Developer Last Online: Jan 1970 
This is the nomination thread for Board of the Month September.
Please note the BOTM Rules here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/info.php?do=botm Nominations will be accepted until the 31st of August. Also, please note, that the current voting thread for BOTM August will remain open as well until the 31st of August 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:
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! Show Your Support

Site Name: Stirrdup
URL: http://www.stirrdup.com Description: Social news site similiar to Digg and Reddit, but built upon the idea that the content that is the most interesting isn't necessarily the same as what everyone agrees with. Stories gain points through users doing what they would normally do while using a site (clicking links and leaving comments) and the ones that gain the most interest are promoted to the main page. If they continue to hold interest, they will stay higher on the page until the time weighted system slowly moves them down to allow more fresh content in. This fixes the "bury brigade" censorship that plagues Digg and Reddit. Reason for Nomination: The entire site is implemented using vbulletin plugins. Not a single file change. Really shows the flexibility of the system.

Site Name: BigSoccer - Share the Passion!
Site URL: http://www.bigsoccer.com Description: BigSoccer is the leading forum for soccer fans around the world. Now 12 years old we have over 100,000 registered users, serve 820,000 uniques a month, and served 20mm forum pages in June. Our members talk about every soccer club, league and tournament on earth. BigSoccer is one of the largest vB's, and one of the earliest, since the v1beta days. Reason for Nomination: We relaunched our site just days before the end of last month's nominating process. It was a complete revamp, with major functionality extensions built in vB and vBadvanced. We've reskinned the site, built a personalized navigation tool that remembers your prefered state of which categories are open and closed, and added a "digg" tool, for both external links and internal threads. The new dynamic homepage makes use of Ajax and CSS, plus personalization, to give you an alternative view into the forums, or forum category, or forum itself. You now have an ability to sort by various measures of popularity (a mix of diggs, replies, views, and time) or last post time (ie latest threads), and the HP will remember your preference the next time you come back. This provides you a more intuitive insight into where the action is in the forums and allows people to find valuable and interesting content in areas of the site they might normally have noticed, due to our size and depth.

Site Name: Starcraft Vanilla
URL: http://www.starcraftvanilla.com Description: Discussion for the up and coming Starcraft 2, will be offering downloads ranging from RPG's, to Bots on battle.net when SC2 is Released. Reason for Nomination: A fairly new/low traffic site, offering up a place for people to get together and gossip about the release about starcraft 2. (Greatest game ever :P) I would love for this site to get some exposure since this is my first site and boy is it time consuming. But, this would be very rewarding for me, if this site was nominated. And also if not for me do it for SC2!

Site Name: Virtual American Airlines
URL: http://www.virtualaa.com Description: Virtual American Airlines is a site dedicated to simulating real world American Airlines operations, by using Microsoft's Flight Simulator software to allow it's members (pilots) to fly scheduled AA flights and subsequently accumulate flight hours. Reason for Nomination: We at Virtual American Airlines strive on quality and this is clearly apparent by the way we maintain and operate our website. But what really sets us apart from the rest of the Virtual Airlines in the flightsimming community is our family-oriented environment. We have been together as a "family" since the year 2000. We originally started out as a Virtual Airline named AirPUERTORICO. We then went through some changes and transitions, but throughout all these years, we have stayed together. I really hope you guys enjoy our website. Like I said before, we are all about quality and putting out the best that we have to offer.
