[December 2007] BOTM Nomination Thread

This is the nomination thread for Board of the Month of October.

Please note the BOTM Rules here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/info.php?do=botm

Nominations will be accepted until the 30st of November. Also, please note, that the current voting thread for BOTM November will remain open as well until the 30th of November as well.

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:

Quote:

Description: Official vBulletin Modifications Site
Reason for Nomination: Not Nominated. This is an example nomination.

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 include the site name or URL for the site you are seconding in your post. 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.

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

Any queries regarding the BOTM Contests should be sent via PM to Danny.VBT.

Best of luck to all nominees!

Description: A forum that tries to bring things from all corners of the computer world and all corners of the real world together! We range from politics, to media, to computer programming, to circuitry.
Reason for Nomination: This forum / site has been my biggest hobby for the past year. I have put my blood into it. I've been abandoned many times by my other moderators and administrators but we still stay strong. Our default skin is 100% original and we have an interesting rating system. We have quite an array of mods, wonderful members, and posts and threads.

I second this site

[Aunt Clara]

Site Name:
Aunt Clara's Kitchen: Dominican Cooking

URL:
www.dominicancooking.com

Description:
Aunt Clara's Dominican Kitchen is a website dedicated to promoting the Dominican Republic's culinary culture.

Reason for Nomination:
We turned vBulletin into a fantastic CMS which is fully integrated with our forum. I have to say that the two months spent on another version of the site based on another CMS was a waste of time. vBulletin did exactly what I wanted.

Our pre-vB site is 5.5 years old. We've been running on vB for over a year now. Our site is very popular for our niche, and we have basically no competition. vB has made our site interactive and has improved visitor loyalty tremendously.
