    Official Serious Sam/Croteam Forums switch to vBulletin

    The official forums for Serious Sam(The First and soon-to-be-released Second Encounter) have been converted from ikoncrap(also known as ikonboard, ikonbugs, ikoncan'tdealwithdates, ikonslowdownyourserverwithcgi, etc... ) as of last thursday. Boy was it fun converting them, but I finally got it finished, and the community loves it. I'm sure many of you probably haven't heard of the boards, but probably have heard of Serious Sam, and hopefully have played it as well.

      cool

      Very good looking board! I know people lean towards the light colored backgrounded boards for the vb awards, but this one could be a winner in the future. Great colors!

                Were you running IB2x or IB3x?

                If IB3x...how

                If IB2x. I wish I never upgraded to IB3

                IB3 converter seems to not been be under development. Gold version is out this weekend. Perhaps someone can start developing...for a $20 reward? Contact me if you can:

                      You're welcome..but seriously, ikonboard(atleast 2.x) wasn't that great. You can't deny it had tons of bugs, couldn't deal with dates(oh no, the millenium...), and did slow down the server with its cgi/perl usage, and the way it was used. Rebuilding the forum index every time a post is made/edited? That's absurd!

                      I was sorta joking, but there was seriousness in my post as well...ikonboard ended up causing us lots of problems. Its a great system for low traffic boards, but when you get up to 6,000 members and 70,000 posts, its flaws show, a lot.
