Smashers,

Smashboards recently underwent the largest transformation in years. This transformation occurred in order to prepare for the coming years and position Smashboards as the largest and best forum for the Smash community. While the last few months has already seen huge changes for the forums - things are only getting started. We are still undergoing cleanup after the migration from vBulletin to Xenforo - fixes, changes, and improvements are occuring daily. Bionic has thus far done an outstanding job spearheading the migration and transition, however, if Smashboards is to maintain it's status as the hub of the Smash community, it will take a community effort to build and support the boards.

Starting today, we will be looking for Smashers who are interested in helping with the development of Smashboards and, in particular, the development of a new frontpage. This is a chance to implement something thousands of Smashers will use daily, as well as potentially execute currently unthought of ideas. Due to the technical aspects of this work, not everyone can be a developer. If you are interested in helping with the backend of Smashboards, please start a conversation (Xenforo!) with me (AlphaZealot) and include:
  • History in the Smash community
  • Web development experience
  • Familiarity with code/servers/Xenforo
  • Anything else that may be helpful
We are looking for a few good Smashers who are willing to help the community by volunteering their time and expertise - if this interests you are you know a Smasher who may be interested, reach out so that we can make sure the new frontpage, as well as the forums as a whole, are developed to the excellent quality the Smash community deserves.
Thanks, and if this applied to you, go start that conversation!
