Welcome to our vBFAQ contest for July 2007.

We are doing sort of a BOTM contest - with a twist. We want you to tell us ALL about your forum!

Entry is FREE -- Here is how you enter this contest -

Start your own thread in this forum. Then tell us, in detail, about your forum.

What is the site about (theme)?
How did your forum get started / Why did you start it?
What hacks do you have installed and what do they do?
What makes your site unique?
Tell us about your members, what makes them special?
Why should your forum win this contest?A good example of an entry can be seen HERE (http://www.vbulletin-faq.com/forum/showthread.php?t=8827)

On August 1st, the contest will close to new entries and the vBFAQ moderation staff will reduce the list down to 5-10 finalists.

Part of what we will use to determine finalists is your posting here on vBFAQ during the month. The more posts - the better chance you have to win. One post wonders who only post once in an attempt to win the contest, will likely not become finalists. Those who make quality posts on vBFAQ stand the best chance.
There is no minimum post requirement to win, we just want to see you become a part of our community. So dont bother post whoring.Once we have narrowed the field to finalists, we will post a poll and the vBFAQ members will vote the final winner.


If you win --- You get to choose one prize, from the following list of prizes:

Banner ad Graphics package from Caddyman (Chase) (Header image, matching buttons, banners etc.)
Flashchat chatroom script. We'll even install it for you, if you like!
Skin of choice from vBMode.com (http://www.vbmode.com/products.php)
Owned vBulletin license
vBa Links Directory (http://www.vbadvanced.com/products.php?do=productinfo&p=2) License

I have one suggestion for you, most of us already have VB licences, so the prize of an owned licence whilst generous may be excessive.

Have you thought about offering an Owned License Renewal which will not only cost less but may be more useful to many of your members?

Thank you for the suggestion. We may consider this as a prize in a future contest. :)
The winner has the choice of the vb license or any one of the other wonderful prizes.

Plus - the owned license is actually the prize awarded to vBFAQ for winning Board of the Year - I felt since our members are a big part of why we won, we should give the prize away to our members. So its one of the prize options along with a number of other prizes. Maybe someone with a leased license wins and can upgrade.

Your forum is on the internet, right?

They can go to your site and see what you're up to. :)

We're not going to be doing this contest every month. If we do have one next month, it will have a different theme.

Issue?

I came across this site today via a link in a signature on VBulletin.org. You say people have more chance by posting and having a decent post count. Obviously my post count will be very low and I cant exactly go round spamming your boards to get a fairly high post count.

I just think its wrong to down rank users who could have potential to really help support the board.

meh, I dunno, just something I thing the Admins should take into account.

Luke, the rules don't say that those who have the highest post count will be considered. It does say that those who do post after entering their site in the contest will be given higher consideration.

Obviously those who haven't posted at all since submitting their site (more than half of the entrants), or only once or twice, aren't really interested in participating in this vB community, right?

Today is the day!!

I wonder how you guys find out the top contestants?

Peggy

The finalists will be chosen according to the rules we outlined in the sticky post ;)
