This is the nomination thread for Board of the Month of October/November 2008.

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

Nominations will be accepted until the 30th of September 2008.

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 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.

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!

Site Name: IrishRepublican.net
URL: http://www.irishrepublican.net
Description: Irish Republican Discussion Forum.
Reason for Nomination: A large community built over a short number of months. It is the only online community of Irish Republicans to discuss pressing issues in Ireland. Republicans are against partition of Ireland, and there is a broad spectrum of political thinkers on the forum to discuss Irish Republicanism and world freedom struggles and news. It would make so many of us proud to recieve BOTM.

Site Name: Talk Jesus
URL: www.talkjesus.com
Description: True Non-Denominational Christian Website, 100% Scripture Based
Reason for Nomination:

Talk Jesus is a very clean forum, no advertisements anywhere and not cluttered. It is completely organized, fast loading pages, well moderated and 100% sincere to its purpose which is: discussions of the Holy Bible, Jesus Christ (GOD) and preaching the truth as told by Scripture. There is no room to allow for personal religious/own version of GOD and the Holy Bible. It does not allow for debates, therefore refraining from being hypocritical of its sole purpose.

The forum is very friendly, honest, edifying. There are over 300+ arcade games all family friendly/kid safe as well. A lot of great features including personal journals, prayer events, hundreds of testimonies of miracles performed by GOD in people's personal encounters, complete online Bible, bible dictionary, colorful high quality Scriptural maps, a high quality live chat room that is actually stable on high number of concurrent chatters.

The forum is very active, nearly 12,000 members and on average about 50-100 posts per day. All registrations are moderated first to weed out any potential troublemakers with ill motives. All photos are also moderated first as well for obvious reasons. Talk Jesus forums has a built in live chat with over 70+ songs in a neatly integrated mp3 player (left column of the live chat). Our chat is able to handle well over 50 concurrent users, especially during our occasional massive prayer events.

Talk Jesus has many awesome features to make it a one-for-all amazing experience to be part of the community. A quick run down of the features provided are (obviously mostly mods taken from this site)...
  • personal journals
  • live chat w/ mp3 player
  • iSpy
  • Tag Clouds view & search
  • arcade games with 300+ kid-safe games, nicely categorized
  • streaming radio & tv player of Christian stations, via a small pop-up window
  • Stumble Upon like feature, shows random threads upon click
  • Bible Glossary - over 500+ terms included
  • High quality Bible / Scripture Maps (over 100+)
  • Complete online Bible in dozen+ translations, MHC, search function, etc
  • Scriptural Answers (ie, FAQ like questions/answers on common Bible topics) alphabetically sorted in a dedicated forum.

Site Name: Fitaholic.com
Forum: www.fitaholic.com/forum
Profile Demo: fitness tracker
Profile Demo: pregnancy tracker

Description: A forum for fitness enthusiasts. A site designed exclusively around fitness and the Journey that one takes to a healthier lifestyle.

The Fitness tracker is a state of the art tracker that tracks your weekly measurements, photos, and fitness notes a long the way. Other members will become inspired by your own Journey.

The Pregnancy Tracker is one of a kind: While my wife and I were expecting our third child we wanted to make sure that everyone could see her progress but amazingly, there is nothing on the internet that allows a female to fully track her progress in a chronological order. Now someone expecting can track her weekly changes via measurements, photos, and notes. No matter how far your family and friends live from you they can see the changes that are being made to your body on a weekly basis if you chose to update your tracker that often.

Additional Features:
free site
fitness ebooks
Fitness Only Video Tab (1,000's)-----------------------------------------thank you vbtube
Trainer Questions
Yahoo Q & A Session -------------------------------------------------------thank you gio~ologist
Embeded Videos in posts/thread etc...
Fitaholic Diet (used to train beginners and competitors)
Fitaholic Routine (used to train beginners and competitors)
Fitaholic Supplement Line (through Advocare)
Fitaholic Cothing Line

Sidebar Features
Updated Newest Member Photos
Updated Newest Member Latest Profile Photos
Updated Newest Member Journey Logs
Updated Member Profiles
Updated Exercise Video of the Week
Updated Program of the Month Video

Reason for Nomination: The Pregnancy Tracker and Fitness Tracker alone are reason enough for nomination; but the joy that is received from watching people literally change their life through fitness and how their life is changed through the birth of a child is amazing. My only heartache is that this site was not created when my wife and I had our first child so that our family/friends could have been more involved even though they were hundreds of miles away.

Please nominate Fitaholic.com for BOTM - - -
Thank you for your consideration, and understand our site is only a few weeks old!

Site Name: Nintendo World Forum
URL: http://www.wiipals.net/Forum/
Description: Nintendo Wifi Discussion
Reason for Nomination: Layout is very clean and appealing. Multiple mods and template customizations unique to this site. Check out the modifications to the postbit as well as the member profiles and member list with regards to user "friend code" distribution.
I try to keep it clean and limit the number of ads (compared to some other gaming forums out there sheesh!) Weve even created (by hand) our own "Wifi Hub" for Nintendo-ites to play in! Live flashchat has about 40 users in it at any given time and we're gaining over 1000 members/month (3400 last month ) Check out our community and Id appreciate any feedback!

Just installed a fully functional Gifts System that updates a credit system via paypal

Feel free to login to test the site out!
(removes some ads/welcome text)

Login: testing
Pass: testing

PS: Im running 3.6.9 for those of you who haven't upgraded yet.. all of the mods and template customizations seen on the site run fine with it so dont be too afraid to upgrade! (Just FYI)
