://www.vbulletin.org - this must be clickable and a real URL (One link only.)
Description: Official vBulletin Modifications Site
Reason for Nomination: Not Nominated. This is an example nomination.

DO NOT STRAY FROM THE ABOVE FORMAT. Save your creativity for your FORUM- this is not the place for it.

When seconding sites, please ensure that you use the same post for the maximum of 3 allowed seconds. Any seconds not located in your first seconding post will not be counted. Please also ensure that you quote the nomination post you are seconding in your post (Use Multi-Quote Option if you are nomination multiple boards). If there is no name or URL provided then the post will be ignored when the nominations are counted.

Also, please make sure that you are seconding a forum that has already been nominated by its forum owner. Any seconds for a forum that has not been nominated yet will be counted as null and void.

NOTES:
You MUST enter the URL to your forum in the "URL:" line. DO NOT put a link with your site's name. Your entry will be rejected. Only 1 link is allowed.

You MUST put all your seconds in ONE post. If that means editing your original post to add more seconds, then DO it. We throw out seconds that are made in multiple posts.

Please post only nominations or seconds, NO "Thank you" posts are needed, they clutter the thread and will be DELETED.

IMPORTANT inquiries regarding the BOTM Contests should be sent via PM to BirdOPrey5, or an Administrator.

No Stu, I will not allow this due to this forum area on your site:
http://www.p0wersurge.com/forums/nulling/

It has specific instructions on how to null vBulletin, it also houses many re-released modifications (without permission I might add). Based on that alone I will not allow this submission as it promotes illegal activity and the download links to "ripped" mods are illegal as well (copyrights, no permissions given to re-release etc).
