3 offers to buy AdminBB - Too bad not selling :P

As xenforo has no merge feature just converting only, so I would just have to buy the domain
I might as well wait for a merge system.

 

What was the other admin site everyone keeps referring to? you piqued my interest

 

Buy out competition.

 

Ill give you 1 cent (1p) for AdminBB :}

 

Actually, there is a way to import other database's but you need a vbulletin or an ipb license to use the tools unless you know someone who could do it for you. Just convert the whateverforum database to ipb or vb then import external data via the admincp.

And i like getting offers too it makes me feel as if i have done something very right when people offer nice sums of money for a forum

 

Ya, if you visit a xenforo support forum, their users know how to do it. I remember their being a community a few months ago called xenforo fans.

 

Well theres a difference between merging and converting, you can only convert on xenforo and not merge..

 

Well, ask around and see if there's a way to merge. You have some funds right? Merge some other communities here, and grow your community two fold.

 

Thats the problem, I can convert other forums but not merge... so If I converted a forum on adminbb it would overwrite the current forum and we would loose everything and get the content from that forum. But when you merge they all convert together in one whole board. And xenforo dosent have a merge system yet.

 

Have you asked the xenforo developers? I'm sure Kier or someone could make you one - but no, that's when you make another database, so that you don't lose any data, aye?

 

They have bigger things to worry about than helping me lol.. if they were to make one available im sure they would release the merge system to all xenforo license owners. Im sure I read somewhere they have one planned.

 

I'd never merge with a dead forum, whether for free or for money. To me, someone who just clear out of the blue who offers to buy your forum is just downright desperate and greedy more than anything. In this case it's cheating, and I would never go for it.

 

The guy was a great guy he had no bad intentions but yea there wouldn't be much for me in the merge other than help his dead forum while I would loose my active forum.

 

I didn't say if this guy was good or not, I just don't think it's such a hot idea. Sure, you'll both get something out of it, but at the same time, just to make a profit and have a more successful community, this can be seen as being greedy, and again, in some cases it could even be considered cheating, because you're using someone else's stats to boost up your own, so you're really not working to your own potential at all, really.

 

This statement plus your username made me laugh.

Actually your wrong kaiser, the import feature allows you to import databases into the existing installation of xenforo and "merge" them together. Try it out on your local pc its pretty simple

 

I'd recommend buying out the inactive forum, bring on the staff team, and go from there. A community enjoys an active place, not a dead place, where topics go unanswered. It would make a great merge.

 

Well, he could probably bring on SOME of the staff team if he really wanted to, but for a forum like this you wouldn't need a package team, since they don't offer packages here. And I suppose if there's more similarities than differences, then maybe he could keep some of the other guys' crew on the team.

 

Ya, so true. And plus, one that runs an admin forum, ideas are technically the same, so thus, there you go, create an even better community, that's twice as strong.

 

Thats what im doing here
